The annual Bite of Seattle is going on Friday-Sunday featuring live comedy and music, a demonstration stage featuring local celebrity chefs and (of course) tons of food!  As always, the Bite has free admission, although you do have to pay for food once you’re inside.  This year, the Bite is introducing “Just a Bite” where each restaurant will feature one small menu item for $3.75, allowing attendees to sample more food for less money than in past years.  The Alley is always a popular feature where, for a $10 admission, you get a full meal’s worth of samples from various local restaurants such as Andaluca, PinkaBella, and Belltown Pub.

Summer Fun: Woodinville’s Moonlight Cinema Series

August 12, 2010 in Travel Seattle, Uncategorized by Dah-yeon | No comments

The Moonlight Cinema Series is a favorite summer time event in Seattle. The Moonlight Series is a great way to gather friends and family to enjoy a movie outdoors in the grassy amphitheater, otherwise known as, The Bowl, while enjoying some great tasting specialty brews. This is one Seattle summertime event that I have sadly not been able to experience, but I have made a note to meet up with some friends in the next few Thursdays before the last movie plays on August 26th.
