Restaurant Reviews RESTAURANT REVIEW: Southcenter’s Bai Tong Bai Tong at Southcenter in Tukwila is one of our favorite places for Thai food. We’ve been going for more than a decade and have never had a bad experience with the food. They have a very extensive menu, and are open for lunch and dinner. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious […]

Restaurant Reviews RESTAURANT REVIEW: Burien’s Thai-U-Up This year, in our quest for a variety of take out and delivery food, we have tried to mix it up between our old favorites and something new, and we recently discovered Thai–U–Up (I love the name!) in Burien. Their reviews aren’t great, but I noticed that most of the negative reviews are related to […]

Restaurant Reviews RESTAURANT REVIEW: The Lemongrass in Renton Having grown tired of some of the take-out we’ve been ordering since the March COVID-19 shutdown, Alan and I decided to try something new. We discovered The Lemongrass in Renton—a local Vietnamese chain serving traditional dishes and vegetarian options in a casual, stylish space and were impressed by their huge menu, although somewhat reluctant to try […]

Restaurant Reviews RESTAURANT REVIEW: Southcenter’s Miyabi Sushi I never expect much from strip mall restaurants, so I was pleasantly surprised the first time I tried Southcenter’s Miyabi Sushi many years ago. Miyabi has a nice cozy atmosphere with booths, tables, and the sushi bar. Bonus: the bar stools at the sushi bar have backs and are actually comfortable. We used to love […]

We usually make a meal […]

From Don RESTAURANT REVIEW: Columbia City Ale House We have been going to Columbia City Ale House almost every Friday since they opened more than 20 years ago. It’s our “Cheers,” where all the servers know our name, we know theirs, and our drinks show up shortly after we arrive without a word. We started the tradition because we like to eat out […]
