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.

A Visit to Semicolon Cafe in Bellevue

 

A Bulgogi Beef Sandwich from Semicolon Cafe. 


Being that my camera usually eats first, I love visiting aesthetic cafes and restaurants. At Semicolon Cafe in downtown Bellevue, you'll find just that. But not only do they have a space perfect for Instagram, the big draw is the food and coffee. Grab one of the unique and mouthwatering brioche sandwiches with egg and bulgogi beef, or ham, mushroom, or chicken. They also have sandwiches with bacon, or avocado, and even ones with smoked salmon. 

I had already had lunch, so I went with one of their specialty coffees. I selected the Tiramisu Latte and it tasted as delicious as you may imagine. It was a pretty strong espresso drink and gave me a good caffeine buzz. The coffee tasted rich and sweet, and I took my time sipping it. My husband wanted to try one of the sandwiches, so he ordered one with bulgogi beef. Bulgogi Beef is a Korean style of beef which is thinly sliced. His sandwich had scrambled egg with grilled corn, lettuce, beef, tomatoes, and bulgogi sauce on a brioche bun. It was a pretty nice sized sandwich and filled him up. He really enjoyed the sandwich and loved the flavor of the beef. 

They have plenty of seating and even a cool view of the downtown Bellevue skyscrapers. Check this spot out for delicious brioche sandwiches and strong espresso drinks!
