Fortunately, Yum Brands is on it to change the logo.
And he announced it with a Cronut.
We live in the world of "egotarian cuisine," or, as Andrew Zimmern recently put it, "the age where no one is allowed to criticize the best chefs and restaurants in the world." Fair enough, we thought. Surely the best restaurants in the world can't be perfect, right? Right? So, in order to give some really fair and balanced views of the world's best restaurants, we turned to the ever-reliable, ever-crazy customers unafraid to air their true opinions of a joint: Yelp. In a new series, we're digging through some of the most renowned restaurants' Yelp feedback to paint an accurate picture of what you're really getting for your dollar. As we suspected, Yelpers are hilariously jaded, bringing down the so-called best of the best.
While Richard Blais landed a sweet gig judging on this next Boston season of Top Chef, he landed yet another TV gig -- this time on the infamous Food Network. Could Blais, already the master of celebrity chefness (you've hit it big when you shill cat food, we guess?) give the Food Network a winning show?

Unconditional and Conditional Distributional Models for the Nikkei Index
AbstractWe investigate alternative unconditional and conditional distributional models for the returns on Japan's Nikkei 225 stock market index. Among them is the recently introduced class of ARMA-GARCH models driven by α-stable (or stable Paretian) distributed innovations, designed to capture the observed serial dependence, conditional heteroskedasticity and fat-tailedness present in the return data. Of the eight entertained distributions, the partially asymmetric Weibull, Student's t and asymmetric α-stable present themselses as the most viable candidates in terms of overall fit. However, the tails of the sample distribution are approximated best by the asymmetric α-stable distribution. Good tail approximations are particularly important for risk assessments.

EAU CLAIRE, Wis., (UPI) — The anonymous artist responsible for a sculpture of the Loch Ness monster in Wisconsin's Chippewa River said it was removed to prevent it from being damaged.
The artist, using the pseudonym "The Phoenix," sent an e-mail to the Eau Claire Leader-Telegram explaining the "Nessie" sculpture was voluntarily removed by the artist Thursday after a concrete section forming the body fell over due to rising water levels, the newspaper reported Tuesday.
The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources had made a public appeal last week for the sculpture, which first appeared in late April, to be removed by the artist because it was an illegal obstruction in the river.
The artist said Nessie is being stored until a new permanent home can be found.

The company that runs Chicago's parking meters says the city owes them a lot of money.
Chicago Parking Meters LLC says it's lost $61 million in revenue because city hall has taken meters out of service and has forced them to provide free disability parking. City hall says that's far from the truth.
The Sun-Times obtained documents from city officials claiming to have found more than $22 million in errors in that report.
This is the latest in a series of disputes between city hall and Chicago Parking Meters.
Independent arbitrators are meeting with both sides to determine how much the city must pay.

We lit up the world, says Seb Coe
Aug 13 2012
Seb Coe hailed the London 2012 Olympics a big success and said thank you during the nation's final farewell to the Games.
Speaking with great pride during the closing ceremony at the Olympic Stadium in Stratford, east London, he said: "On the first day of these Games I said we were determined to do it right. I said that these Games would see the best of us.
"On this last day I can conclude with these words: "When our time came - Britain we did it right. Thank you!"
The London 2012 chairman, himself a two-time Olympic 1500m champion, recognised the athletes for their world-beating performances, but spoke movingly of how Britain had backed the Games. Lord Coe said: "Today sees the closing of a wonderful Games in a wonderful city. We lit the flame and lit up the world."
The success can be traced back to the people who built the stadiums and the Olympic Park from where was speaking that was once a disused and deprived district through to the organisers and the sports stars who put on a great show.
He told the packed crowd: "And thank you to the people of this country. The British people got behind London's bid and they got behind London's Games. Our opening ceremony proclaimed that these would be a Games for everyone. At our closing ceremony, we can say that these were a Games by everyone. London 2012 has played host to some incredible sport. To awe inspiring feats, that are the result of incredible dedication and skill by the world's great sports men and women.

