Sub-Sand – Chinatown-International District, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 14 May 2012

I had a sandwich for lunch every day during secondary school. It was a utilitarian meal of chicken or tuna with mayonnaise, Kraft Singles, tomato slices and iceberg lettuce. Weary of soggy bread, limp lettuce and mealy tomatoes, I avoided sandwiches in my university years and I still rarely them. A recent highlight was Fusion on [...]

Henry and Oscar’s – Belltown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 16 April 2012

I love the rhythm of weekend meals. They can be spontaneous or researched and made with intention. We were vacillating about brunch when we serendipitously stopped outside Henry and Oscar’s. Owned by the Big Picture, Henry and Oscar’s is located next to Boulangerie Nantaise in Belltown. The bar is at the front and the separate [...]

Chaats from Bombay pop up dinner by Devarshi Patel

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 14 December 2011

I check the Tom Douglas website regularly for new events. They’re only advertised online and sometimes tweeted. I noticed the chaats from Bombay pop up dinner by Devarshi Patel listed a couple of days after I returned from Australia. I made a purchase immediately as the first one, Thrilla in Manila pop up dinner by Herschell Taghap, [...]

Pop Kitchen + Bar – Queen Anne, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 10 November 2011

In a hurry for lunch, I walked briskly to Pop Kitchen + Bar. Located at the Experience Music Project, it  has a dual entrance from the EMP and the street. Leafy shrubs surround a patio with crimson chairs that would be lovely in summer or with outdoor heaters in winter on a clear, still day. [...]

Dot’s Delicatessen – Fremont, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 03 October 2011

In the Fremont Avenue North hub near Uneeda Burger and across from Paseo, and two doors up from the soon to be opened Book Larder, is Dot’s Delicatessen. On a temperamental autumn day, I met Myra and Shirley for lunch. Two bay windows display butcher accoutrement and frame the entrance. Dot’s Delicatessen is etched in gold and [...]

Treehouse Café – Lynwood, Bainbridge Island

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 23 August 2011

Like Seattle, Sydney is a city by the water. Neighbourhoods thrive by the ocean, along the river. Sydneysiders are mesmorised by the harbour, we all share a deep love for its beauty. The magnificence of Sydney Harbour is showcased every New Year’s Eve with a spectacular fireworks and pyrotechnics display. In the euphoria of the celebration, [...]

Macrina Bakery and Café – Belltown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Friday 19 August 2011

I love neighbourhood bakeries. They’re busy places with friendly staff and loyal customers. We’ve walked by Macrina Bakery and Café many times and finally visited this week for a rare midweek lunch date. We arrived during the peak of their lunch service and the queue was out the door. Facing the entrance is a refrigerated display of [...]

Local 360 and Local 360 Mercantile – Belltown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Sunday 10 July 2011

Summer may be late but spring definitely sprung in Seattle. On a pleasant warm day a few weekends ago, we moseyed down to Local 360 to try their spring menu. A pretty posy greeted us at our table and I love the rustic feel of the décor. In the short time it’s been open Local [...]

The Lucky Diner – Belltown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 05 July 2011

We had a comical meal at The Lucky Diner. It wasn’t an open mic show and there was no improv competition, our waitress was the entertainment. She was lovely and tried her best but she was clearly lost in the new Belltown eatery. There was much confusion when she realised her previous customers had left and [...]

FareStart – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 28 June 2011

Whether it’s slow food or organic, farm to table or nose to tail, local produce and goods have evolved from being a movement to the mainstream. We shop at farmers markets and buy sustainable seafood. There is immense interest in the origins of ingredients, and where and how our food is grown. At FareStart, it is as much about what is being cooked [...]
