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. Everyone enjoyed their dinner. I first visited Poquitos in 2012, also for happy hour, and I remembered liking it then, too. It was time for a meal there again.  For dessert, we walked about ten minutes west to  Voodoo Doughnut . The Seattle location opened late last ye...

A Visit to ZZ Dessert for Souffle Pancakes and Boba Tea

 Hooray for Souffle Pancakes! Now we can finally get them in the Seattle area. I had these fluffy and jiggly pancakes before in Vancouver and I hadn't tried eaten them since. Luckily ZZ Dessert just opened in Kent's Great Wall Mall. They have boba tea drinks and Asian desserts. When I saw someone post about them on the good old IG, I added it to my list of places to try. So when I went to Ikea in Renton and my husband asked if I wanted anything at the Great Wall Mall, I remembered ZZ Desserts and off we went.

 I didn't realize the two places were so close. I didn't have my camera, so I used my phone for these shots. I took two videos which I posted on Instagram, so if you're not following me there, you should. You can follow me @kelliwongphotography and @uniquefoodiefinds.  

Luckily it wasn't busy so I was able to order right away. The girls said it would take twenty minutes for my Souffle Pancakes to make but they were done way sooner than that. I ordered the Cocoa Souffle Pancakes and to drink, a Peach Oolong Tea with Cheese Foam. Both items were boxed up to-go for me, but they allowed me to take some photos and videos at a table. Then I went home and plated my pancakes for another video and photo. 

The tea was nice and light. It was fruity and refreshing and had some jelly in it. The drink seemed to get better and better with each sip. Perfect for a hot day, too. My pancakes were so soft, like a cloud. This is a light dessert and they take skill to make right. Souffle Pancakes are made with egg whites and meringue. I love the texture of them and how you can choose from so many toppings. I enjoyed the cocoa topping. It was like a chocolate pudding and tasted really good. I also liked the chocolate wafer pieces on top. 

Everything was so good! If you've never tried this type of pancake before, I really recommend them. I'm happy that the Seattle area has them now to try!

  1. The finest combo of banana, chocolate, oatmeal, and walnuts can be found in this pancake recipe. We can add lemon and blueberries to it. The ideal nutritious weekend breakfast, these fluffy, healthy banana oatmeal pancakes with walnuts are naturally dairy- and gluten-free as well as naturally sweetened, making them suitable for babies and young children as well. Oats are incredibly healthy since they contain both soluble and insoluble fiber, as well as a little amount of plant protein. They also help you feel fuller longer than pancakes made just from wheat. The ideal option for you if you're looking for more wholesome pancake meals is Martabak Singapore.
