We have been going to this place for 8 years now and nothing has changed. They have served the same traditional american breakfast/brunch menu for years. This is not a fancy place, but I like the very casual and family ambiance and the always friendly staff.
Be aware that portions are huge! My order is always the same: Eggs Benedict and Pancakes!

Stateside is a restaurant that opened last Winter in Capitol Hill. I wanted to go there because I really loved their decor with green walls and palmy greens on the wall paper!
They serve Vietnamese cuisine with Chinese and French influences. We went there for lunch and the menu was simple: salads, sandwiches, soups and noodles.
Here are the dishes that we ordered and enjoyed, because they are all fresh and tasty.
It was a great experience. This place is perfect because not too loud for business lunch or meet with friends. I need to go back for dinner.
If Stateside has been on your list of new places to try, try it and let us know what you think.
Thursday is Guest Chef Night at FareStart and for this special evening, students work with a different Seattle’s Chef each week to prepare a special 3-course dinner.
By dining at the FareStart Restaurant and for $30 only, you can enjoy a great evening while also learning more about the FareStart program. A very special part of the evening is the graduation of 2 or 3 students and celebration of their accomplishment.
All proceeds from Guest Chef Night go directly back into the program to support the FareStart job training and placement programs.
Next month, on October 22nd, Jason Stoneburner, Chef at Bastille and Stoneburner (read my post about Stoneburner here) will be the Guest Chef volunteering his time with FareStart Students.
I really like this organization, a job training and placement program for homeless and disadvantaged individuals. You can read my previous post on FareStart.
FareStart Restaurant is open for lunch, Monday through Friday from 11am to 2 pm, and for Guest Chef Night dinners on Thursdays.
