just some moments from our day and a half in seattle.
i love to eat and travel and document as much of it as i can.
we spent one and a half days in seattle on our way to iceland, arriving early one morning and leaving late the next afternoon. that means two chances for coffee and brunch!
we only had one chance for dinner in seattle, and it also happened to be james's birthday.
my family has always like going to steakhouses for a nicer dinner or special occasion. there are several we usually frequent, but we were looking to try something new and reserved a table at alexander's steakhouse
brooklyn's popular weekly smorgasburg market opened in LA at the alameda produce market! the weather was over 100 degrees, but there were still lots of people out to get their bagels, lobsters, pizza, ramen burgers, coffee, noodle bowls, tacos, banh mi, hot dogs, poke, popsicles, etc!
we are already huge fans of b.s. taqueria, and couldn't wait to try broken spanish! the food was ridiculous. comforting, flavorful and a whole new experience with mexican food for me.
i was quickly enamored with howlin' rays when they first started serving nashville-style hot chicken out of a food truck last year. now BACK with their own storefront in chinatown's far east plaza!
as a treat to myself, i booked dinner for us at Q sushi in downtown LA. it's omakase only, and a set price of $165 per person. it's unique as one of the very, very few places outside of japan serving edo-style sushi.
a couple weekends ago, the institute of domestic technology hosted swine and wine, a hog butchery demonstration by mallet and cleaver's jered standing.
