Low-Fat Ain't Worth a Damn
Turns out that a low-fat diet doesn't reduce your risk of getting cancer or heart disease. Thank you, thank you, thank you, medical science. Cheer over your spilled skim milk and then make haste to the following former danger zones:
Cave Man Kitchens: Melt-in-your-mouth barbeque that's worth the drive to Kent. This is the very barbeque that the Chicago White Sox ate after clinching the 1983 AL West division crown at the Kingdome, and at CK they have the (laudatory) letter on the wall to prove it. Map.
Ezell's Fried Chicken: When Oprah isn't buttering up Dave Chappelle, she's buttering up the rolls, or chomping a thigh, from Seattle's original fried chicken mecca. The original location is on 23rd and Cherry, but you can also reintroduce yourself to fried goodness in South Seattle or Lynnwood. Locations.
Zesto's Burger and Fish House: The ancient jukebox and the big cushy booths are a good enough reason to visit this Ballard landmark, across the street from Ballard High. Not to mention the 1/2 lb. burgers and the crisp onion rings. But the shakes...oh, the shakes...so thick, so creamy, and now, so healthy. And the fruit shakes have real bits of fruit in them, if you are into that. Map.
