We just returned from an amazing week in Seattle and Vancouver. We walked the streets, up the hills, around the neighborhoods and into many, many restaurants. I ate salmon and drank coffee every day. We went for local wines and fresh food. It. Was. Delicious. Here’s a snapshot sampling of our food adventures:

At Seatown Snack Bar in Pike Place Market, Seattle. You have 5 types of smoked fish and fresh oysters from a bay nearby.

The humongous apple cinnamon roll from the Russian bakery Piroshky Piroshky, also in Pike Place Market, Seattle.

Espresso, flowers and our number block as we wait to split arugula and spinach lasagna at Oddfellows in Capitol Hill, Seattle.

James eats a monstrous, veggie-packed breakfast burrito at Bang Bang Cafe in Belltown, Seattle.

This isn’t the best photo of me or the food, but the Bibimbap (at Shilla Korean BBQ in the Uwajimaya Asian grocery in the International District, Seattle) was amazing.
