Seattle's Pike Place Market turns 100!
We've got a number of friends coming to spend some time with us this summer -- it should be a good one, with Seattle's Pike Place Market officially passing the century mark. Events are planned from June 2 through Aug 17 -- the Market is one of those tourist destinations that even locals love going to -- I miss the days when I worked a block away from the market. That afforded the opportunity to wander on days where things weren't going so well, or when you just wanted to sneak away for an eclectic little lunch. That reminds me... Matt's in the Market should be re-opened soon -- you absolutely must have a meal/experience with Matt's when you're in town... such a wonderful little spot!

We should all celebrate the Market. It is as much a part of our downtown life as it is a tourist destination. The vendors take care of locals. It's good. And Matt's is the best. When I arrived at the same downtown office building you refer to, it was the first place I had lunch. To this day, it's still our favorite. But don't tell anyone.
Funny, Bruce -- Matt's is where where I had my first interview lunch, with wonderful Lisa Lewis... I knew Seattle was for me from that moment forward!
