Can't Miss It: Monday
Thanksgiving Pairing Suggestion: Sides with a Pint
We're in the International District, walking down the street, past the whole roasted ducks displayed in windows, sniffing fried Chinese food and fragrant pho broth, searching for the one thing that seems not to exist in the ID--coffee.
We see the bright neon sign of Gossip Espresso and Tea and cross the street. A hand-written sign on the door says, "Closing at 6pm today." It's 5:55 and we sprint up to the counter and ask for a latte.
A very tiny Asian gal says, "We don't have coffee. Can I get you a bubble tea?"
With confusion, we ask about the large neon sign, Gossip Espresso and Tea.
"Yeah, we don't do that anymore."
If you're looking for coffee in the ID, don't go to Gossip, cuz it ain't there. Does anyone know of good espresso in the ID? We're languishing down here with our cup of green tea.

Just that Starbucks in the Amazon office complex. Does that count as the ID? Close enough for me. But it think it closes pretty early too. You'll have to hump it 5 minutes to P-square. Oh the humanity.
this made me laugh out loud. (i am not doing the damn acronym.)
I live close to the ID to and it is a desert for latte lovers. I head up to the wonderful Coffee Animals on 12th and James.
Peeps, go check out the Panama Hotel Coffee & Tea House. Living in the ID, that is the spot I go to. Good coffee, great history.
Then there is always All City Coffee, close enough to the ID on 4th.
There is more to find than bubble tea here.
I live in the ID too and I personally skip on over to Zeitgeist on Jackson and 2nd in Pioneer Square. I still have yet to try Panama Hotel or All City Coffee.
Bubble tea ain't the best drink in the world but I can still enjoy it from time to time.
In that area of town, Zeitgeist FTW. Organic nonfat milk, Top Pot doughnuts, delicious food, and Best White Chocolate Mocha ever (not too sweet) .
boxofjack, your mission is to go to the Panama Hotel, and pronto.
Report back, once you have done so.
Enjoy.
