Gabriel's Fire: BBQ in Seattle

0

Fans of Gabriel’s Fire, a BBQ joint formerly based in Ballard, should feel some relief. You can still get your brisket sandwich fix by visiting the restaurant’s new location in Mountlake Terrace. Although, their new venue is a bit ramshackle and to some critics, on the verge of collapse, it all ads to the experience of eating delicious messy and smoky BBQ.

Urbanspoon and Yelp, good for business or just too cruel?

I am sort of amazed how much power the social media restaurant review websites Urbanspoon and Yelp have with foodies. A low percentile of “Likes It” or stars on these websites can force a restaurant out of business, and these unpaid reviewers are harsh. I’ve seen restaurants that I enjoy skewered for anything from undercooked chicken to inattentive waiters to television noise in the back kitchen—and that isn’t saying anything about the terrible reviews of mediocre restaurants. With the nasty power of Internet anonymity and unaccountability, how seriously do you take reviews from websites like these? Read more about Social media restaurant review websites

A Plea to Sweet Tomatoes Restaurant: Please Expand your Locations!

1

Sweet Tomatoes is a restaurant that many people throughout the country have not had the delight of enjoying. This restaurant offers a large, healthy salad bar, a soup bar and delicious, healthy dessert options. For one low price, you can enjoy all you can eat healthy food that will not leave you bloated and uncomfortable after eating. With all of the unhealthy restaurants in this country, we need more Sweet Tomatoes restaurants, or some quality dupes. Americans are getting fatter and fatter, and low-cost restaurant food choices may be helping to drive us there.

The death of the Italian steakhouse

0

The end of a big-bellied, steak-moneyed era.

I drove by Omaha's legendary Mister C’s the other day. The red brick gate of the complex has crumbled, the pavement of the parking lot is cracked with creeping vines, a crude, hand-painted sign is has been put up, threatening squatters with police persecution for breaking into the building. The mock-grandeur of the restaurant’s Venetian facade has fallen to nothingness to be sure, and for some Omahans, the death of Italian steakhouses like this one signals the end of an era.

Seattle Soups

Nothing is more comforting during those drizzly grey winter days than a warm bowl of soup. However, I’ve always had sort of a hard time locating a decent soup spot. Thankfully this year, food writer Nancy Leson has done the dirty work for me and compiled a thorough list of the finest places in and around Seattle to slurp soup.

A “Thank You” to Denny's

0

Your food may not be the best, but you are open 24/7/365

Denny's is a restaurant that probably holds a place in the hearts of many Americans. Okay, maybe not, but it holds a place in mine. Denny's is always there for me no matter what time of day or night it is, and no matter what day of the year it is. I had not eaten there in quite a while until Christmas Eve night arrived. Yes, I had my share of Christmas Eve gathering food -- cookies and a few little tidbits of holiday goodness, but had not had a real meal the entire day. My boyfriend and I decided to go out for a late dinner, since we rarely have more than a couple of snacks in our apartment at any given time. Grocery stores were closed; even the 24/7 Wal-Mart around the corner from us closed early on Christmas Eve. Dine-in and fast food restaurants alike were all closed in our area. What were we going to do for dinner?
