		<description><![CDATA[You know you are going to love a restaurant when you are greeted with a complimentary glass of champagne as soon as you walk in the door. That too after you’ve announced that you are just going to wait for 45 minutes till a table at the restaurant next door frees up. Then when you are not pressured by the hovering staff to order something as you wait for the rest of your party to arrive, you really start loving the place. When you feel guilty about the free champagne ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A gastropub is a pub that also serves gourmet fare, a few notches above your regular pub grub. Recently two new gastropubs opened in the Seattle area, I hope it is the start of a new fad. Great drinks and gourmet food served in a cool hip space is just my kind of fun!
Spur is in Belltown at the same location where Mistral used to be. They have completely revamped the space. The decor is very urban, it&#8217;s got that cool New York city bar vibe. Cocktails at Spur are ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You all must be tired of reading about my birthday by now. It really wasn&#8217;t a never ending birthday as some of you thought.  Since my birthday is my favorite day of the year, I have been talking about it for a while, so I can see why you would think that. But the celebrations lasted for barely two days, a dinner with friends the night before, and dinner with Siv the birthday night. So I promise, this is the last time you will hear me mention my birthday till ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the after-effects of maintaining a restaurant review blog is that your friends start treating you like an expert in the area, and sometimes call on you to get restaurant recommendations. This is an easy task when you are not part of the guest list, send them to one of your favorite restaurants. But when you are also a member of the dinner party, there is a huge dilemma. Should you recommend a tried and tested restaurant that you know is good, or should you go with one from your wishlist so that you ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I don&#8217;t believe in second chances; especially when it comes to restaurants. Once I&#8217;ve had a bad experience at a restaurant, it is very rare that I&#8217;d go back to that place again. With so many choices around, why should I? But there are exceptions to any rule, we finally had a great night at Zoe on our third try, glad I broke the rule on this one.
My first visit to Zoe was with a group of friends on a girls&#8217; night out two years ago. About 10 of us showed ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[There are so many things I love about living in Belltown. Being so close to Macrina Bakery is way up there in this list. This European style bakery and cafe is the place where Seattlites bring their out-of-town visitors to.They have the best breads in town, and the pastries are to die for! Macrina supplies bread to a bunch of restaurants in town, but there is nothing better than buying freshly made bread and pastries directly from source! 
Macrina is not just a friendly neighborhood bakery, they have one of the best breakfast/brunch menus ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am so jealous of people staying at the Madison Valley, they have too many nice restaurants in the neighborhood! I still haven&#8217;t made my mind up as to which one I like better, Harvest Vine or Crush, we have been to both places many times, in fact we normally think of going to Harvest Vine, but if the place is too crowded, end up at Crush. That would make you think that Harvest Vine is our first choice, but the only reason it ends up that way is because ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been contemplating for a couple of days whether to post a review about our Easter Sunday brunch at Etta&#8217;s Seafood or not. I&#8217;ve been writing reviews only if the food or the experience is really good or really bad. Etta&#8217;s is somewhere in the middle, not much to complain about, but nothing to write home about either! I know it is a Seattle favorite, but I&#8217;ve been thinking lately that it might just be the hype -Tom Douglas owns the place, so it must be good, right? 
Well, don&#8217;t get me wrong, food ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[FareStart is one of those restaurants where you can eat without feeling guilty that the money you spend on food can feed a small district in Africa. Why? Because every penny you spend here helps someone start a new life.  They are a non-profit organization that teaches homeless and other disadvantaged the necessary job and life skills to find a job in the food service industry.
The FareStart adult program is an intensive training program combining over 16-weeks of hands-on food-service training with classroom instruction, individual case management and job placement ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Twist bar and lounge is in the heart of Belltown, in the same building as our condo. It is one of the most happening places in Belltown, packed with young dressed up eye candy on weekend nights. The decor is hip and contemporary, there is a sports bar in the front of the restaurant as soon as you enter in, but the main attraction is the lounge in the back. The lounge is painted a vibrant red, and the seating is mainly comfy couches and contemporary chairs. The disco ball ...]]></description>
