Four words: meatball sandwich with gorgonzola. In a slightly dodgy part of town, only open on Tu-F at lunch (11-3:30, get there early).The pancetta is overrated in my opinion.
Working on the computer, at an independent coffee house, on a rainy day, with a a view of the Space Needle. Does it get more Seattle?
My foodie aunt says "Order a dozen of Fanny Bay (my favorite and you can't get them here.) Sit at the bar. Happy hour 3-5 weekday $1/oyster. A STEAL."

My friend Akshay says, "Some of the best sushi I've ever had. Get the omakase and the egg dessert."
This artificial lake is home to a variety of geese, ducks & other wildlife. 1 lap around the lake is just 2.8 miles, & you can rent in-line skates or beach cruisers at nearby Gregg's Greenlake Cycle.
Go to Paseo, order the #2 Cuban Pork sandwich and then take it to Shilshole Marina and enjoy as you watch the boats!
The coup represented by Bellevue scoring the only Northwest outpost of the revered Taiwanese chain Din Tai Fung cannot be overstated: Quite simply the finest xiao long bao in the universe. Leia mais.
My friend Andrew says, "This isn't unmissable, but the front and back patios are rock solid, and the very light nautical theme had me swooning."
My friend Andrew says, "Ginger beer on tap with whiskey ('Montana Mule') and eat your Kedai Makan from next door here. They also make this thing with fernet and cold brew."
