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.

Lunch at Pizza A'fetta in Cannon Beach

Pizza A'fetta is a small and charming pizza place located in downtown Cannon Beach. We loved the server who was super friendly and accommodating to us and our little ones.  He even offered to take a family photo of the four of us huddled around our pizza.  They seem to take pride in their restaurant, stating how long they've been opened, twenty five years, and that their on a top fifty list for best pizzas in the nation.  The pizza hit the spot.  Hot and fresh with large pieces of pepperoni and a nice thin quality to the crust.  Next time I visit Cannon Beach I'd probably stop back in for more pizza.
