Happy Hour and Dessert in Capitol Hill

  Happy Hour Street Tacos with Carne Asada and a Miami Vice from Poquitos.  Poquitos is located in Capitol Hill and they're serving up authentic Mexican cuisine and cocktails. Their happy hour deal is a good one- during Ocho hour, everything on the happy hour menu is just $8! I went with a Miami Vice, a classic Pina Colada with Strawberry. This blended cocktail was so fruity and delicious. To eat I had two Carne Asada Street Tacos and a Birria Poquitos Burrito. The Burrito was small and served with a side of Consommé sauce.

A visit to 3.14 Bakery

Did somebody say Cake Balls?  Yum! I was reading about a bakery in White Center that carried Cake Balls so I figured I'd go check it out and do a taste test.  3.14 Bakery is the place for pie, cookies and all kinds of homemade desserts.  I thought the name 3.14 was pretty original for a pie place. 

I got a chocolate, a lemon and a red velvet one and they were very sweet and very delicious.  Luckily my hubby was with me so he helped, otherwise they would've been too rich.  They went well with his americano coffee.  Cake balls are just like Cake Pops but without the stick.  My favorite one was the lemon.  Supposedly, these are pretty popular and they recently had a Groupon, which of course I missed out on.  But for only $1.50 each, I didn't mind paying full price. 



A Chocolate Cake Ball from the 3.14 Bakery.  It tasted just as rich and moist as it looks. 


The Lemon Cake Ball which was very sweet and flavorful.  The perfect dessert for after lunch. 


The Red Velvet Cake Ball.  Wow, all that icing on the outside and the rich filling was a lot to handle.  But what a treat!

Their regular fruit pies looked delicious, too!