Living costs
In addition to paying your tuition fees you will also need to consider how you are going to meet your living costs while you are studying. Funds will be required to cover the costs of your accommodation, food and travel as well as other costs associated with your studies, such as books, and everyday life, such as clothes and entertainment.
Estimates of how much money you will need may vary considerably, as the lifestyles and circumstances of individual students differ. For a single, graduate student studying for a calendar year, an estimated average would be in the region of £322 per week. This should be considered only as a guide; some students may find they can live within this allowance, yet others may find it insufficient to meet their expectations.
As a guide, the cost per week of your main items of expenditure is likely to be around:
- £145 for accommodation (average)
- £50 for food
- £8.10 for household goods
- £86 for leisure and personal items
- £21.20 for travel*
- £10 for books/equipment
- £1.66 for insurance.
Students who have a dependent spouse and/or children will require a significantly greater amount. All students should be aware that they will incur initial expenses such as a deposit for accommodation and the purchase of books. Some international students may also need to buy clothing for the British climate.
An indication of the costs associated with studying for a graduate programme at UCL is given below.

May require more editing but for now, this is generating decent results!
New structure:
1. (action) (preposition) (location) (conjunction) (second action) (second preposition) (second location)
with possible alternative:
2. (action) (preposition) (location)
—instead of having the prepositions after the verb, generate its own for phrase clarity
—Possibly include a code that generates both structures at random; with Structure 1 being more common than structure 2 if possible.
—no parenthesis!
—leave the actions up for ambiguity
[edit] grouped the prepositions to specific locations for more sentence stability.

**Nothing is concrete and you can change up whatever you want of course, if you like it better!
This is just to provide a general outline, possibly of something you haven't thought of before.
After all, it's also possible to get "1622"
1 sitting (on) (in)
6 and
2 standing (around) (in) (on)
2 closet (or storage area)
Obviously, you can't be sitting AND standing in a closet. This could be taken as: the character is kneeling in a storage closet, searching for something in a pile of junk that they just can't find!
This character placement generator is meant to be a resource for when you need to approach a character that has otherwise not been in use, but you have no idea where that character should be, or what they should be doing!
This will help you figure out exactly(?) what your character was up to while you were away.
Feel free to add/amend anything to this list.

Additional info since this game is new
-You do have to use every color in the "use these colors" section
>However these colors can be shades of the color, rather than the precise color, but it MUST be recognizable as that color.
>You are not LIMITED to these colors unless the judge specifies they would like it to be.
-the "subject" can be anything from a genre to a very specific type of creature to a broad type of creature. Examples include:
Horror, demon, steampunk, historical, vampire, dog, child, nature, nautical, hybrid (can specify animals), Greek monster, Japanese monster, (or just 'monster'), god/goddess, sunken/ruined city, whatever you can think of that can spawn a character!
>If you have trouble drawing animals or creatures, you are able to design a human based on the topic. If the topic is "monster", make a monster-hunter, or design their clothes with monsterous influence. Same thing can go with an animal, you could make a "gijinka", a zoomorph (human with animal sections like this), and really, creativity is key here!
I would really like to emphasize that this is NOT about art skill, it's about creativity. The first time I played this game, which was only yesterday when this was written (4/18/13), I have noticed people were choosing really… simple and uncreative designs merely because the artist put more detail in the artwork itself. It truly is up to the judge to decide, but this specific game is about the designs!
How to judge:
-Look at the use of the limited color palette to see if they used it efficiently
-Look at how they use the subject, the more creative uses deserve more credit. There are some really creative artists out there in iScribble with untapped ingenuity that deserve their chance to shine!
-More importantly, look at what designs appeal to you. If it looks like a character you might fawn over, then by golly maybe you should pick that one!
Judging is very much the same as other drawing games, you number the selections based on your favorite.
Next judgement can be passed on from 1 to 2 and if 2 passes to 3 and etc.
Well that is all I hope you enjoy the game! This is just to make sure everything is fully understood since the game is still relatively new.

