House Special: Soondae Gukbap at Busan Jeong
Every component of the signature pork soup is made in-house to create a lasting impression.
Seattle is not short of quality Korean restaurants, but many offer similar menus built around the best-known, most popular dishes.

Park currently operates…
Restaurant Roundup: Cold Noodles and Underground Italian
Here’s what was served up recently in the Emerald City.
Noodles might not be at the top of everybody’s list when it comes to treats to cool off this summer—but they should be. Slurping down cold udon, naengmyeon, or bún is as refreshing as it is tasty. There are plenty of Japanese, Korean, and Vietnamese restaurants putting their best chilled dishes forward for the season,…
A New Sake Jazz Bar Brings a Slice of Japan to Hillman City
At Sake Noire, thoughtful pours meet Japanese-Italian plates in a cozy spot inspired by classic jazz kissas.

Restaurant Roundup: Covert Cocktails and Lavender Last Call

While the gray skies and cooler temps may be back for a few days, this week’s heat was just a taste of the summer sizzle to come. One of our favorite ways to chill out is with an icy drink or dessert, and there are plenty of options to do so, from Mia & More’s…
Eat the World in Seattle Southside
World Cup visitors don’t have to go far from the airport to find one of the region’s most global dining corridors.
With World Cup 26 underway, Seattle is full of visitors looking for the obvious things: the stadium, a jersey or scarf, a good pint (or three), and a great place to eat.

One of these days we will write about the glory of Seattle’s James Beard Award winners… but alas, today is not that day.
