Molly Moon Hits its Stride, Offers More than Ice Cream in Queen Anne

Molly Moon Hits its Stride, Offers More than Ice Cream in Queen Anne

Despite a recent turn in temperature, Molly Moon's Homemade Ice Cream's newest location on Queen Anne has been tempting those strolling by since the space went from "empty storefront" to "purveyor of tasty treats" back in September. And fortunately for all us (QA residents or otherwise), this uptick in business means Ms. Moon has been able to expand the store's offerings to go beyond the company's dessert, to include the most important meal of the day: breakfast. Well, if your breakfast usually incorporates ice cream. more ›

Sneak Peek: SIFF Pulls Back the Curtain on the Uptown

Sneak Peek: SIFF Pulls Back the Curtain on the Uptown

The Uptown Theater comes back to life tomorrow night as the projection switch is flipped and the silver screen is once again lit up with moving images. Last year, the future of the Uptown was uncertain as AMC bowed out of its 50 year lease on the long time Queen Anne movie house and left open the possibility of the historic theater being gutted and laid dormant for at least five years. Fortunately for the cinéaste in all of us, SIFF Cinema stepped in immediately and gave the Uptown a new lease on life. more ›

Three Cheers for Urban Planning: Pedestrian Overpass to Break Ground Next Month

Three Cheers for Urban Planning: Pedestrian Overpass to Break Ground Next Month

Seattle recently got rated one of the top ten safest cities for pedestrians, yet many of our neighborhoods are so insular, they're separated by impossible-to-cross arterials or frayed edges that take pedestrians from sidewalks and storefronts to construction and no sidewalks. Enter the Lake 2 Bay Loop, a proposed pedestrian-friendly initiative designed to attractively and accessibly connect Elliot Bay to Lake Union. more ›

Re:Take:  Cliff Hanger

Re:Take: Cliff Hanger

Re:Take is Seattlest contributor and local history buff Rob Ketcherside's new weekly look at the Emerald City Now and in days of yore. Each week, Rob will bring us a pair of photos - one from Seattle's municipal archives, and one of the same spot as it apears today. Rob starts us out this week in Queen Anne, where the construction of apartment buildings once got a bit out of control to the detriment of the area. Of course, we know better now. more ›

Born Toulouse on Lower Queen Anne

    

There's so much going on at Toulouse Petit, a New Orleans-themed brasserie that opened last night at Queen Anne & Mercer, you don't know quite where to start. A year in the building, you can see the effort on the walls, the floors, the tabletops, in the platoons of staff and the extensive menus (food, wine, cocktails, happy hour, with breakfast and lunch still to come). There's something for every wallet here, starting with a fatcat's $42 steak (filet with foie gras, veal-cognac-shallot reduction, white truffle oil). For the frugal, the happy hour menu offers boudin blanc ($4), spicy fried alligator ($5), lamb's tongue en remoulade ($6); for the spendthrift, a blackened USDA prime rib eye ($18). more ›

Made In Seattle: Neighborhood Tees

Made In Seattle: Neighborhood Tees

Neighborhood shout-outs are fun! Because then everyone knows you live there, in that neighborhood! Seattleite couple hoofinitdesigns takes their original ‘hood designs and hand-screens them onto cotton t-shirts. Simple as that. For the time being, only Queen Anne, Pioneer Square, Ballard and Fremont tees are available, but we're rooting for some new neighborhood designs to be posted in the future. more ›

<em>Sunset Magazine</em> Ruining Our Drinking Stairs Cred

Sunset Magazine Ruining Our Drinking Stairs Cred

As former residents of Queen Anne, we can vouch for the myriad of stairs and passageways that connect the hill’s random access ways. Around every corner there seems to be a staircase that only squirrels or cats knew about until that racy "mature" rag Sunset Magazine exposed the phenomenon. more ›

Toddler Escapee Found Resisting Early Bedtime

Seattle police officers Friday night responded to a call of a young child wandering the streets in Queen Anne around 9 p.m. The SPD Blotter reports the police officers-turned-babysitters found the lively and rambunctious three-year-old boy at 9th West and West Galer, sporting a blue sweatshirt, pants, a diaper (we hope clean vs. dirty), and wool socks. more ›

To Market, To Market

To Market, To Market

A revamped, community-sponsored Queen Anne Farmers Market opens this afternoon at three at the corner of Queen Anne North and Crockett, replacing an earlier enterprise that had become mired in politics and recrimination. Patty Spahr, its director, has assembled a cast of local farmers and food vendors (Skillet, Sorrentino's, Secret Stash) despite hefty obstacles (street use, parking, health inspections, etc.). more ›

Can't Miss It: Weekend Edition May 29-31

CRAWLING ZOMBIES : It's going to be quite a cryptic brain-eating kind of Friday night in Capitol Hill, as the army of zombies plan to take over the neighborhood for the Crypticon Zombie Crawl. The costumes of the gruesome group of undead are sure to turn (or spin) a few heads. The local zombie dwellers plan to gather in front of Metro Clothing Co. dressed to kill for brains as well as tickets to Crypticon's horror convention. Now if you encounter a zombie, head to high altitudes or a bar, we've heard that alcohol preserves rotting flesh. 5:00 p.m., Friday // Meet at Metro Clothing Co., 231 Broadway E // Dress to kill and pay as you go more ›

The third week of the month is rapidly approaching, and that means Seattlest Happy Hour! This month our merry band of travelling blogger vagabonds makes it all the way to the wilds of Lower Queen Anne. We're hitting up Solo, located at 200 Roy St (right by Seattle Center), for their all-day happy hour: $1 off all beers and wines, $2 Rainiers, $3 wells, $4 sangria, $5 vittles, and, we can only assume, $6 blowjobs. Join us from 5-8 p.m. for food, folks, and fun, as well as other outdated taglines. more ›
