‘You do it casually, and you’re going to get savaged’: KIRO hosts weigh Ballard’s new local challenger to DoorDash

A new food delivery service started by Ballard restaurant owners aims to cut out the big apps. KIRO fill-in host Mike Lewis, who owns a Seattle restaurant, warned that delivery only works for restaurants that plan for it carefully. “You do it casually, and you’re going to get savaged,” Mike...

Top Pot’s First Washington Doughnut Shop Feels Like A Library That Smells Like Apple Fritters

A former neighbor once called this little doughnut cafe his living room for 11 years. That’s a big compliment for a shop that opens at 7 AM and sells fried dough by the dozen. The shelves hold apple fritters, old fashioneds, and Boston cream. Books line the room, and...

L’Oursin celebrates 10 years of ‘de-fancifying’ French dining

Since its 2016 opening, L'Oursin has won over the hearts of local chefs, critics at The Seattle Times, and garnered national acclaim from Eater and The New York Times as a must-try place to eat in the city. But it takes so much more than good food for a restaurant to last a decade.

This Washington Family Butcher Has Been Hand-Cutting Steaks And Smoking Bacon Since 1972, And Locals Skip The Supermarket For It

Raspberry jalapeño bacon burgers. Korean BBQ pepperoni sticks. Alligator meat. All of it comes from one family butcher counter in a quiet corner of Washington farm country. The shop has been cutting meat since 1972. It still wraps custom orders in plastic and butcher paper, the same way it always has.

Where to Eat on Phinney Ridge

This used to be a low-key neighborhood for dining. Then—boom. People used to toss around words like “reliable” or “low-key” to describe the concentration of restaurants on Phinney Ridge. The real action was north in Greenwood, or down the hill in Ballard. Over the years, though, a few new spots trickled in to live double lives as neighborhood hangouts that also draw diners from across Seattle.

Nobody Wants a McDonald’s in Chinatown

McDonald’s wants to put a new store in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District (CID). Almost nobody thinks that’s a good idea. They are decidedly not loving it. Last night, about 80 CID residents and supporters packed the meeting of the International Special Review District (ISRD), the neighborhood’s historic preservation board. Impassioned public comments, handmade protest signs in Chinese and English, and several people in Ronald McDonald-esque clown masks injected the typically sleepy meeting with life.

BIZNOTE: Another closure this weekend – West Seattle Junction restaurant Taste & Best, after 3 1/2 months

Yet another local business closure looming this weekend – along with West Seattle Coin Laundry and The Wash Dog, add to the list Taste & Best, the Indian restaurant at 4752 California SW that never even put up a permanent sign (the photo above is from tonight). After a reader tip, we stopped in on the way to tonight’s West Seattle Art Walk and a staff member told us they’re closing Sunday (November 15), also mentioning that the restaurant is for sale (this blind listing appears to match). The restaurant opened in late July, less than a month after Great American Diner and Bar closed in that space. (Great American’s owner said at the time he was looking for another West Seattle location; when we checked back with him recently, he said he was “still looking.”) Before Great American, the corner space had been through a parade of establishments, including another with a short stay (Shelby’s, less than six months). Taste & Best’s owners opened a location in Shoreline almost simultaneous with West Seattle; no word yet on its fate.

Coming out at Comet Tavern

Editor's note: “Dance Yourself Clean” is a biweekly column dedicated to reviewing local nightlife establishments through the eyes and sensibilities of an introvert. This is the final bar from my summer backlog, which can only mean one thing, soon I will have to actually try a new bar again instead of hiding away in my apartment. Fortunately, I have one more week of cowardice before I must face the real world again.

Puerto Rican Mofongo And Pernil Come In Portions Big Enough To Share At These 4 Washington Kitchens

Mofongo starts with green plantains that get fried, then mashed with garlic and crispy pork cracklings. That’s it. That’s the whole magic trick, and somehow it turns into one of the most filling dishes on any plate. Then there’s pernil. It’s pork shoulder soaked in garlic, oregano, and...