Logan Hardware
Logan Hardware is a used record store with a little something extra in its back room: the Vintage Arcade Museum .
Logan Hardware is a used record store with a little something extra in its back room: the Vintage Arcade Museum .
This market, which styles itself on London's Portobello Market, has become quite the to-do in town.
Every Sunday morning hundreds of vendors set up stalls that sell everything from Jesus statues to 10 packs of tube socks to power tools.
The city likes to claim that the Magnificent Mile, or 'Mag Mile' as it's widely known, is one of the top five shopping streets in the world. It's a bit of a boast, because most of the retailers here are just high-end department stores and national chains that are available throughout the country.
Those seeking the perfect ironic, eccentric, limited-edition T-shirt will find it at Threadless. The company runs an ongoing T-shirt design competition on its website in which designers submit ideas and consumers cast votes (750,000 weekly). The company then releases the winning styles in limited quantities for two weeks.
This is not your mother's doll shop; it's an experience .
In a classic rags-to-riches story, Morrie Mages got his start in his family's store in the old Maxwell St Jewish ghetto, where some of the city's leading retailers launched their careers by selling clothes in the period between WWI and WWII.
Beautifully restored in the early 1990s, the Mart contains a modest collection of chain stores on its lower floors. But the real allure lies on the upper floors devoted to distributor showrooms for home furnishings and other interior fittings. As you prowl the halls, you can find next year's hot trends on display today.
This nonprofit group trawls local landfills and scrap yards for junked bikes, then brings them back to its warehouse and refurbishes them. Half get sold in the storefront shop; proceeds enable the group to ship the rest to developing countries.
Incense envelops you at the door, and you know right away you're in for a hippie treat. Mounds of worldly baubles rise up from the tables. African trade beads and Thai silver-dipped beads? Got 'em. Bright-hued stone beads, ceramic beads, glass beads? All present.
This isn't your grandma's knitting shop. Loopy Yarns caters mostly to students from the nearby Art Institute, so the books, patterns, needles, hooks and designer yarns are about as hip as they come.
The big orange sign out front will have you scratching your head, but do yourself a favor and step inside (don't worry, those 25 surveillance cameras pointed at you are harmless).

Nike Air Max 95 No-Sew – Dark Grey – Challenge Red | Available
October 31st, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | No comments
Can the Nike Air Max 95 No-Sew still manage to make noise in a world where it's gotta co-exist with the likes of the Nike Air Max 95 Tape? For what it's worth both of those models don't end up looking too terribly far from the OG build, especially since they don't go the route of so many previous Air Max re-issues of toying with the tooling on bottom. The new pair seen here combines dark grey and chilling red-letting the latter totally grip the sole kit. Get more Nike Air Max 95 No-Sew images with us below and then pick them up from Oneness.

Fort Collins Brewery- Rocky Mountain IPA: Nothing says India like Colorado
There are two campaigns in the emerging IPA arms race, one is the race to develop the perfect Hop Hand grenade, the other is the fight to develop the ultimate Bitter Bomb. When the Armageddon happens I am painting my face for the Hop Harbingers, which is very unfortunate for Fort Collins Brewery's Rocky Mountain IPA.
Let's get one thing straight; this is a beautiful beer. It is an awesome amber hue, with a clean foam and a strong, floral, almost sweet smell. So what is the down side? This brew is just too damn bitter. I love IPA's to death. However, too much bitterness is just a distraction. Anyone can brew an extremely bitter brew. To stand out in today's swelling beer market, your beer needs to have an undeniable uniqueness. Unfortunately this beer is just, unforgettably, forgettable.
I don't want to sound too harsh in my review. This is not a bad beer at all. There are many people who are going to love this beer and rightfully so. If you're a bitter IPA lover, check this out. I just didn't get what I was looking for from this experience.
Consumed: Globe Glass
Verdict: Buy A Six Pack

