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 the Asean Street Food Hall at Westlake Center

 

Chicken Wings from Hi Fry inside the new Asean Street Food Hall in downtown Seattle. 


Westlake Center just got a brand new food hall. Named Asean Street Food Hall, they have cuisine from Southeast Asia. ASEAN stands for the Association of Southeast Asian Nations. The food hall has food from Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Philippines, Indonesia, Myanmar, Laos, and Cambodia. They serve street eats food cart style. When you enter, you have the option of either ordering at a kiosk or going up to the food carts and ordering there. They have a lot of savory options and several sweet options as well. See the link above for their website and more info. 

We ordered at the kiosk screen and then waited at a table until they called our name. We ordered some Chicken Pho from Phancy Pho, and my son got Chicken Wings from Hi Fry. The food is really pricey. One bowl of Pho, Vietnamese Noodle Soup, is $18. The wings were $16, which is a lot for wings. 

Our food was good. Not $18 good, but it did the job. The chicken was nice and tender and juicy. They had all of the sauces available you'd want with your Pho. The space itself was neat and a nice addition to Westlake Center. The dessert spots like Sweet Moon looked really good and I may have to come back and try it. They have Croffles, Honey Toast, and Parfaits. 

I wouldn't recommend dining here because of the high prices for what you get. Maybe just walk through, check out the area, and get a dessert!
