Café Suisse – Downtown, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 23 May 2012

I had noticed construction at Westlake Woodwerk several months ago. I always peeked into the wooden toy workshop when I walked by where the craftsmen working by the window in the natural light. The owners of Eurostyle Your Life has opened Café Suisse in the space. I had visited Switzerland once when I was a child [...]

Pop Kitchen + Bar – Queen Anne, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Tuesday 22 May 2012

Disclosure: I attended this event as a guest of GreenRubino. This is not a sponsored post. I had had lunch at Pop Kitchen + Bar prior to going home to Australia in November. I returned yesterday to sample their happy hour fare courtesy of GreenRubino. An afternoon downpour was looming and I was glad to be [...]

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 [...]

Crumble and Flake – Capitol Hill, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 10 May 2012

I’m a little homesick after a week in London. An Antipodean feels at home in the Old Dart. The accent, the vocabulary, the cuisine, the flag, ‘it’s the vibe‘! Our local bakery in Sydney was on my route home from work. I was tempted by their afternoon discounts of croissants, lamingtons, apple pies and vanilla [...]

Mobile Food Rodeo – Fremont, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 07 May 2012

We returned from a sodden and blustery week in London to a glorious Seattle spring weekend. I check the weather forecast morning and night, converting Fahrenheit to Celsius and scrutinise the predicted precipitation. I wither in the blistering sun in Australia and I wilt in the shades of grey of the Pacific Northwest. C’est la [...]

Ballard Pizza Company – Ballard, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 02 May 2012

This is my third post on pizza in three weeks! Ballard Pizza Company is the first of Ethan Stowell‘s Grubb Brothers ‘production’ of casual eateries. After cocktails (a refreshing Inverness mule of Scotch, ginger beer and fresh lime juice) and Mackie’s potato crisps at MacLeod’s Scottish Pub, we joined the Saturday night queue at Ballard [...]

Belle Epicurean – Madison Park, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Monday 30 April 2012

Seattle was blessed with consecutive weekends of glorious weather. The feeling of sunshine on bare skin is so restorative and we had a serene afternoon at the Washington Park Arboretum and the Japanese Garden, strolling and gazing at the blooming trees. We leisurely looped the arboretum and garden, and had afternoon tea at Belle Epicurean. [...]

U:Don – University District, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Thursday 26 April 2012

I’ve never owned a car. I’ve always lived in cities with an integrated public transport system where it’s cheap and convenient to navigate work and play on buses, ferries and trains. By American standard, Seattle has an adequate (and expanding) network of buses and light rail. The one exception that has foiled me time and [...]

Delancey – Ballard, Seattle

Posted by: Tossed Salads and Scrambled Eggs on: Wednesday 18 April 2012

I’m an expert at booking tickets. I note the on sale details on my calendar and I’m on the website at the precise time to click ‘purchase’. Thanks to this quirk I have learnt to brine and roast chicken, knead and throw pizza dough, bake macarons, and pleat dumplings at The Pantry at Delancey. Co-owners [...]

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 [...]