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My son is a 5th grade student at KIPP Intrepid. I love this school!! The teachers are very easy to contact in case you have an issue to address about your child. One of the main thing that impresses me about this school is the fact that even while making the kids face the consequences of their actions they still encourage the children in a positive way to do better. They also do not tolerate bullying at all. Again I love this school and what it is doing for my child.
My child went to this school for a year. The KIPP system itself was structured ,but when my child arrived at this campus it went down hill. This school would not even cal me if my child would get sick during the day. They mistreated my child on a daily basis. If you can apply for another Kipp campus , do that . This particular school is unorganized and unnecessary .
Do not matter how hard you work never get something nice for that, at the end you receive the same treat has children in bench. Another words you are punish for be a good student. Do a favor to your children look for other option.
This school is not as good as it pretends to be; some of the teachers are very rude and uncaring. Only concerned to maintain high test scores and good reviews, but uncaring toward the students. I think they abuse their authority....I suggest not to just look at reviews but look at the whole picture before sending your child there. You know your child better than anyone... his personality, his background. etc. Make sure it's a good fit for him. A successful life takes more than just education, but high self-esteem, happiness, etc. as well.
My daugher and I are both glad we transfered her to this school. She is challenged more both mentally and physically. Sure the school is more strict in all aspects but in these times we need to be more strict with our children. Parents and teachers work together (and thats the way it needs to be) to help our children have a better chance to be succesful in life.
This school is worried more about ratings than the kids. They treat the kids as if they were in military school. No desk the first week sitting on the floor. For the end of the year trip.. The principal arrives in her RV while the kids freeze in thier tents. !! that was unaffair. Why should she receive special treament, shouldnt she show the kids the same respect.

Eileen Heckart
Academy Awards
1972: Best Supporting Actress
Eileen Heckart as Mrs. Baker in Butterflies Are Free
- Jeannie Berlin as Lila in The Heartbreak Kid
- Geraldine Page as Gertrude in Pete 'N' Tillie
- Susan Tyrrell as Oma in Fat City
- Shelley Winters as Belle Rosen in The Poseidon Adventure
A sensitive character actress especially adept at playing anxious, emotionally complicated women, Heckart began her acting career Off-Broadway in 1942. She first gained wide recognition for creating the role of Rosemary Sidney, the middle-aged schoolteacher, in the 1953 Broadway production of Picnic. She continued to win acclaim for her supporting work on Broadway, notably in The Bad Seed (1954) and The Dark at the Top of the Stairs (1957). She made her film debut in 1956 in Miracle in the Rain and also appeared that year in the screen version of The Bad Seed, reprising her role as the grieving mother of a murdered boy and receiving her first Academy Award nomination. She first played her Oscar-winning role—that of Mrs. Baker, the possessive mother whose blind son falls in love with his offbeat neighbor—in the 1969 Broadway production of Butterflies Are Free; at that time she was nominated for a Tony Award.
Eileen Heckart, in full ANNA EILEEN HECKART (b. March 29, 1919, Columbus, Ohio, U.S.—d. Dec. 31, 2001, Norwalk, Conn.)

Back to the well I go. This is another shot I got the night of the super moon in June. I hiked up to Rattlesnake Ledge with my camera and tripod. It was a party when I got there. Like the scene before an outdoor concert in the park on a late Spring night. There was some good excitement in the air. Instead of a rock band though, the star we were all waiting for was the full moon.
While waiting for night to fall I periodically pointed my camera up towards Mount Si. Beyond Mount Si you can See Monroe and Carnation. I think the view from Rattlesnake Ledge is out of this world. I am going to post a set that I took from the Ledge looking towards the Cascades interior. The Cascade range is one of the most beautiful in the West. Perhaps not as grand as The Rockies, although with Rainer, St. Helens, Adams, and Hood, its hard to argue they're second.

