A little about Foodie Fun and More

I am a self-professed foodie at heart, love to eat out whenever I have the opportunity! I have recently relocated to Northern Minnesota from the Seattle area and will be reviewing restaurants and recipes I get the opportunity to try on my adventures in the Midwest and beyond.

I have no culinary training and most will say that I am a very picky eater. I'm not a fan of vegetables, love my sushi, adore a wonderful filet mignon and snow crab is to die for - although that may be hard to come by here in the North Woods. As my adventure continues, you'll see my palate ranges from comfort foods to gourmet and I will let you know how the service was, how the food was and if the prices were spendy or reasonable. I am a foodie who has no qualms about paying more for a good meal ... for a good meal that is... not a mediocre one. I am happy to share information on your restaurant here if you desire me to or if you want me to try your restaurant and I have not yet.

I prefer smaller restaurants that are 'undiscovered' and if they resemble something I would have seen in Seattle, all the better. But for me, it's the service that makes the meal sometimes... or breaks it.

So follow me on my adventures in dining in Northern Minnesota and beyond.

Planning my next lunch time stop

This journey/adventure of writing of the restaurants I dine in throughout Kitsap and other places I visit has me wanting to be more adventurous and selective in my selections now.  Do I try places I've gone to so very many times and know the menus well or try new hidden treasures?  Finding those hidden gems is half the battle of course.  I look forward to the spring here in the PNW when we can dine 'al fresco' once again - there's nothing like basking in the glow of the warm sunshine as you eat your lunch.  I'm not a 'sit in the shade' type of gal - never was for some reason.

I am thinking though...  I'm feeling a tug towards Silver City Brewery on Saturday for lunch.  I've never been disappointed but were someone to give me a suggestion otherwise, I'll try something else.  I usually venture there for dinner and not for lunch, so this will be something different for me.

Looking forward to lunch on Saturday now more than ever!

If only I had some friends who loved sushi as much as my Seattle friends did as I do miss it so!

Signing off....

  1. I saw mention of your blog through Twitter, and had to stop by to say welcome to the area. If you're looking for sushi, you really should try Hakata in Silverdale. If you sit at the counter, Sugi always treats you right (at least I'm always treated well when I'm there with my grandma.) Other lunch suggestions: There's a great Pho place in Poulsbo near the Albertsons (Pho T & N). If you'd like a little more European, there's also a great little French-ish place in Silverdale called Breezy Hill Bistro, though I've not been there in awhile. Old Town Bistro can be pretty tasty, but sometimes priced a little higher than I'd like.

    I look foward to reading what you try. Cheers!
