...bite

Just got back from the Bite of Seattle, which was overall pretty cool. Today was absolutely beautiful, and there were tons of people at the Seattle Center with all the booths and entertainment.

I drove over with Ben, and we split a fair number of foods before he went to work at his booth, in a really pretty little side area. You could pay $9 to run through the line and grab a sample from each of the stands:

I basically just ate things for the afternoon, and my favorite choice was “Dungeness crab Monte Cristo,” which was essentially a Monte Cristo sandwich with crab instead of ham…quite delicious. I also had two slices of pizza, a beef bratwurst, beet stew thing, and strawberry shortcake.

I also met up with my friends Jeff and Brian, who pretty much ate exactly the same thing I did:

…and got to see The Caesars, probably most well known for their hit Jerk it Out, and they were pretty solid live.

One other thing that was really cool was this guy who had a parrot, and I he had his bird spread out the wings…I don’t know, I’ve always found birds really neat. I got a picture of that, too:

I’ve uploaded the rest of my pictures to FlickR, so you’ll see them showing up on the sidebar, or go ahead and browse them over there if you want.