- Food terribleOpenTable Diner Since 2010VIPDined on 9/30/2014Will never go back due to horrible food-- the salad was over dressed and poor quality Soup watery and zero flavor
- Too Noisy!!mek919VIPDined on 9/29/2014The high noise level was a significant detraction. We left right after eating a nice cheese plate and tasted wine from an excellent selection.Special Features:
- Perfect for Casual BachelorettenwfoodiemomDined on 9/27/2014We had a party of 7 this past Saturday night for a Bachelorette dinner. Not only did the waitstaff and sommelier do a great job serving our group in a timely and courteous manner, but they separated the bill 6 ways without even batting an eye (a rarity for a group our size, I've found) and took a group photo of us on the spiral staircase to capture the feel of the evening. Have been to Purple many times before with excellent service and cuisine, but this experience stood out in how seamless and pleasant it was for us. I highly recommend!Special Features:
- Great spot!WineTimeDined on 9/27/2014Purple Cafe in Downtown was wonderful. I went with my aunt who was visiting from out of town. Everything we ordered was delicious. Between the two of us, we had the crab cakes, salmon with curried corn and onions, and the scallops in oxtail ragout. The service was perfect. Our server was always at hand when needed and quite knowledgeable. She helped us pick a bottle of wine that paired well with both of our dishes. I would highly recommend Purple Cafe to anyone that loves good food and good wine.Special Features:
- Great spotOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/26/2014Was there with my wife and 2 and 9 years old kids. Great and tasty eclectic menu. Kids friendly (home made delicious Mac and Cheese and great real mozzarella with fresh basil kid pizza). Noisy but with kids, it's perfect :-) Not for a romantic get away but their food and wine list are a hit. The service is friendly and pro. I ordered a great Tuscan 2009 red wine (at $38 only, a steal :-) and they came and decanted it. It was great and needed to be decanted and I didn't need to ask for it. The ambiance is great and the decoration is just dramatic enough with the extra large bay windows, high ceiling and amazing central and circular wine cave. Take your time in looking at the wine card and may find a jewel like I did :-) Enjoy...Special Features:
- Great service and wine listHadleyDined on 9/25/2014We have gone here for lunch in the past and really liked the food, service and wine list, this visit left us a bit disappointed...great service and wine, and food was just okay...friend had the Lobster Mac and Cheese which lived up to the reputation...both my husband and I had the steak ...not the best cut or seasoning, fries were soggy...felt a bit disappointed in recommending this to our friend visiting from out of town...maybe just an off night in the kitchen.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food but...LouLouBelleVIPDined on 9/25/2014Our dining experience confirms all the previous positive reviews about this restaurant. The one caveat from my personal experience was the price vs the portion of the dish I ordered ( steak & frites ).The size of the steak was almost equal to the amount my husband had on his dinner salad, which one can has an option to add as a side for $6 extra. In other words, I was paying $19 for the fries by ordering an entree. Something's amiss---I could have ordered my own salad w/ steak & ordered a side of fries & I would have come out ahead food-wise . Other than that, the food is great & the service oustsanding.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GreatdanielleDined on 9/25/2014Enjoyed a lovely dinner before an event downtown. Wine was fantastic. Get the gargonzola dates to start. The handcut fries are really good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Nice for groupsOpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/24/2014We went to the Seattle location for a client dinner. They were impressed by the beautiful space, wine list and decor. Appetizers and most main dishes were good.Special Features:
- A Nice NightDrJoeDined on 9/24/2014I have frequently dined at Purple in Kirkland and Woodinville. This was my first visit to the Seattle site. THe night was all I expected. Fine food, superb service, and a window table combined for a relaxing and enjoyable evening. Nicely done!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent food, service. Vibrant.hillsdalefoodieVIPDined on 9/23/2014No real complaints for this place. Food and service are all excellent and the wine selection, as one might expect for a wine-focused venue, is very good. It's difficult to pick a bad glass of vino. As for the menu, it has some real gems, especially on the starters such as the crackers and the filo pastry encrusted brie. The venue itself has what is probably a 30' ceiling with a central bar with a truly impressive corkscrewed wine rack as its centerpiece. The atmosphere, especially in the evening is vibrant - loud even (accentuated by the polished concrete floors). So great for a semi-formal dinner, eating out with friends. Probably worth a pass if you're looking for a venue which is intimate or romantic.Special Features:
