A haunted house, but make it cocktail hour. 🥂👻

We checked out Haunted Soiree at Seattle’s historic Rainier Chapter House, and honestly, this is exactly our kind of Halloween night! 🎃

We’re talking candlelight, cocktails, incredible costumes, live performances, and even a murder mystery inspired by a real case from 1928 (whaaaat?!) 🔎🕯️

It’s more spooky-fun than genuinely terrifying, so you can leave your survival instincts at home and just enjoy the night.. 😂

If dressing up, sipping cocktails, and wandering through a crazy beautiful haunted house sounds like your kind of evening, this is definitely the place to be! 🖤

There’s really not much more we can ask of this cafe! 🙌🏼

We finally stopped by onda origins and immediately understood why it’s a hit - it’s colorful, creative, full of personality, but also just.. really good! ☕️

Their fall lattes are bangers and their pastries (from their sister brand Fresh Flours Seattle) are just perfection. Not to mention, they have a fridge full of breakfast burritos and sandwiches plus a free mug exchange outside.. hello?! 🤯

We simply love what they’re doing here, we think you will too! 👀

Dinner plans need some spice? 🦀 

We checked out Thecaptaincrab Silverdale the other day and it was absolutely worth the drive! From the lobster to the clams to the garlic bread, everything we tried was a hit. That King Crab and Crab Fried Rice though… the ultimate combo (just saying).

We had so much fun digging in and getting messy (don’t worry, they give you bibs and gloves), but they also have non-seafood items so it’s great for groups, too!

If you’re looking for some cajun across the sound, grab some friends and make a little day trip out of it!

This tuna tasted like we just landed back in Japan! 🍣

We stopped by THEKOI Sushi & Sake and found out they weren’t exaggerating about that fresh fish. They fly it in every week, so the menu actually changes every few days, and the otoro nigiri melted the second it hit our mouths.

Tag your sushi-obsessed friend and go see for yourself! 🙌

Found a spot in Kent that feels like a little trip to the Middle East 🥙✨

Byblos Mediterranean Market is an Iraqi + Mediterranean restaurant and market where you can eat, shop, and watch traditional dishes come to life.

We tried SO much — beef + lamb kebabs, chicken + lamb tikka, shawarma, falafel, hummus, baba ghanoush, salads, and way too many desserts 😂 Everything was so fresh, but those kebabs?? Easily some of the best we’ve had.

The market is also packed with imported snacks + groceries from all over the Middle East.

If you’re in Kent, definitely add Byblos to your list!

Nothing like zombie cheerleaders with a side of haunted library cocktails! 😌

We’ve officially rung in spooky season with another quarterly visit to Can Can Culinary Cabaret and the vibes could not be ANY better! 🤌🏻

Between Zombie Cheerleaders From Hell and the Haunted Library pop-up bar, this was everything we needed and more! The show was incredible as per usual, the food was equally as delicious, the drinks were flowing and all was well in the world! 🎃

Both Zombie Cheerleaders From Hell and the Haunted Library bar are running until November 1st, so start getting those dates in the books! 👀

Something new just dropped from a soap maker who used to work at Microsoft. 👀

We met Poornima at her popup at the Kirkland market and heard her whole story, from watching her mom make homemade face masks growing up, to leaving her career at Microsoft to build Citrus Tree ®️ | Ayurvedic Skincare + Natural Soap. Today she’s officially launching a new perfume and facial oil, made with just essential oils. ✨ Her name literally means “full moon,” and the launch happens to land on an actual full moon. Go check it out!

We’re back at Great Notion, this time in Georgetown!

Great Notion Washington’s flavors are seriously fun, think strawberry cheesecake and key lime pie in b**r form 🍻 Their Halloween lineup is dropping soon, including a Blueberry Muffin b**r with a new horror movie costume every year 🧟

If you’re in Georgetown, this is your sign to stop in before the seasonal drinks disappear!
