We like Seattle too. Though with a brother in Salem, we like Oregon as well. Capitol Hill is our most colorful, entertaining & dramatic neighborhood for sure. But there are other wonderful neighborhoods as well.

That water tower is impressive & built during the Olmstead era. You do have yr bearings & directions right.

The Cafe only opened last Nov. so prob. wasn’t there then. It was called Cafe Europa in its past life but much diff. than what’s there now.

Last time I was in Seattle, about a year ago, I finally visited Volunteer Park with a couple friends. I’ve visited Seattle I think 5 times in my life (not a lot for an Oregonian), but I hadn’t made it up there to the Park before. Man, it’s nice up there. I walked up to the top of that tower where you have a great view of the Lake to the East and the downtown to the West and South (I think I have my bearings correct there). I don’t know or can’t remember if I noticed the cafe you’re talking about. I may not have been in that area. Seattle’s a great city. I like the Capitol Hill neighborhood the best.

I’ll have to check it out my next trip to Seattle (not sure when that is going to happen - I have very limited paid vacation and we are going to Vermont this summer for a wedding - plus my sister who lives in Seattle is getting married in Indiana this summer as well…)

If you ever make it to Chiacgo - we’ll head to Devon Avenue - there are so many good Indian places there you’d definitely get your fill!
