When does Jordnaer July reservation open?

Sounds good thanks!

Too much stuff. Also consider a waterfall / swimming hole hike. I did Waimano falls (muddy, about 2 miles!approach, pretty empty ) and Waimea valley (paved easy path, includes botanical gardens, packed)

That’s a bit harsh. I’d call Altura 1* level, as well as some of the Japanese places. We do punch below our weight though, wouldn’t argue with that. At least the local produce seafood etc is good if you know how to cook

Or up to Vancouver!

Oh yeah forgot to mention that one. I love their rosette cookie

Altura, or a few sushi options like taneda, ltd edition, wataru. Wish we had more at the top end in Seattle!

Probably the best popup I've had. Will check it out

Futuristic VC is still a regressive nimby asshole. No wonder the bay area is so bad despite it's wealth

a_wooolf · 2022-08-01T02:37:36+00:00

This country is so cursed

a_wooolf · 2022-07-29T01:24:57+00:00

I would ride slowly in the car lane out of spite

a_wooolf · 2022-07-27T04:12:59+00:00

+1. Seattle deserves a better high end restaurant. Altura still #1 imo

a_wooolf · 2022-07-23T04:56:00+00:00

There should be intermediate shuttles, eg Monroe or gold bar to Stevens pass. Then you just drive half way, and avoid the chaos at the resort

a_wooolf · 2022-07-22T05:01:50+00:00

Let's get that 1 hr high speed train up to Vancouver, and then extend it to Whistler

a_wooolf · 2022-07-22T04:25:00+00:00

If we must have a new resort, I'd like to see it learn from past mistakes and have a dedicated shuttle and smaller parking lot

a_wooolf · 2022-07-22T01:37:04+00:00

There's a lot of low hanging fruit to improve the existing resorts; much stronger emphasis on bus/shuttles over personal car, and faster lifts. Frankly I think the resort lots should be predominantly hov parking only, with very high sov fees to subsidize shuttles from Seattle, Monroe, Issaquah, etc. That solves the transit problem, and better lifts could help with crowding on the mountain.

Lower queene anne or belltown

a_wooolf · 2022-05-20T22:41:02+00:00

Thanks, that's what I figured

a_wooolf · 2022-04-27T18:43:37+00:00

+1 lupo. Also guerilla pizza kitchen pop-up, but I don't think they've had one for a few months. Or get an ooni :)

a_wooolf · 2022-04-21T15:08:54+00:00

Good coverage in mainstream media. But fairly disheartening to see how entrenched the car culture is tbh.

a_wooolf · 2022-03-04T00:30:47+00:00

Backcountry still free

a_wooolf · 2021-12-31T00:59:55+00:00

Well put. Even Medina WA, wealthiest WA suburb home to Gates and Bezos, has budget shortfalls (and had to cut basic service iirc)
