Ballard

After Pike Place, we headed out to the Ballard area to meet my friend Liz, whom I met in Laos back in 2017. Liz is the Executive Chef at Manolin and Rupee Bar. A rising star in the Seattle dining scene, she is a semifinalist for this year's James Beard awards.

At Manolin, Liz prepared some amazing fare for us. The highlight of the meal was a crispy black rice dish. The ceviche and oysters were also really good. After this early dinner, we headed back down to Federal Way for Jeff to continue his meet duties. We encountered hail on the drive south.
