Babirusa Seattle
sum up: The little sister to Blind Pig Bistro is big-time tasty. With fewer dishes than the number of fingers on your hand, Chef Charles Walpole proves that less can be more. Think bar snacks on culinary crack; food as hip and vibrant as graffiti with the technique of fine art. Named after a breed of pig, Babirusa is a rare oasis in Eastlake’s dining desert.

sum up: In Montreal, everyone is a Canadiens fan, but the city is divided about who makes the best smoked meat. Me, I'm a Snowdon Deli girl. In terms of fame, Snowdon Deli is the single A team to the major league Schwartz's (which was recently bought by Celine Dion). Yet, when talking quality and the charm of a family-run deli, Snowdon wins the smoked meat championships hands down. Plus, Snowdon Deli brims with Jewish classics, especially the transcendent, chopped chicken liver.

sum up: Straight outta Thailand, Chef Kris Yenbamroong's second Night+Market (song=two) brings his funky, fresh fare to the Eastside. Eclectic and fun, this Silver Lake spot suits Yenbamroong's food better than the OG Sunset Strip locale. Song is all about full-body spice, where your eyes water, your nose runs, and your skin sweats. Forget the master cleanse; Song rids your body of toxins while filling your belly with bomb-ass grub.

sum up: A pastaria by the beach mixing Old World technique with New World style. Come for the extraordinary pasta, stay for the housemade charcuterie and produce-driven dishes. Thanks to Chef Jason Neroni's culinary chops, this neighborhood joint is jumpin' jumpin'.
looks: Sun-soaked by day, candlelit by night, the award-winning interior is cool without being cold, thanks to an open-kitchen, communal tables, and Mexican blankets to keep you warm on chilly nights. Nab a seat on the patio to watch Venice skate and strut by.
