Over Spinich and Egg Fettuccini . Our first meal together, Sept 2006



Feierabend we love you

Feierabend is a German style pub in South Lake Union has big beers, often loud atmosphere (contrary to some loser postings on Yelp...they must be dead drunk or asleep!). See photos below for proof. It prides itself on having the largest selection of imported german biers on the west coast. Nuff said.





Ham hock at Feierabend; sweet and smokey.

Amazing Italian dining in Chicago

And the Chianti wasn't too bad either.

Panilonco Carmenere 2005 : Another Ballard Market winner.

Enjoyed it with a nice T bone steak from Uwajiya, the asian specialty supermarket in Seattle.

A surprisingly well-balanced, medium bodied wine from Chile with some fruit, a bit like a merlot. A good sipping wine which would also pair well with red meats.
