  1. No way! Please feel free to keep the suggestions coming. All of these great places will give me an excuse to visit Seattle more often.
  2. Wow! I just wanted to thank everyone for all of the great suggestions. I see this is going to be a tougher decision than I originally thought. I'll be sure to keep you all posted as to where we end up going. Thanks again, Scout
  3. Greetings! I'm a Vancouverite that's going to ignore the nasty exchange rate and head down to Seattle for a weekend this month to have a bit of fun (eat... shop...eat some more). Would love to get a few restaurant recommendations from fellow egullet members. We're looking for a place that's not too expensive (entrees between $15-25 US), could be of any type of ethnicity but has to have a funky/fun atmosphere (I've seen pics of you PNW folks and you always look like you're having lots of fun!) We're staying at the Hotel Monaco downtown, but don't mind driving if we have to. What is the restaurant at the Hotel Monaco like? Last time we went to Seattle we tried going to the Flying Fish but by the time we found a parking spot, the place was jam-packed and we couldn't get in. Is the Flying Fish worth trying out?
  4. cabrales-Thanks for your input-the menu at Bacchus appealed to me too. I think Blue Water and Piccolo Mondo might also be a good bet, depending on the menu (they haven't posted it yet). Part of me wants to go to Ouest and Lumiere, but part of me would much rather splurge and go another time when I can enjoy one of the larger tasting menus instead of just 3 courses. Who knows ... maybe I'll be a little extravagant this year and do both!
  5. Thought I'd send along an updated version of this website as most of the participating restaurants have now listed menus for this event. Dine Out Vancouver
  6. Here's something to look forward to if you're planning a trip to Vancouver in Jan/Feb. I'm sure more details will emerge as we get closer to the date ... Dine Out Vancouver
  7. I like to dip my popcorn into a big tub of cream cheese, one kernel at a time.
  8. All of the talk about banh mi in the Pacific Northwest forum has made me a little jealous. I'd love to find out where the good banh mi places are in Vancouver (surely there must be a few). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Scout
  9. Can't believe I'm the first one to say wasabi. Am I the only one?
