This fish market & casual restaurant, owned by Seattle natives, offers some of the best seafood in Seattle. Their Poke is the best I've had, and brings us back every week. Try the salmon or tuna poke (marinated raw fish), and get a lobster pasta salad or one of the super-tasty purple mini-cheesecakes (made with traditional Philippino purple yams ("Ube") - so so good. They close at 6pm, so they make a great lunch (or early-pickup dinner) option.

Raconteur is a cute little spot tucked within a bookstore, with lots of wood beams and light. If you're looking for a place where you can walk in and sit down immediately for brunch, this is a good bet - and still tasty. When you're done eating, you can peruse the books or head to the nearby Seward Park for a walk with a beautiful view of Mt. Rainier.

One of our favorite dinners in Seattle, this Malaysian place is quirky, cozy, and absolutely delicious. Located in Capitol Hill, you can put your name on the waiting list and go to one of the neighboring bars to enjoy a drink while you wait. The pineapple & toasted shrimp salad (Kerabu), roti, and Malaysian fried rice (nasi goreng) are some of our favorites, but you can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Named Best Restaurant in Seattle for a reason, this highend Vietnamese restaurant in central Capitol Hill is one of the tastiest in town. They have a relaxed, tropical vibe and great mixed drinks, and everything we've ever eaten has been a hit. They're a nicer restaurant, fit for a date night or celebration.

Molly Moon's is one of the classic ice-cream shops of Seattle, and Hello Robin takes their ice cream and makes it into delicious, made-to-order ice cream sandwiches. I enjoy the Mackle'smores with classic vanilla, or one of the seasonal flavors.
