You Got Served

Ahhh... Blue C. This time our waiter was DeShawnda, she had a straight-up attitude and natural sass unlike any other waiter in the south-end, but that's why we liked her. She was straightforward and told it like it is. It's so refreshing to get the truth every now and then (take note Bubble Tea Lying Girl).

On to the food - mmmm... seared tuna! The picture really can't do it justice, you need to taste it to believe it. And today I felt hungrier than ever, but refrained from eating more than 6 plates - sushi at Blue C is deeelish for sure, but it's also really expensive. This really can't become a habit or I will need a part-time job.

J finally shared a secret that he has been keeping from B and I today - katsu potatoes are super tasty. I had it in my mind that they probably tasted something like homefries you'd order with your breakfast at Charlies on Broadway, but instead they taste similar to a beniet (French pastry) - slightly sweet, with a crispy outer shell and soft and pillowy in the middle.

After lunch, like a new habit, we went to the Bubble Tea Lying Girl Place and Self-Serve Fro Yo. I tried the frozen yogurt (not as good as ce Fiore) - green tea with strawberries, blueberries and Fruity Pebble cereal. It seems good for you. Anyway - it's self-serve, so I think I'm going to need some practice exercising self restraint, especially since the tub they give you to put your fro yo in is about 32 ounces.

Tummy Tukwila Top Moments

I'm snowed in and am dreaming of eating out, even in Tukwila (it's the cabin fever). Here's my personal countdown of the Top Tummy Tukwila Moments of 2008. Drum Roll....... #5. No more Sushi Land! Southcenter Mall reopens complete with a Blue C Sushi. Blue C is the Tummy Tukwila lunch savior. Blue C (and DeDe)....we love you! #4. The Psychic Paleontologist at Taco Del Mar. R and I witnessed the unsettling archeological dig at the serving line. This is also the woman who licked her burrito. The downside.....the Taco Queen is MIA. :( #3. Discovering a safe and natural Yeast Infection Cure . Thanks to the Birdkiller's super reading skills, B and R learn that yogurt at ceFiore is effective in the global fight against deadly (or at least uncomfortable) yeast. #2. The Trip . After an uneventful food court lunch, R decides to spice things up by unleashing a hip and horrifying tripping detonation. It was like the Energizer Bunny…it went on and on and on...... #1. Southcenter ...

The Jack Shack

We've all been either too busy or too lazy to write about our lunchtime adventures, but know this - we have had lunches - some were fabulous, others were sadly disappointing (Mali Thai) and at least one was down-right scandalous (Joey's). So to make up for the long absence, I'll thrill you with our adventure to: Joeys (their apostrophe is missing, not mine)... Even though I was warned , I had to see it for myself. Joey's is Cowboy Ugly and the Pussy Cat Dolls Lounge all rolled into one, great-big southend jack shack. To get the full effect, we sat in the bar where all the waitresses are 1. Former female strippers, 2. Current female strippers, and 3. Really know how to sex up an entree so you'll want to buy it. At first, I was overcome with the smart, sleek interior design. I felt like I was at The Parker in Palm Springs . The architecture is open and modern, the colors hip, and the booths are sleek. I was so busy ogling the fabulous design that I didn't even s...
