. . . eat, drink and be entertained at The Pink Door (Post Alley, PikePlace Market, Seattle, Washington; but watch for it, there is no sign onthe pink door).

Just thinking about it, makes me want to hop on a plane(business class) and eat my way through a meal of bruschetta del’estiva – grilled ciabatta bread w/the ripest summer organic heirloomtomato, basilico trampetti olive oil & sea salt; linguine allevongole – fresh baby clams, pancetta, garlic, peperoncini & whitewine; cioppino pink door – prawns, mussels, clams, and calamari in aspicy tomato and white wine broth, and for good measure, spiedini misti –mixed grill of chicken, zucchini, mushrooms, preserved lemon, giantcroutons, fresh bay leaf & bell peppers.

Its like Italia, only in Seattle, and you don’t pay in Euros. Hungryyet?

Part Bohemian loft, trattoria, and Pigalle cabaret, The PinkDoor is not just a restaurant, it is an experience; the creation of miaamica Jacquellina Di Roberto. And if you get there at the right time,you’ll see the acrobat swinging on the restaurant’s high trapeze. Checkout the website,it is delicious too.
