For the last few years, fast food joints have been disappearing all over Seattle. Mirroring other big cities throughout the country, Seattle has been ousting unhealthy and unsightly food chains in an effort to help residents make healthier food choices.
After stormy weather and a two-day power outage, my husband and I were craving some warm comfort food! We were welcomed to the Green Bean Deli, the former home of the Boston Chowda Company in Newburyport, on Liberty Street.
Jamjuree Thai Cuisine, on 15th Ave in Capital Hill, actually started as a restaurant by the same name in Bangkok. Some of the founding family members ended up here in Seattle, and brought their love of traditional Thai cuisine with them. This spot is a family favorite for us, and I thought I’d try something new on the menu.
Few things remain the same on the Ave in Seattle’s University District. Sitting next to one of the largest universities on the west coast, the Ave has seen its fair share of change over the last few decades. One thing that has remained constant, though, is the Continental.
My friend Gemma (of Pro Bono Baker) just emailed me to let me know about a Soup event in Chicago - the Soup and Bread project at the Hideout. Every week, various cooks chip in pots of soup and some bread on the side, and it's free!
A friend and I recently enjoyed a quiet evening at Vlora Restaurant on Boylston Street in Boston. Not paying attention, I almost walked past the stairway that leads to the entrance of this basement establishment, but was impressed when I got there. The large wooden doors at the bottom of the stairs provides a grand entrance, and the interior shines with luxurious elegance.
When you haven’t seen the sun in months, as is the case here in the Northwest, nothing warms the soul better than a hot bowl of soup. With that in mind, I made a recent trip to the Hopvine Pub on 15th Ave in Seattle’s Capitol Hill neighborhood.

Every so often we get requests for soup recipes from people all over the nation. The soup team researches the possibilities and attempts to come up with the most satisfying recipe to relay back to our soup-sribers. This week Dawn from Jacksonville, Florida writes, "I live in Jacksonville Florida and I am absolutely in love with The Loop's Mushroom & Brie Bisque. It has been real cold for us recently and I love to cook.
If you’ve read any of my blog reviews, you know I’m an avid biker. I bike right through the winter as long as there’s no ice or deep snow on the road – at least when I start my ride. And, I was out not too long ago, just as winter was stretching its frosty, blue fingers to take hold of the Northeast. It wasn’t quite freezing outside, but I was sure surfing the edge of comfort going out
My husband and I enjoy both day and weekend trips to Maine and are always on the hunt for great new spots to enjoy a bite to eat. We were thrilled to discover Johnny’s Bistro and Bar on route 1 in Falmouth this past weekend. We didn’t know what we were looking for, but Johnny’s was it – elegant food in a casual and friendly atmosphere.

The most exciting thing about Bucktown Soup Cafe is the innovative variety of soups on offer – alongside the standards like Chicken Noodle, Lobster Bisque and Chili; they offer things like Cheeseburger Chowder, or Mushroom and Brie.
This is the perfect time of year to head to the Black Cow in Newburyport , MA – the crowds are minimal, but the views of the river are still breath-taking! I enjoyed a quiet evening there with my husband recently; we started with some stellar soups.

If I didn't know better, I would have gone on and on about the Oval Room's delicate medallions of shrimp sausage with citrus-dressed micro-greens in a bath of mushroom jus, because (unless I'm trippin') what's billed simply as "Wild Mushroom Soup" is anything but.
Trying to describe this soup to a friend was like a scene out of Willy Wonka:
