Must-Go Places in San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle
I just got back from a trip to Portland last week and let me HIGHLY recommend the Clyde Common recs on here, i had a fantastic meal there. The chicken entree was good, as was the pork belly app. For a good burger, check out slow bar.

Mad Manatee Beer from Bold City Brewery
Doesn't this kind of look like the Hitachino White Ale label?

@dhorst: Hehe, great name for a book; I'll have to check it out! (I love Dave Barry.)
@Adam: I WANT MANATEES TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD! In all their cute blubbery ness.
@MinhLikesFood: I didn't notice that at first but I guess if you replace the manatee with an owl..(squints)

i actually thought it was a new hitachino, too, when i glanced at it.

I highly recommend the Mexican food at Guaymas in Tiburon.

As a former Seattleite (Bainbridge Island, actually), I heartily agree with all the recommendations. We had an amazing meal at the Steelhead Diner last year. I also love Shanghai Garden in the International District. If you have a few hours, take the ferry to Bainbridge Island and have brunch/lunch at the Streamliner Diner, about 3 blocks from the ferry terminal. No matter how good or bad the weather is, the 35 minute ride is beautiful. Have a great visit!

Must-Go Places in San Francisco, Portland, and Seattle
I also looooove La Mediterranee. I frequent the location in Berkeley, but I know they have one in SF with a slightly different menu, and close and trusted friends who have visited both tell me that the one in SF is tastier.

I second the Cheeseboard in Berkeley... it really is amazing. And if you're in Berkeley, then I also suggest Brazil Cafe. As for SF, skip House of Nanking. As mentioned above, many of the sauces used taste the same.

SPICY TUNA ROLL - I swear I am addicted. I have to have a spicy tuny roll from one particular sushi spo every dayt. I crave it almost as soon as I get up ever day. Sick, huh!

My guilty pleasure is that I can't pass up a piece of cheescake. Any kind! Plain, fancy - as long as it is cheescake...new york style, any style - love it. Thanks for this opportunity!

I am a sweet freak with very little guilt, though every now and again I get sad for no reason. The other day I ate a spoon of Duncan Hines fudge frosting right out of the container. It was all delicious and trans fatty. Does that count?

Cheesecake.........ummmmmm!
Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 3: Pichet Ong's Guilty Pleasure Sweet
Sour-Patch Kids, Skittles, and other candies sold at movie theaters in large quantities, primarily to fourth-graders. I avoid making eye-contact as I make the purchase and then run off to the theater.
p.s. my girlfriend is dying for these tickets... please give them to me... please
Sweet Ticket Giveaway, Week 3: Pichet Ong's Guilty Pleasure Sweet
This is kind of embarassing, but we're supposed to be honest here right? Just to be clear, these are *guilty* pleasures...
1. Butterscotch Krimpets (eat them quickly so no one notices and then lick off any icing stuck to the plastic)
2. Real whipped cream straight...a little dash of vanilla, high peaks, and then into my mouth!
3. Swedish fish (wow...I don't think I've ever told anyone how I feel about swedish fish)
Desserts I would not mind being caught with and would like in front of me this instant:
Sprungli
warm chocolate chip cookies
hot fresh Krispy Kreme glazed donuts
mint chocolate chip ice cream
