Groceries

A local "superstore" for groceries, home goods, and seemingly everything else -- within easy walking distance. They carry a solid selection of organic foods, bread from Grand Central Bakery (among others), and a wide wine and cheese selection (Murray's NYC). For Whole Foods or Trader Joe's, head to nearby Ballard.

Quite a nice grocery market, an alternative to Whole Foods. A short drive away in Ballard. Freshly made pizzas, sandwiches, self-serve salad bar. Across the street from Trader Joe's, so worth a peek.

The closest Grand Central Bakery outpost to our place. We love their bread, both the Como and Ciabatta are excellent.

Artisinal pizzas made from "imported Italian ingredients". The two options we tried (Capricciosa, Funghi) were indeed very fine.

Our new favorite pizza place -- thin & bubbly crust, piping hot straight from the oven. Smooth sauce, not too salty, with plentiful toppings.

A well-known seafood restaurant on the water, a short drive away. Solid service, nice views. Their signature dish -- Pacific Sablefish (a.k.a. black cod) -- was delicious; the Salmon was also great.

Sightseeing

A local park, with a nice 2.8 mile loop around the lake for walking/running. A 15 min walk from our place. Duke's Seafood and public tennis courts are there as well. Beware: Lots of people on sunny days! :)

Neighborhoods

This (mostly) car-free avenue, is part of Seattle's 'Stay Healthy Streets' initiative. It's perfect for a stroll (or a jog) down to Phinney Ridge. Popular with the locals, it can get quite busy at times. And the well-kept craftsman homes along the way are cuteness galore!
