Seattle Eats Diary 🍚 | Hit or Miss, Every Bite’s an Adventure

Has anyone noticed the sunsets are getting later lately? 🌅 Seattle’s best season is finally around the corner! Waking up to sunlight streaming through the blinds every morning suddenly gives me the biggest appetite (weird, right? 😜) When the mood’s good, every meal tastes better! 🍽️ Meat Moot Seattle A new Turkish chain kebab spot near SLU 🥙 Let’s just say it’s all style, no substance. Everything—from the ordering system to the food quality—feels like fast food, and the meat is about $50 a pound 🤑. That fancy iron plate? It doesn’t even keep the food warm! The meat turns lukewarm the second it hits the table 🥶. On a 5-star scale, this gets a 2.5/5—no more, no less. 🍽️ Castilla Restaurant and Tapas Bar Great service and ambiance 🪑—perfect for dinner and chats with friends! Drinks are just so-so 🥤, nothing to write home about. Highly recommend: Roasted brussels sprouts and octopus legs 🐙—flawless, no complaints! Skip: Rabbit legs 🐰—a bit gamey, and the artichokes underneath taste better than the meat itself 😅. 🥡 Hong Kong Bistro One takeout order from here feeds me for three meals 🥢—unbeatable value, perfect for lazy people like me! My go-tos: Dry-Fried Beef Ho Fun, Braised Eggplant in Fish Flavor Sauce, Dim Sum Chicken Feet, Red Fermented Bean Curd Pork Knuckles 🐷. Pair it with an Iced Yuenyeung (DO NOT drink it in the afternoon—you’ll be up all night ☕🥛)! I always add a splash of vinegar to my dry-fried beef ho fun for extra zing 🧂. 🍜 Kizuki My trusty weekday fast food buddy 🍥! Skip: The all-chicken ramen—it’s a bit gamey and way too greasy 🫤. Must-try: Yuzu Shoyu, Spicy Miso, and Extra Spicy Ramen 🌶️—these three are chef’s kiss. 🥞 Cafe Hagen Every location has such cute decor ☕—ideal for working on your laptop with a coffee alone! Their brunch menu has so many options 🥓—total hell for anyone with decision fatigue 😵. #SeattleLife #SeattleEats #FoodAdventuresInSeattle #CollegeEatsDoneRight #SeattleFoodie
