Did you really go to Seattle if you didn't have a Seattle Dog? It was our last night in Seattle and…read morea couple of friends and I were on a hunt for a hotdog stand that was open on a Monday evening. We came across Monster Dogs and were immediately hooked by the smell. We ordered 2 Beef Polish Sausages Seattle Style ($6 each). What makes it a Seattle Dog is the onions and cream cheese. Who knew that would be great on a hotdog!? For the first one, we got most of the condiments on it including cream cheese, relish, sauerkraut, ketchup, mustard, mayo, and BBQ sauce. We opted to not get the jalapeños or Sriracha. For the second one, we kept it simple and just got the cream cheese, relish, and sauerkraut. For $6, it was so worth! This Seattle staple really impressed me and I know I will be dreaming about it until my next Seattle trip.

I like the concept a lot- budding chefs testing out new ideas…read more The food was, for the most part, just ok. Lines were really long and extraordinarily slow moving. Would loved to have seen more vendors, but understand this is a new idea and will take some time to develop. I was surprised at the comment that over half the food was vegetarian or gluten free. As a vegetarian I tried all savory veggie options, of which there were exactly 4. My daughter (not vegetarian) had many more options to try. I would love a comment card to leave for vendors. The venue isn't really conducive to feedback but would have liked to be able to discretely let vendors know where little tweaks would make a big difference (like cooking rice all the way through and presentation or nomenclature of dishes). All in all, will give it another try or two and see how it shapes up. Hoping it'll improve in the future!

Not bad. It is not…read more5-star for me because the vendor options were rather limited. Also some items are definitely overpriced. I have rarely heard of a vendor could sell a small bottled water or diet soda (without refills) for $2. I was able to get inside quickly. Once inside, I was rather disappointed. For some reasons I had the impression that there would be booths packed everywhere. Rather, there were only about 10 - 15 tables around. I walked around first and thought oh maybe there would be more tables outside. But that was not the case. Yes there were long queues everywhere. However, the wait for me was not too bad. It was about 5 to 10 minutes of a wait. Food portion was small but many items were reasonably priced. Some items were definitely overpriced. There were a couple of tables where the food was pretty yummy. The chowder lady was so amazing! Too bad she has not officially opened up her business just yet. There were a couple of popular tables that sold out very quickly. I was able to try/sample at least 5 or 6 booths. I am glad I got there early. I will come back if there is a next time, just perhaps with much less excitement for sure.

I didnt see it and parked down the road but the streets around here are on a hill so I had a bit of a trek. The ambiance was cute, friendly, and neighborly. There are two rows to walk through and the patio seating of a restaurant was playing live music so there was a fun ambiance. Surprisingly there were more food options than I expected and some really good options that I've seen at larger markets. I was able to get some delicioius peaches, and a mix and match deal of berries. I'd come to this market again if I'm in the area or lived in the neighborhood but because parking was a bit hard and the market is so small, I would say it was just OK.

Though the market is not very big, it was very busy which I attribute to its location and it being held at the end of the work week. Selection is mixed with a few fresh produce vendors, but this market seems to lean more towards prepared foods. Comparable to the mix at the Wallingford Farmers Market, but on a smaller scale. It seems like a nice place to hangout for residents of this neighborhood or if you are on your way home and want to pick up a few things beforehand.

Haven't met a farmers market we didn't like!! Till now!!…read more I get that its covid. But man this place is snobby. And very much un-fun!! They have lines/tape around all over so you can't just enter. You do have to walk all the way to 5th and something for an entry. Which also include a huge line, a very unnecessary loud teenage band playing ( tone deaf loud) next to all the restaurants/their outdoor seats. You cant social distance even if you try. All I wanted was some fresh flowers for the cemetery and we ended up walking the whole market twice from outside trying to find an entrance. They do have a different entrance where they turn everyone away in the scorching hot heat! And last but not least: No dogs allowed? What? Isn't that the whole point of farmers market? Family/dog friendly? Baci got his socializatio in as a tiny pupper from Ballard market. It's like a puppy parade every time you go there. We ended up skipping because of this!! I did see 2 old ladies left their dog outside, next to the loud as hell band so they can walk the market for something. We watched the sad pup the whole time till they return! Really though. No flowers/spices are worth leaving your beloved old dog behind Overall, the least fun farmers market ever!! if it werent for random facemask, you wouldnt even know there was covid. Hot! Over crowded! Many flowers stands. Not that special!

Glad to have found Espi's at the Pagdiriwang Phillipine Festival. Espi's is a food stand that…read moreserves up Filipino favorites, with combos - all less than nine bucks! I got the combo with chicken adobo, lumpia and pancit, and added a side of a BBQ chicken skewer. The combo itself was eight bucks and the skewer was an additional three bucks, which was a bargain! And the food was yummy, too! Although there wasn't a lot of the egg noodles, the pancit was a combination of bihon and canton styles! Usually, I always see bihon pancit served at Filipino joints, but my favorite has always been the canton since I was a kid (and still remember eating it every year on my birthday for good luck!), so really liked that they did a mix of the noodles. The chicken adobo was solid, as it was tender, but wish it just had a tad more vinegar and soy sauce flavor that you just love with adobo. Lumpia was A-O-K, as it was slightly overfried. But the BBQ chicken skewer was by far, my favorite item. It had crispy edges from the grill, yet was so juicy and tender. It's what you hope BBQ chicken will be, and enjoyed the somewhat-sweet marinade. You can even watch the cooks grilling and flipping over the several skewers right by the stand, tempting all those passing by with the aroma. Get some! There was a long line during the festival, but it went by very fast. Staff was super friendly and even though when I got to the line I was still undecided about which combo I was gonna order, they were patient with me despite the long line forming. Just remember to bring cash here, as they didn't accept cards.

Let's face it out this late I'm only drinking and making bad decisions so hell what's one more with an all beef dog.... 12 Inches of meat, mustard and bun is all FRANK needs to coat my stomach... Ok, the chef is an amazing. Only using a crusty grill and fire he turns the mystery meat tubes into fine dining... Your nostrils can smell the searing flesh and onions a block away. As you make your way closer to the grill you canine teeth grow longer to masticate that charred dog. I mean FRANK needs some black charred marks on his dog to verify it's grilled to perfection... I always asked for the most grilled meat simply for taste, crispness and making sure I don't get E. coli from undercooked meat.... Once I have in hand I gobble it up and then it's time to make my way to bed..... Leave a tip cause FRANK B says so !

The interior design is modern and welcoming, and there is an outdoor patio as well. I decided to order from the Pacific Rim station. For the entrée, I chose Thai Chicken Fried Rice: rice stir-fried with chicken, veggies, egg, soy sauce and scallions ($7.99), along with Honey Walnut Prawns ($4) as a side. The fried rice was well-balanced in soy sauce flavor and not overwhelmingly oily or salty. Chicken pieces were coated in a thin batter and tender. As for the prawns, they were crispy and lightly coated in dressing so it was not too sweet or heavy. One of the nicer Microsoft cafeterias that I have visited, and would be inclined to return to try the other stations. The falafel bowl from the Mediterranean station looked quite tasty as I walked by afterwards.
