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...

Lunch at Golden Roosters in Pioneer Square

 

Korean BBQ Wings and Onion Rings from Golden Roosters in Pioneer Square in Seattle. 


If you're looking for a sports bar in Pioneer Square where you can enjoy some tasty Korean eats, look no further than Golden Roosters. The front of the space is all ages and has lots of seating. It appears to be quick-serve and the bar is in the back. Golden Roosters is sports-themed and tennis balls line the hallway to the bar. There's also a cool Super Sonics logo on the floor, which I didn't get a shot of. 

Their menu features several wings options, ranging from traditional to Korean BBQ, or KBBQ, which has a mild sauce and crispy coating. There are also sides like fries and Onion Rings, but if you want to try something new, you can order Bulgogi Cream Udon and Corn Cheese. We went with nine KBBQ wings and onion rings. The wings hit the spot. They were fried perfectly, juicy, and were well flavored. 

Along with a full bar, there's two slushy options, and you can add liquor to each one. There's a Blue Raspberry and Margarita one. I like how they were Sounders and Seahawks colors. I ordered the green one, the Margarita, and the bartender added Vodka. My husband ordered a Blue Long Island Iced Tea. This cocktail was strong and tasted delicious, too. 

This would be a fun spot to grab some wings and drinks before a game in Seattle! Golden Roosters opened a couple of months ago and seem to be a solid addition to the area. After we ate, we walked around for a minute to take some photos. There was an interesting and colorful mural on Yesler Way. Right across the street along Western Ave are the iconic ivy-covered buildings that make the neighborhood pop.
