I want to share with you one
of the things that I really enjoy in Seattle, the food. There is a great
variety of food in Seattle in different restaurants and I have been in some of
them. Since the fancy through the most simple restaurant you could enjoy a great moment by yourself or with friends. In Mexico we have a lot os
restaurants, but every country is different and there are some places that are
similar but they are not the same. I`m showing you very few restaurants, but I choose them because I have been there, tried the food and really liked them. I have been in every one one time, except Saffron Grill where I have been
twice.
Indigo Kitchen and Ale House
It is located in Lynwood, WA. Its
an American Tex-mex Restaurant known for
its great happy hours and flavor food but more for their steak bites. It´s an attraction for
young professionals to get a good variety of food and a refreshing drink. The
decoration of the place is very American with big TV´s , a unique bar infront
of the entrance, some bar tables, tables and booths. The red color is a characteristic at the restaurant. Since the entrance you can see red color matching with blue. This kind of restaurant is knowledge in Mexico like American Restaurant for the colors that they use and the type of food. For me the flavor is better here than in Mexico.
Crazy Taco
This is a funny truck
located in Fremont. There aren't tables or chairs in the place, you
just have
to ask at the only men who is inside the truck for your tacos and eat them in the
place standing up or you can ask to take them home. There are some different types
of Mexican tacos like pollo, pastor, asada and carnitas the flavor is good and
I like that they put onion and cilantro that’s the typical manner of eat tacos. This kind of truck is not common in Mexico for selling tacos is more common for selling hamburgers, hot dogs and meals. For sell tacos is more frequent to find a small commerce or some kind of tacos are sold by a woman carrying a big basket.
A lot of people go to eat at
this truck at 2am, after party or night out at the bars of course.
El Camino
This is a Mexican Restaurant
located in Freemont, started in 1996. Since your entrance in the place they are
playing Mexican songs, the decoration is Mexican style; it's very colorful with candles on the wood's tables and China paper cut for decoration in the ceiling. There is a big bar in the
right side and a lot of tables. There is a terrace very
romantic for a date. They have a great variety of Mexican food as carne asada,
ceviche, mole, and other typical Mexican food. This restaurant has an excellent
Mexican dessert know as flan. I recommended to try it because is really
delicius. In Mexico, this type of restaurants is known for the decoration and not for the food.
Bizzarro, Italian Cafe
This is an Italian
restaurant located in Wallingford. They were featured on the tv show Diners,
Drive-Ins and Dives which highlights the best food across the US. The decoration is very unique. There are only
tables, with crystal where you can put like a napkin with your name. A lot people
love to take photos specially in the bathroom beacause there are some Bizzarras
things like a doll and some chairs one on other. The food is great and the
service excellent.The tablecloths are squares red and white like most of the Italian restaurants, every table have a vase with a red flower. I recommended a lot the lasagna.
Dick´s Drive-In
Dick´s Hamburger Restaurants
are located all over Seattle. The theme
of the restaraunt is from the 50´s Drive-Ins.
Their menú is very basic offering hamburgers, french fries and
milkshakes. Dick´s is very popular in Seattle with the late night drunk crowd.
The hamburgues are just for pick it up, there are no place to eat, just your
car or going somewhere else. In Mexico we don't have restaurants like these, for hamburgers exits only Mc Donald's, Burger King and Carl's Jr but the most important is that is not for pick hamburgers up, in Mexico you always have the option to be seated. maybe some coffee shop could be in this way but not food.
Saffron Grill
It is located in Northgate and
they serve Indian/Mediterranean Food. The flavors are very strong and
delicious. The decoration is like india,
there are a big bar, tables and booths. This is a great place to have dinner
with friends or a date. The staff is
very friendly and nice. the owner is always in the entrance taking care of the costumers and of his employees. I have eaten
here twice and always go home full and satisfied beacuse the plates are very
big.
