Rain City Burger

Super Bowl Weekend is here, it’s not really the time for fancy restaurants or cafés!
While the whole city is cheering for the SEAHAWKS, there is a place in town that always wears the city team’s colors: Rain City Burger. This is a very good place to have a burger.


You can order a MARINERS burger (Avocado, bacon, Cheddar cheese), a SOUNDERS Burger (Cream cheese, jalapeño, bacon, Pepper Jack cheese), or a HUSKIES Burger (Cheddar and Swiss cheese, caramelized onion, Rain City Hot Sauce).

If you are a really hungry Seahawks fan, get a 12TH MAN burger (Two beef patties, four slices of bacon, and two slices of American cheese!). They are really good and there are plenty of other unique options on the menu, even vegetarians burgers.

And of course when you are there, you can watch the game…

Volunteer Park Conservatory

I stopped at the Conservatory during a walk around Volunteer Park on Capitol Hill. The East Wing has been completely renovated and you can now access the 5 different display sections of this Victorian-style green house.

Some areas have benches, where you can sit and relax while watching the exotic flowers and plants.

Joule is a Jewel

You don’t expect a restaurant to have a nice and warm design in a warehouse style building. Joule does. The decor is really stylish and I love the blue and black creative wallpaper.

The Asian fusion and Korean food they serve is creative and flavorful. Dishes are meant to be shared but make sure to save room for dessert.
I would recommend to make a reservation but if you don’t, enjoy the outdoor fire pit with a cocktail or a glass of whatever you like on a nice evening!

Side Notes:
The restaurant adjoins The Whale Wins, which I wrote about a few months ago. To read the article bout Whale wins.
And check out Revel from the same owners/chefs I also wrote twice about: Winter lunch at Revel and Sunny day at Revel.
