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. Both food items were tasty and satisfying.  My husband also had some Street Tacos and a Margarita from the happy hour menu. My sons had a Cheese Quesadilla and beans and rice.

Dinner at Tutta Bella in Crossroads

Tutta Bella is one of my favorite pizza spots in the Seattle area.  Our usual haunt is the Columbia City location and we love the authentic Neapolitan style pizza and the strong cocktails.  Their happy hour is amazing with seven dollar pizzas we always gobble up.   For this visit, we ate at the new Crossroads location on the eastside.  We were celebrating our boys birthday by going to Wiggleworks in the same complex and I was happy to see a Tutta Bella there.  So we started with the
Bietole Marinate-roasted beets, red onion, pistachio, chevre and red wine vinaigrette.  Our boys like goat cheese so they nibbled on that while my husband and I ate the rest of the salad.  It paired well with our cocktails, the Castra Nicia- buffalo trace bourbon, averna amaro, aperol, lime juice, angostura bitters and soda.  We like this drink and order it every time.  Then it was time for pizza.  We had happy hour personal pizzas- the Margharita which has pomodoro, fresh mozzarella, extra virgin olive oil and basil.  Then the Tutta Bella pizza- pomodoro, fresh mozzarella, isernio's italian sausage, mushroom, onion, basil.  My sons shared the Quattro Formaggi.  It has extra virgin olive oil, fresh mozzarella, provola, gorgonzola, slivered garlic and oregano.
