The Flaky Tart – Crusty In A Good Way

I love my pastries and will travel far and wide where ever I am to nibble on something really good (well, this applies to all food – but particularly for pastries). So it’s a shame that while I had been… Continue Reading →

LPK's Culinary Groove

Picking-up some sweets for a celebration is usually pretty straight forward. This time though, we had an extra challenge: accommodating a gluten allergy. While I must admit my knowledge of where to procure gluten-free products isn’t vast, having frequented Queen… Continue Reading →

Seattle Day 3: Txori

Today was a relaxing kind of day. I had planned for some brunch and then lunch, but by the time we were ready, it turned out we were going to just do lunch. No loss, as breakfast/brunch can be had… Continue Reading →

Seattle Day 2: Elemental

During a previous visit to Seattle, we had a fantastic meal at Elemental. Lots of good food, interesting drinks, and the final bill was ridiculously well-priced. It’s the kind of thing that appeals to both stomachs and wallets (uh, but… Continue Reading →

I once had some awesome Pho at Times Square (on Hwy 7). But it was only once. For whatever reason, each bowl afterward could never compare to that first sublime sip of soup and noodle. Since moving downtown, Golden Turtle… Continue Reading →

The Ceili Cottage

Ceili Cottage (pronnounced kay-lee) is the newest venture (opened last week) by Starfish owner Patrick McMurray. While this had been on the radar, it wasn’t until the website had coughed up a menu that a dinner visit was decided upon…. Continue Reading →
