In December we wrote about local restaurant review site Urbanspoon. We loved it then, we love it now, and we've been loving it in the interim. Since we last chatted with Ethan Lowry, one of the three brains behind the site, Urbanspoon has really fleshed things out and branched out to a bunch of other cities. Are you a food guy or a tech guy? What's your background? I've been eating since I was born,......

He's a transplant from Boston so while we've tried to warn him off of reaching for the Big Dig comparisons every day, he'll probably slip a few past us at some point. Out of the gate it looks like he's unearthed historical precedent for our current situation. Give him a warm Seattle welcome.

Seattlest is pretty fond of our neighbors to the North--this much you probably already know. But despite our weakness for Canuckery, we can't avoid mocking curling as a sport, albeit an Olympic one. As luck would have it, a bunch of Seattlest's co-workers went curling and we got dragged along. Research, we rationalized, just research. We were happy to find there is a bar at the local curling rink. OK, it is less a......

Who are the 11:30pm girls? What: The Attic, Alehouse & Eatery When: Wed, 4/20, 9pm There’s nothing better than getting pissed on beer and soaking up the alcohol in your belly with some nice, greasy bar food. The Attic, a 50+ year establishment in Madison Park with 20 different beers on tap, is just the place to do this. Worn-in and comfy, this pub is also the perfect place to watch sports on about a......
