The weekend is approaching (thank Jesus!), and we thought we’d share with you TWO weekend date ideas for your reading pleasure. A Splurge date, for those of you throwing caution to the wind, and a Steal date, for those of you who, like us, are trying to save our pennies for a rainier day.
Now, you all know that Brett and I are obsessed with the Food Network. And any time one of our beloved Seattle restaurateurs/executive chefs/bus-boys/whatever’s are featured on one of the network’s shows, we simply MUST try their spot immediately.
Well… what if we told you that, this Sunday, several of them, along with other AMAZING Seattle chefs from our List – are teaming up and cooking – gasp! – TOGETHER!
Yes, you heard us right.
Seattle Chefs Collaborative Presents 'Urban Picnic'— A fundraiser for the Quillisascut Farm School Scholarship.
Enjoy a Sunday afternoon of fun and food on the rooftop deck at Rainier Square and help send local rising culinary stars to the Quillisascut Farm school in Rice, WA.
Top Seattle chefs will prepare a 'Picnic to Remember' of culturally important Northwest foods from the Renewing Americas Food Traditions (RAFT) list of endangered foods. Eat it to save it!
Check out all the details—and the amazing line up—(including Top Chef’s Robin Leventhal!) HERE. $99 a ticket, but for a REALLY great cause!
Okay, for those of you NOT wanting to fork over $99 for a dinner, fear not. We’ve found something just as fun for you!
Most of you have heard that our beloved Patrick Swayze passed away last Monday. We all remember his work in Dirty Dancing, Ghost, and my favorite, To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar.
But, there’s another Patrick Swayze treat that’s worth a mention. It’s Road House. It’s GOOD. And, it’s playing at the Central Cinema on Capitol Hill TONIGHT!
Central Cinema is the perfect place for your total Date-Night experience! See your favorite cult classics the way they were meant to be seen, on a big screen, with big sound, in a room full of people. Have a fun night out without having to spend a bundle.
They have a full menu, so you can grub while you watch the film. I always keep an eye on their show times, since they are always bringing in old classics (Dark Crystal, Say Anything, Amelie… just to name a few!). Road House is no exception.
So grab your sweetie, put on your I Heart Patrick tee-shirts, and head over to Central Cinema for a night to remember! Or, if you want to wait for the weekend flick, that's fine too, since they're showing the awesomely greusome independent guerilla film, Poultryguist. Who doesn't love chicken zombies? I know we do. Director/Producer Lloyd Kaufman will be there in the flesh (punn intended) to meet his fans on Friday and Saturday nights!

Happy Dating!
