Great HOT DOGS up and down the state!
If in Bay Area, Let's Be Frank - they have carts in the city and the grass-fed beef hotdogs are served on local Acme buns - and they are available for sale in stores like Andronico's and Berkeley Bowl. Yummy and sustainable, yay!
snohomish for xmas
Thanks to all - yeah, the weather is going to put a damper on the excursions, and as I mentioned, I'm plenty familiar with eating well in Seattle proper - living there for well over a decade, I have plenty of favorites and places to try. The idea was hopefully to see if there was something a else. Anthony's, etc are obviously out, as is the Maltby Cafe which is a regular haunt for my mother and not a favorite of mine in the past. Curious about the spot in Arlington and possibly Luca's. Mom and I are open to all cuisines (ok, she won't eat sushi, but that's fine) styles, so we'll see what we can get to without risking being stuck in a ditch on the way home! Thanks again for all the suggestions, definitely know more now than I did before about what's current in SnoCo.

Thanks MillCreek & hickdolphin, you're kind of confirming my guess, but I thought hounds would be the best bet to find something new that might be worth a try...I know in the past I've found a couple neat spots in Everett to eat, so that will probably be what happens, snow permitting!
snohomish for xmas
Hi - I'm visiting relatives in Snohomish next week, and while I grew up/lived in Seattle for years I moved away in '04; I know plenty of places downtown to eat, but would love to take my mom to a nice spot somewhere near Snohomish, if that's possible. We're open to anything, casual is fine, and if it's a local/seasonal menu, that'd be a treat for me (I live in the Bay Area now). Any gems that have popped up in the last 4 years?
thanks!
Fresno's Top 100--Let's make a list!
The "citrus lady" - Rebecca from Torey farms,;not only are the Page mandarins amazing but do not miss the Oro Blanco grapefruit that are up in just a couple weeks - absolutely the best ever!
Il Giardino's spicy mix - mentioned in a later post, also another great staple; just some of the wonderful vendors at the Vinyard Farmer's market.
Belana Vs. Pangea - Fresno
Just a note about Pangea's cheesecake - it's not a traditional NY cheesecake, it's made with creme fraiche and is purposely lighter in texture. Perhaps a server didn't make that clear when you ordered it, which is unfortunate, as it is individual, made to showcase local seasonal fruit and not in any way meant to compete with a "normal" cheesecake. Also the graham crackers are literally made in -house and then made into the crust.
