Entrance of Yipi Bubble Tea
Rob and Elise Loomis own Yipi Bubble Tea on Front Street in Poulsbo. Yipi is housed in a little cottage-like shop overlooking Liberty Bay. There’s a whole list of reasons to take the trip on the ferry to visit Yipi – the fun, bright interior, wonderful view, drinks, and amazing crepes are just a few for starters. Read more…
Bangers and Mash
In downtown Seattle, on the corner of 1st and Columbia, sits Fadó. As we walked up to it for the first time the other day, our interest was immediately peaked. We were enjoying a morning off in the city, and were staring to work up a serious appetite. Looking over the menu posted outside, we decided it would be worth waiting until their open an hour later at 11:15, and come back. Despite our growling bellies, it was definitely worth saving our appetites.
Bento Box at Tokyo Teriyaki
Tokyo Teriyaki is a favorite of ours. We’re not even huge fans of teriyaki necessarily. But the food is so good – and the customer service even better – that we find ourselves craving Tokyo Teriyaki frequently. Read more…
Best Cookies Ever
The other morning, Josh and I were looking for guaranteed satisfaction in the department of coffee and pastries. We had spent the morning sampling several coffee shops in Seattle, and had saved what we thought to be the best for last. We’ve gone to Specialty’s several times before, and had always had a wonderful experience there. Background story: I am not a mocha drinker. Typically, I like my coffee strong and rich and not sweet at all. My first time at Specialty’s, Josh ordered a mocha and had me taste it… I sheepishly realized about ten minutes later that I had polished it off. It was that good. We’ve had Saturday mornings when we will drive the 30 miles or so to get a mocha and amazing pastries from Specialty’s. Josh works nearby, and will frequent them during the day, occasionally bringing treats home for me. For Christmas, we had cookies shipped to family in Washington DC. You get the picture. We love them. Read more…
Chai and Green Tea Bread
The other day Josh and I were in Pioneer Square, and decided to try All City Coffee. It was quiet when we went in, possibly a slow time of the morning. The barista got our order for us and we took a seat at the bar by the window. Read more…
