I was so impressed with the food and service at Woodinville’s Barking Frog Restaurant when Carrie and I ate there, that I went back the following week with my fiance, James. It was a pleasant surprise when we arrived and found out they have a brand new Fall menu. Executive chef, Bobby Moore welcomed us at the door and allowed ...
I am so excited to share this post with you! I had not ever had an opportunity to have a meal at The Herbfarm restaurant in Woodinville, WA, and (embarassingly) I had not even stepped inside before. When I finally did go visit a few weeks ago, I was there to pick up the truffle box dinner for an at-home date ...
If you’re on an extended trip to visit Woodinville wineries and taste Washington wine at one of our more than 120 wineries, you might plan to eat at several of our top rated restaurants. You’ll probably put Purple Cafe, Barking Frog at Willows Lodge, Hollywood Tavern and Heritage Restaurant|Bar on the top of your list. You’ll probably get brunch at ...
With Halloween falling on a Wednesday this year, I didn’t really feel like throwing a festive Halloween party for grownups like I did a few years ago when it fell on a weekend. It’s a lot of work to host and clean up after a party on a worknight! Plus, my friends all have schoolchildren and would need to be ...
On a recent weeknight, I was really in the mood to go have a drink at the Fireside Lounge outdoor patio at Willows Lodge here in Woodinville. It had occurred to me that with autumn approaching, it will soon be too cold to sit outdoors in the evening, and the hotel will safely store away their patio furniture until next year. ...
r For a recent weeknight dinner, I decided to make a colorful dinner with a bag of gourmet Arcobaleno pasta I picked up at Cost Plus World Market recently. I set a pretty table outside – my boyfriend and I dine outdoors whenever possible. (Disclosure: Some of the links in this post are affiliate links. This means if you click ...
Earlier this summer, Jen and I took her daughters on an overnight vacation to Wenatchee and to Cave B Inn. We were warned to make dinner reservations ahead of time at the popular Tendrils restaurant at the resort. There’s literally nowhere else to dine for miles around, and people from surrounding areas come here for special dinners. We took the ...
My friend Angie’s birthday coincided with Memorial Day Weekend this year. She had plans to celebrate with her son on her actual birthday, so I asked if I could take her to dinner to celebrate a couple days early. When she said yes, I immediately thought to take her to a nice weeknight dinner at Tandem Dinner + Wine Bar. ...
Recently I stopped by Goose Ridge’s tasting room here in Woodinville, eager to check out their highly anticipated canned wine. (By the way, this post is not sponsored by them and I paid for my wine myself!) I’ve been holding onto my six pack in case we went to the beach or a picnic, but we haven’t. So instead, I ...
My friend Wendy and I were planning to go listen to live music and drink wine at The Woodhouse Estates on a recent Girls Night. Wendy hadn’t been to Woodinville Cut Shop yet and I wanted her to check it out. We arrived to find their doors flung wide to let in sunlight and fresh air – I love that! ...
