Dining Recommendations

This is hands down THE best brunch and Southern food spot in Seattle. Fat's is located in the heart of Central District, a historically black neighborhood that's endured so much. It goes without saying that the chicken and waffles are incredible, but the shrimp and grits changed my life. If you want great food and good vibes, this is the place to go.

Before my career with the Space Needle I was a chef who was lucky enough to live and work in Italy as a pasta maker so I am a bit particular about my pasta.  Due' Cucina is the only place in Seattle I trust to make pasta for me.  They make the pasta by hand in view of the dining room and I wouldn't be surprised if someones Nonna was in the back keeping track of everything. Especially in summer I enjoy their burrata, a mozzarella stuffed with mozzarella curds and cream. Buon cibo!
