#seattle eats

That’s because Seattle doesn’t have any decent Mexican food lol. Honestly my go-to spots I’ve narrowed down to just two. One is a taco joint, Taqueria El Sabor up on Aurora.

They’re cheap and the eats are always chefs kiss 🤌🏼💋. Also Casco Antiguo, down in SLU, which is more of a sit down, drinks with friends vibe.

Honestly my favorite restaurant of all time in Seattle closed during the pandemic and I am still heartbroken.

For those of you wondering- Copal down in Pioneer Square was a beautiful joint that had “Latin American” influenced food- very tasty.

The staff and I were besties and the drinks were SO good. I’m very bummed they went out of business ☹️.

So with that said, I don’t go out much anymore, but if I had to choose I’d probably say Casco Antiguo is my best runner up.

Although I lived on Post Alley North for almost five years, just 10 blocks up from Pike Place, I had never set foot in the much raved about Pink Door until this fall. With virtually no signage and minimal lighting, I walked right by it at 8pm on a Wednesday in November, despite me having walked by the entrance at least a hundred times before. Despite doing so, the outside is so humbling that…

Tucked in the courtyard of one of the few brick buildings left in Seattle’s Belltown neighborhood sits La Fontana Siciliana. The Sicilian-inspired restaurant is located on the ground floor of an old brick building between 1st and 2nd avenue on Blanchard St. Red brick cradles the outdoor patio as you walk under a glass-roofed canopy past the wrought-iron gate. A blue-lined pool of fountains greet…

I went to Seattle again with my roommates earlier this month. I still stick to what I said before. I got the chance to try more food at Pike Market Place so that was great! 

Savory Mamma Melina Ristorante + Pizzeria: I tried the eggplant parmesan but it was more saucy than what a usual one tastes like. It was our first meal near the U District and it was pricy and not worth it Pike Place Chowder: Their scallop chowder was creamy and delicious. Oddly enough, I’m not a huge fan of shellfish or bivalves but Pike’s Chowder was a game changer. Piroshky Piroshky: A salmon shaped piece of bread?! Cute and not gimmicky (in my book at least) at all. I loved the quality of the bread and the herbs they used on the top. Inside the salmon pate was perfect and not overly fishy. I would snack on this frequently if I could!  Drinks RGB: Not a fan of their white peach flavor since it was too subtle (shocker!) and I’d stick to their pink guava The Bubble Tea Shop: Cute little boba spot in the Packing District looking food court by the Space Needle. Drinks were made with powder so it was truly eh Dessert Molly Moon’s: My first time here was pleasant and I wanted to try more flavors. This time around and got their salted caramel. It was quite reminiscent of butterscotch.  Daily Dozen: Mini doughnuts at Pike! Cinnamon sugar were lovely and I highly recommend going here if you have a craving for something small and sweet
