Lunch to thank my son's grandmother
Please help. Tomorrow, I am taking my son's grandmother to lunch. Short notice. I know. Lunch is to thank her for everything she was done for my son. He is leaving for college very soon. Looking for something in Seattle, with beautiful food and very friendly service. My son's grandmother has a sophisticated palette and is well traveled. However, we need to avoid spicy food. Price does not matter. Thanks for your help.
Breakfast on Bainbridge Island
Try Cafe Nola on Winslow. Just turn right at the first light as you exit the ferry. The restaurant is on the left at the first intersection.

Our family has been hosting a student from Sumatra. Before he returns to Indonesia in two weeks, he would like us to dine out on food from Indonesia. Did a search, found a posting from 2002. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hello. We have an Indonesian exchange student living with our family. His eighteenth birthday is next week. He would like to eat either Japanese food or pasta.

What are your suggestions? Thanks for your help.

If we should make reservations, or arrive before"X" to be seated promptly, please indicate. Thank you again for your help.

Hello. I have been looking for pie like my grandmother made. What does this mean? Great pie crust...flaky, light and flavorful and filling that tastes like fruit, not sugar. Is there a place in Seattle where I can find such pies? Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the variety of choices. I should have been more clear in our expectations. As we own a coffee roasting company, we are looking for coffee done well by an indie roaster.
