Bamboo Sushi

If you are looking for a new sushi spot, check out Bamboo Sushi in UVillage! Yes, it is a little out of the way but make a day of it – the area has tons of shops and restaurants and plenty of parking, which is hard to find in other parts of Seattle. Bamboo hasContinue reading “Bamboo Sushi”

The Sushi Samurai

The Sushi Samurai is a little shop tucked in the quieter streets of Queen Anne. There is only enough seating for a handful of people at a time indoors. They do currently have an outdoor area in front that offers some additional seating. Anyways, I stumbled on this place after leaving a holiday party andContinue reading “The Sushi Samurai”

Linguine and Turkey Meatballs

Pasta and meatballs is a true classic and the ultimate comfort food. I love a large pot of pasta with warm sauce and homemade meatballs, especially in the colder months when I crave heartier foods. In this recipe, I have swapped our ground beef for ground turkey to make the meal a bit lighter andContinue reading “Linguine and Turkey Meatballs”

Pho Bac

Pho Bac has been called the best pho in Seattle, so I checked it out to see if the hype is real. They have 2 locations – but their Seattle location on Jackson is currently the only one open for dine-in, so I bundled up in the cold and headed there for a warm bowlContinue reading “Pho Bac”

Turkey Sliders

Burgers are great, but sliders are definitely superior! They are way more fun to eat because who doesn’t love eating miniature versions of their favorite foods?! If a menu has an option for sliders vs a burger, you better believe I am getting the sliders 100% of the time. These sliders are made with turkeyContinue reading “Turkey Sliders”

The Baked Bear

The Baked Bear is a custom ice cream sandwich shop with locations across the country! I mean who doesn’t love two warm cookies with creamy ice cream stuffed in between? Those premade, frozen ice cream sammies you can find in stores have nothing on The Baked Bear. How it works is you go in andContinue reading “The Baked Bear”

This is the first coffee shop of its kind and they are here to play with the big coffee scene Seattle isContinue reading “Papa Chango”

Bulgogi Banh Mi

I love a good banh mi – they are fresh and filling! They also come with so many options for filling and I love the contrast of the warm, tender meat with the cold, crunchy, pickled vegetables on top. I could probably eat banh mi everyday for the rest of my life and be fullyContinue reading “Bulgogi Banh Mi”

Prelude

OKC’s coffee scene has really stepped its game up over the last few years. There are so many new shops and roasters that were not around when I was growing up there. It is so fun coming back and visiting and seeing all the new places that have popped up. OKC is really growing andContinue reading “Prelude”
