Seattle Most Visited

Public Market, a must-go place for tourists and local people. People who go there not specifically looking for fresh veggie or meat, but extraordinary experience. Ermm, at least I'm not going there for grocery.


I never knew chilies can be sold in that way! How creative! (I looked like shit due to lack of sleep, the hotel wasn't comfy enough.)


"OMG, all kinds of chilies!" He said.


This is definitely more than what we expect in a farmer market, isn't it?

Also, they have some stalls selling other local stuffs like handmade jewelries, flowers, arts, photographs, fabrics and so on.


I was checking on some handmade jewelries.


Sorry, pretty. I have to mosaic your face. Since you were yelling at us not to take any photos of yours, this is the only way I can blog about this.


Don't ask me, I don't know what is this either. Fabric art maybe.


Ohh, this one I know. Flowers :p

Now is the climax. You can skip all the reading before but you can't afford to miss this for sure!!!


Ermm, this picture is plainly random. But we are very close.


Pike Place Chowder, a favorite local place for chowders.


Grab your menu here. It's self-service.


Time to order.


Serving our chowders with sour doughs.

Taa... Daa...




My creamy New England Clam Chowder, US$ 7++


His Seafood Chowder, US$ 7++.


Yummy!!! (sorry again, I really looked like shit that day!)

Seattle and Coffee; Coffee and I; a three years undecidable relationship.

Seattle Lola Greek Restaurant

After spending several hours watching Japan animation and doing my manicure, I felt guilty for not updating my blog. Hmm... Don't blame me, it's a beautiful Sunday over here. You just don't feel like working. But... Due to your encouraging comments, I reluctantly lift my butt out of the comfy couch and back to work. Remember, it is Sunday here, big sacrifice I have made.

Knowing that blue Monday is your biggest enemy today, I decided to invite you to the Seattle Lola Greek Restaurant for a yummy treat.


This Greek-inspired restaurant located at the ground floor of Hotel Andra.


Busy kitchen.


HUNGRY?


Blogger at work. I wrote notes as record every time I travel or dine. I told you, I'm a serious blogger!!!




The signature Lola spreads freshly griddle pita with skordalia (garlic spread), US$ 3.50. (Taste good! Recommended.)


Smoky Manila Clams with cranberry beans,US$ 14 (Two thumbs up! Highly recommended!)


Kebab with charred onion, lemon and ouzo.
(Left) Lamb, caramelized garlic-red wine glaze, US$ 12
(Right) Squid, homemade special hot sauce, US$ 11
(These two taste ok only, not so impressive except the overcharged price)


Naturally raised pork with metaxa apple, US$ 11
(Medium done, juicy and chewy! Recommended!)




I rated it 3 stars out of 5. That was my second time trying Greek cuisine (first time was in Portland). It was a pleasant experience, I will definitely have courage to try more next time.


Of course, I won't be paying this. My responsibility were eating and rating. Thank you, darling.

Sorry dudes, we are still stuck in Seattle after all. I will push myself harder to work on my Vancouver trip photos. See you soon :D

From Portland to Seattle

I'm sorry!!! I do not mean to update so late. I started my first class for this Autumn yesterday (Yup, it is Autumn now in US). One word, overwhelmed. No choice, I have to put 200% efforts this time.

Apparently I proclaimed I spent my holiday at Vancouver. Why this post got nothing to do with Vancouver then? Be patient. I did visit Vancouver. Since we drive, we take the advantage of spending a night at Seattle too before arriving Vancouver.




A small and tiny room at Executive Hotel in downtown costs about US$ 200++. Well, our fault, we booked at very last minute and all the hotels were fully booked. Just one night, keep your finger cross and pray for a better hotel in Vancouver.




That night was pretty quiet. People in Seattle appreciate caffeine, but why they went to bed so early? It was just 9pm, the night was still young. Perhaps it is weekday.

I know you deserve more! More to come but I really can't promise when. I have 3 classes in this term, pretty heavy for me. Sigh...I wish I could update often like what I did last month. Sorry dudes, blogging is my interest but study still my priority.


Remember this look! You might not able to see me smile until end of this semester! Super stress. But also remember, I enjoy study a lot, always.

Have a great one, buddies :D

Last Night

Here it comes, the last Vancouver's night.
In two ticks, we will back to ordinary life.

Right now...
Reveal your true self, unwind your soul.

Shhh... Do not speak...
A mini-size whiskey, private party tonight.

Honeymooning Again

Hihi~~ I'm not back yet, but a little update :)


Posing with my new magenta cardigan from H&M, US$ 24.90 (excluding tax) at English Bay Beach.


The prove of honeymooning (Chean strongly suggested this photo).

For those who lost touch with my latest status, I'm spending my last week holidays in Vancouver B.C now! Thank you for all the wishes, I will play hard and enjoy to the fullest. Thank you for loving my LV bag as well, you guys are awesome! That's why I love sharing my life with you all.

Stay tuned, ok? I'll be back on Sunday.

Love Vuitton

Absolutely speechless. Grateful for this distinctly luxurious gift. A prefect companion to get back to my study life on next week. Also, a superior encouragement for pushing me to work harder and getting more As on next semester. I'm so in love with my second Louis Vuitton bags.

At the early stage, I was planning to get a Neverfull. After trying some other huge bags in LV store (I want a bag that can put everything), I bought Palermo GM instead. Despite paying double the price of a Neverfull, Palermo is really the best choice.


Flat leather handles with adjustable belt attachments for shoulder carry.


Hand carry.




Removable and adjustable shoulder strap for cross-body carry.


And for shoulder carry too. WATCH again, I removed the belts.

Excited? Wanna find out more? Ahh Ahh, I'm not going to tell you the price. Check out Louis Vuitton website yourself. Click HERE for more detail. Hehe...




** Latest Update **
I travel AGAIN! I'm packing now and probably on my way to Seattle. Will stay in Seattle for a day and move forward to Vancouver BC, Canada tomorrow. Woo Hoo~~ I can't wait to arrive the Asian Paradise!
