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.

A Visit to Shug's Soda Fountain and Ice Cream

If you're searching for a new spot to grab some ice cream to beat the heat, Shug's Soda Fountain and Ice Cream just steps away from Pike Place Market will hit the spot.  Not only will it cool you down but it will satisfy. We tried the Dixie Split and let me tell you, that was some caramel sauce.  It wasn't your typical mass produced sauce you might find at 31 flavors.  But a homemade, thick, rich, buttery, you name it, sauce.  And the vanilla ice cream was so high quality that I'm not surprised by the price of the $9 Sundae.  Because, baby, you're worth it.  And I haven't even got to the bruleed bananas and the caramel coated walnuts.  Every bite was worth the calories but you better eat it fast, before it melts.  There was even a cherry on top.  How sweet is that?
