The next time your family is in the mood for
Mexican cuisine, consider taking a culinary detour farther south instead. Most Seattle parents are
familiar with the kid-friendly favorites of burritos, tacos, and rice and
beans, but they're less acquainted with other Latin American dishes, which offer a
different twist on some of the same ingredients.

End of the Line
Two thoughts occurred to me as I got off the number 66 bus. As soon as the coach arrived at the end of its downtown-to-Northgate express run -- the Northgate Park & Ride lot, located behind the stack of big-box stores that faces the Northgate Mall -- I thought, "Hey, this bus stops right behind the Target. I'm gonna need to remember that the next time I need cat litter/socks/utilitarian objects designed by Michael Graves."

Convergence Zone
If you’re wearing flip-flops in Seattle at this early stage of spring, I expect you’re doing one of three things: deboarding a plane at Sea-Tac, taking a shower in a college dorm or having a meal at the Kona Kitchen.

Like any wine shop worth its pinot, a tour of the racks is a walk around the world. But what makes this shop so special is the depth and breadth of the journey in such an intimate space. The philosophy here is closer to the old adage, "The customer's always right." Most of the inventory's passed several taste tests, the most important being that of the Thursday congregation. Prices and bottles range from $7 for something like the Deakin Estate Shiraz to $134 for the likes of a 1999 Le Pigeonnier du Chateau LaGrezette from France.
