SEATTLE, WA (PART IV) WIFE'S BIRTHDAY
2 Jun - 2 Jul
My wife loves to watch the Food Network and it so happened to be the week before her Birthday that they had a episode on a restaurant in Seattle, WA. What's the chances of that? It was Man vs Food at the Crab Pot on pier 57. I saw her eyes light up when it looked to be an endless supply of all kind of assorted seafood. She LOVES seafood, I knew form that moment where I was going to take her for her Birthday dinner.
We started the afternoon off with a trip to the Space Needle. We debated for while, and decided not to go to the top. We walked around the plaza looking at the park water art and other activities going on.
Then, we headed downtown to the pier. The biggest problem was finding parking. We found a spot, but it was a little out of the way. Look at the stairs we had to walk, just to get from our parking spot down to the pier.
We arrived, what I thought was going to be for an early dinner, but the line said otherwise. The wait was about one and half hours. Any other time I would not stay and wait, but it was for her birthday and there was lots to see on the pier while we waited. We walked around the pier checking out the attractions and shops.
We now worked up an appetite and felt our stomachs growling we were ready to eat everything. As we got back to the Crab Pot we did not have to wait long before our name was called. We took our seat and wasted no time in ordering our food. For most Americans, it's might seem a little weird how they served the food,.. they dumped it on the table and you grab what you want to eat. It dose make for an easy clean up though. I guess our stomachs had a different plan, we could not finish it all and had to take the rest of the food home with us.
