Timely Hitting Posted August 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Go to one of the Michelin-starred restaurants. I'm looking at the menu for Altura... looks fuckin' delicious!Looked at Altura and only concern is I'd have to go Saturday night; they're closed Sunday and Monday and I leave Tuesday night.

Timely Hitting Posted August 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Going to Altura Kinger; Saturday Night. 9pm so that means we'll be there until fucking 12. Metropolitan Grill on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Hoffa Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Ever been to Metropolitan Grill? Might take you up on the recommendation of just grabbing a drink at the Space Needle and then going elsewhere. That's really close by, and by all accounts a better restaurant. Haven't been there but it is well regarded. Pike's Place Market is a tourist trap, go up to the Ballard Locks and see the salmon in the fish ladder. Much more interesting and absolutely free.

Sol Aristatel Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Pike's Place Market is a tourist trap I'd imagine similar to Fisherman's Wharf in SF. Agree that it's tourist trap. But one of those deals you should go just to see it. One and done. And they don't trap you there if you don't spend any money.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy Hoffa Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 The homeless are well represented downtown. Stay out of Pioneer Square at night. Anthony's on Pier 66 has very good fresh halibut and salmon. Second and Main 24/7 for drugs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow's Newspaper Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 was just there a few months ago. Agree with Hoffa, dont eat at the needle. Go there, but eat at a place off the water. If you go to the fish market, 5 minutes away is Elliott's. Some of the best seafood I've had. My wife had the Red King Crab. It was 2 lbs of crab and she got 2 claws they were so big. Had to cut it like a steak. I did the Dung Crab and it was excellent. They have 30 or more types of oysters if you like them. We tried a few different ones that our waiter recommended. I never knew oysters could taste so differently. Some were sweet, etc. Duck tour sounds lame, but was very interesting. They talk about the history, Google, Amazon, Starbucks etc. Did you know there are over 80 starbucks within a 2 mile radius of the fish markets. That just seems crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shdw01 Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Been there a few times but it's been a while. I haven't done much but I recommend the fish market (pikes). What I did was find a tour. There are lots of tours and my fatass found a couple food tours. They show you around the fish market and you can sample foods at some of the different vendors. Educational and fattening. Safeco for a Mariners game is fun too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balco Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Skip the Space Needle and eat at Canlis. Skip Bremerton all together.Yep Space Needle is overrated and Bremerton is a shit hole with a Naval base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Balco Posted August 19, 2017 Report Share Posted August 19, 2017 Check out Kerry Park. It's a small neighborhood park with panoramic views of downtown. Discovery Park has over 500 acres of wilderness. Metropolitan Grill is a great steak house that is frequent by local professional ball players.

Many local businessmen go there for a movitvational moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
