Chateau Ste. Michelle Winery · Woodinville
Washington's oldest winery anchors Woodinville's wine district with a historic chateau and grounds. The inexpensive dry Riesling is widely considered one of the great values in American wine, and the estate remains the region's marquee tasting stop.
Family Donut Shop · Northgate
Inexpensive, exemplary donuts in Northgate glazed with actual bits of blueberry, orange zest, or raspberry puree, plus buttermilk bars that hold their own against the fruit glazed rounds. Weekend regulars know to show up before 10am or the case is empty.
Toulouse Petit Kitchen & Lounge · Lower Queen Anne
A Bourbon Street styled brasserie in Lower Queen Anne serving Creole and French Quarter dishes alongside prime steaks and one of the larger cold kitchen menus in the country. The lagniappe rib eye and inexpensive breakfast specials keep regulars coming back through the daily happy hours.
