What We Crave
Delicious, simple Southwestern food is cuisine orgami: Wrap cheese and sauce in a tortilla this way, and it's a taco. Fold it that way, it's a burrito. Add an egg, and ta-da! ... it's huevos rancheros. The migas (mee-yas) at Portage Bay Café ($11.95) in the University District is like all three rolled into one and served piping hot for breakfast.

Vegans get hangovers, too. That's probably why weekend breakfasts are keeping Georgetown's new vegan cafe, Squid & Ink, hopping.

Ballard is fast becoming Seattle's breakfast epicenter. Fans of the most important meal of the day have a wealth of options, among them the hearty breakfasts served at the Hi-Life, the excellent weekend brunches at Volterra and the weekday take-away choices at Café Besalu. Vera's, Senor Moose Cafe, Hattie's Hat, Nervous Nellie's, The Dish, Wild Mountain Café and even Cupcake Royale all offer a tasty breakfast. If the bars and clubs of Belltown and Capitol Hill hold the franchise on Seattle nightlife, the cafes and restaurants of Ballard have a lock on curing the town's collective hangover.

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.

One of my favorite pastimes while doing shopping "research" is bakery-hopping. I'm always looking for the best of my favorites - poppy seed cake, brownies, Russian teacakes, chocolate chip cookies, breads, cinnamon rolls, croissants … well, you get the picture.
