Saturday in Queen Anne

Imagine there is no Space Needle: it looks like the Swiss Alps overlooking Bodensee.

Early morning on Cap Hill ...

...time to get up and discover Queen Anne N

Churning Puget Sound

Glittering reflections

Be focused

Give shelter to the Space Needle (Coffee Shop on  1st Ave)

Gourmet trip through Seattle

For those foodies amongst you here are my tips for must-tastes:

Eggs California. Best "Katerfruehstueck" ever

I did not dare to taste it...

...but I was brave enough to savor peanut butter ice cream 

All excited about the burger experience

Everyone is still looking quite happy. The bad burger feeling has not set in yet


In Germany we call this Broiler

Yummy Dim Sum at Dim Sum King - the bottom right "thing" looks like a "handelsübliche Maultasche"

Oatmeal for breakfast after a good morning run in Volunteer Park

Colourful desert in a grocery store in China town

Chicken foot for breakfast - Yummy

Wednesday half price off at Blue Moon

...no this is not a cheese cake

a burger a day keeps the doctor away

Best coffee in town
