Heading to Seattle

[Sweet_Leaf_PDX]

+1 to the "Salumi" and "The Whale and the Carpenter" recommendations. Salumi does have weird hours, last time I checked they were only open for lunch during the week.

Definitely check out Pike Place Market. There are tons of cool places to get food and snacks there. Some of my favorites are: Piroshky Piroshky Bakery, Mee Sum Pastry - I like the BBQ Pork Hum Bao, Pike Place Chowder - Good clam and seafood chowder, Bleechers Cheese - Mac'n'Cheese or a Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Seatown Seabar is close to the Market, but not in it - great breakfast sandwich called the "three little pigs"

I'm not sure about cigar lounges in the area. I'd be curious to find out if there are any good ones because I go up there from time to time and it would be nice to have a solid spot to hang out and smoke.
