seattle is incredible. i’d highly recommend going to 35th Street Bistro in Fremont. I’ve never had a better lamb stew and I’m extremely satisfied after every visit.

If you like Seattle, you should think about checking out Vancouver sometime. Incredible city with incredible food with a heavy Japanese influence. Insanely good sushi (surprisingly, many sushi joints in Vancouver are “all you can eat” style and quickly dismantle any fears one (American) would have in eating that type of cuisine in that type of venue. I also highly recommend Tojo’s (http://www.tojos.com/) as it was the finest sushi experience of my life (chef Tojo is supposedly credited with inventing the California roll and this is one of the few restaurants that made it into the book “1,000 Places to See Before You Die.” The best part of this place is that you have the option of exclaiming, “Tojo-san, FEED ME!” and the masterful chef will prepare whatever inspires him at the moment.

PS – Outstanding blog

There are plenty of other (and cheaper!) places to eat in Seattle. Next time you visit, send me an email (mrsean1999@yahoo.com) and I will give a food tour for any fellow Ohioans.

Absolutely! The cost of living in Seattle is ridiculously high – much more than here.

Ah Michelle just remember you can enjoy Seattle BECAUSE you live in Cleveland where the livin’ is cheap and easy.

Glad it's helpful to you. I hope you have the opportunity go. Seattle is now easily one of my favorite cities.

Here's an e-mail from Nancy at the Seattle Times that offers some more thoughts:

Hey! You're welcome. And what fun reading your "reviews" of my city -- and its restaurants. I especially loved the take on Scott Carsberg at Lampreia. Yes: he was looking at you. He's that way. And you nailed the place. I'm crazy-mad about his food and think he's the best chef in the city. The restaurant is far from cozy, but I put that aside when I eat there, knowing the food's going to knock my socks off.

There's no place else I'd rather live, cook or eat: Seattle's it for me. Come back soon. And thanks for sharing.

Cheers,
Your fan, Nan

Helpful – I’m keeping this for future reference. I’m wondering REALLY whence came the name “Crush”? http://www.chefjasonwilson.com/people.html
