Right in the heart of Madison Park, Seattle, next to the sprawling Washington Arboretum, is a hidden gem, Arosa Cafe. The cafe was founded in the early 90s by a European gentleman who named it after the scenic alpine village of Arosa in Switzerland. However, for the past eight years, Arosa Cafe has been owned and run by Cesar and Adriana Santangelo, a super foodie couple who moved from Venezuela to Seattle in 2003. They are genuinely passionate about creating connections, good food, and community, and it comes through very vividly at the cafe.
The ice cream scene in Seattle is a serious business, with the coming of several brilliant homegrown brands bringing their style and unique flavors to the table. Plus, they are handcrafted to perfection, use fewer artificial ingredients, and are delicious. Seattle has a plethora of homegrown brands, four located in Capitol Hill. Therefore, we decided to go on a DIY Ice Cream in Capitol Hill, which you can do too.
Meenakshi and I are new to the world of spirits (whiskey, scotch, vodka, gin, etc.) and being the adventurous experimenters that we are, we decided to fix that. Going to tastings is the best way to learn about unexplored food and drink, and one sunny Seattle afternoon, we found ourselves in the beautiful Copperworks Distillery in downtown Seattle.
I’m a fan of Tibetan cuisine and visited Majnu ka Tila in Delhi to satisfy my cravings. However, finding a Tibetan restaurant in the US was a challenge.
Meenakshi and I love learning about various cultures. One of the best ways of doing that is through food. Therefore, last weekend, we decided to hit up a popular Mexican restaurant in Redmond.
Capitol Hill is home to some of the trendiest and most interesting restaurants in Seattle and in June 2020, the neighborhood welcomed ‘Biang Biang Noodles’, a delightful and spacious restaurant dishing up freshly made Xi’an style hand pulled noodles.
