"My tongue is smiling." ~ Abigail Trillin


Some local places that make my tongue smile to share will my fellow tac-towners and Seattleittes:

1. Sweet Iron
Located right across from the Seattle Symphony in Downtown Seattle, Sweet Iron Liege waffles are an explosion in my mouth! Hitting all my tounge g-spots, these are not your traditional Denny's waffle. These waffles made fresh to order are caramelized with a torch, and come with the most amazing toppings. My FAV?! Brie, Basil, and bacon. Delish!



2. Aladdin Gyro-Cery

I love Gyros, and have tried tons of Gyro places in the Tacoma/Seattle area. HANDS DOWN, Aladdin's (located on the Ave in the U district) is the best. Not to mention they are open til 2am (3 on

Saturdays!)


3. MSM DELIeli

No one would argue-MSM is a complete dive. Reminds me of a mini mart. However, their subs speak for themselves. Packed DAILY for lunch, this place gives eating a sandwich a holy experience. HUGE 13' subs served with a fresh crunchy pickle, choose from Mikes Deluxe, French Dip, Philly Cheesteak..Hell, you can

have whatever you want on it. They have it all!


4. Pesos, Queen Anne, Seattle

Hot, exciting bar by night (where I once hang out with Dave from Lady Antebellum), and a incredible happy hour, it is still only the breakfast that has won my heart! Have a mexi-morning affair with their mouth watering eggs benny!


5. The HOBNOB

Best Farmer's Scramble in TOWN!
