Orient Yourself Downtown

Do you know this way to remember the order of the streets downtown?
The names of the 12 downtown streets are paired by their first letters. From South to North, they are:
Jefferson, James, Cherry, Columbia, Marion, Madison, Spring, Seneca, University, Union, Pike and Pine.

“Jesus Christ Made Seattle Under Protest”. What does it mean? Nothing! But if you memorize this weird sentence, next time you walk or drive downtown, you’ll be able to orient yourself better.

Winter Lunch at Revel

Lunches at Revel in Fremont are always great. The ambiance is easygoing and the Asian fusion food is really really tasty.

I was there last week with a friend and we shared a salad (Corned lamb, mizuna, spicy nuoc cham) and a plate of pasta (Beef, lemongrass and leeks). The portions were just right for us and prices were reasonable.

If you have not been there yet, give it a try.
