This time of year we have our own variety of kiwi available at the farmers market. Hardy kiwis, the size of a table grape, are grown in Port Townsend and available for only one month of the year from Green Water Farm. more ›

Flight of the Conchords are performing three nights at the Paramount Theatre next week and if you get off your sugar lumps and get moving, you've still got a good chance at getting tickets for you and the most beautiful girl (or boy) in the room. more ›

Because we know you want to know, it's your weekly look at what is keeping Seattlest engaged this weekend. more ›

Yes, it's the return of Stalk of the Town where Seattlest lets you in on our weekend plans. Got something going on we should know about? Drop a note in the comments. more ›

Slate takes 1,700 words to say what we already know instinctively: wine's a drink for elitist snobs, beer's for real men. Wine is “aspirational,” beer is for real men. The current Henry Weinhard campaign puts it bluntly: beer tastes better than soy milk. Well, duh. more ›

Memorial Day weekend is finally behind us, so it's time to settle into SIFF. Yes, it's absolutely lovely outside, but Seattleites can only handle so much sun. Get away from all that UVA/UVB exposure and spend your time in the theaters' comfortable darkness. more ›

Last Saturday, Seattlest attended what may be one of the final public screenings of Not Straight Forward, a documentary film by Jenny Ting, about Seattle’s lesbian dating scene. Saturday’s screening was the icebreaker to a broader evening of burlesque, feather boas and dancing, provided by Girl4Girl Productions.

Seattle is lucky enough to join such cities as Berlin, Dublin, Sao Paolo, and Cape Town as this year's host city for the Red Bull Music Academy, a five week program that brings a truly international mix of beat-enthusiasts together to learn about the historical, technical, and networking aspects of the music industry. more ›