- Delightful Pre-Theater TreatOpenTable Diner Since 2003VIPDined on 9/23/2014We did the food with parings. In one case I thought another pairing might have been better and mentioned to the server, she went back and got a quarter glass of what I thought would go better and brought it out to try. The glass she brought wasn't exactly what I'd thought would work better, but it was close. Their pairing was better. I like service like that.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- GREAT FIND IN SEATTLElindafoodieDined on 9/22/2014My daughter recommended Purple Café to us and I was amazed at how much fun it was! The tower of wine bottles is most impressive, but the food and service was what we will remember. All of us had different entrees and they were all innovative and delicious. Our waiter made the evening a lot of fun with good wine recommendations and excellent service while not being overbearing. We will definitely be back!Special Features:
- Great findsonumomDined on 9/21/2014The service was not what we expected but it was still ok. The food was outstanding. The baked brie and Lamb Tagine were both delicious and incredibly flavorful. The wine pairings also were great. Each went well with our courses.Special Features:
- Only If you like Curry !!diana156VIPDined on 9/21/2014We order 3 different dishes and for my taste all the dishes had too much curry.. The pizza with sausage was the only one I could eat ! Great wine selection ..Special Features:
- Great place for dinner!pickybuthappydinnerDined on 9/21/2014Had a great meal at this place and our wait person was very much a pro. I highly recommend it. We had the lobster mac n cheese and the fish stew, both were great. Went with the special appetizer of locally sourced beets, blue cheese and walnut crumbles, wow, that was awesome. Finished with a cheese course, again, awesome...they pick your cheeses, do it with a nice chardonnay...very good. Most of the summer menu was locally sourced and we like that.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wine barTarynDined on 9/21/2014excellent food & wine with plenty of options for everyone to choose from.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Consistently excellent6ogmamaDined on 9/21/2014We dine here fairly often, usually before seeing a performance at the 5th Avenue. Both the food and the service can be counted on to be top notch. Try the grilled cauliflower!Special Features:
- Removed best appetizer off the menuFooodeeeeeeDined on 9/20/2014This was our 4th time going to this restaurant. The goats cheese and honey appetizer was our favorite. We were quite dissapointed that it had been removed from the menu. Why would you remove the best thing on your menu!! As well my partner ordered the lamb meat ball pasta and it had a weird taste to it. We will be trying somewhere different the next time we return to Seattle.Special Features:
- Wine, wine, and more wine!sonya211Dined on 9/20/2014Obviously wine is the star here. They list a pairing with almost every dish. Our sommelier was extremely knowledgable and helpful. My calamari appetizer was perfect, served with bread to dip up all the delicious juices. Salmon entrée was okay, the sauce was too sweet for my taste. Another highlight, chocolate salted caramels for dessert.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- VickDined on 9/20/2014We had an overall good experience, but found the restaurant a bit too dark, making it difficult to see everyone, or read menus easily. The food was good. The only steak returned was quickly replaced with another (different cut), that proved to be very good. Overall it was okay, but perhaps more for fun, lively bar scene than groups dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great adult food and wineOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/20/2014Great food and atmosphere that was surprisingly affordable. The only problem was trying to pick out the one meal you wanted from the list when they all looked so good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Service has steadily declinedOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/19/2014The servers tempo was way off; greeted early but asked for a few minutes; 10+ minutes later came back - we ordered drinks and first course with wine pairings. drinks came and then a few minutes later the apps came with pairings. there I was with a few sips of my Martini and apps with wine pairings???? give us a chance to finish our pre-dinner drinks!. We ordered our mains; well 3 of the 4 of us did. The server didn't take all 4 orders before darting away. Other service experiences, although not this bad, were also bad. friends who went hear also had bad service experiences.Special Features:
- Purple is the new blackmarvelousDined on 9/18/2014A must-eat when visiting Seattle. Great food, great wine, great environment!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Too noisyjremlapDined on 9/18/2014Generally a good place, great wine list but very loudSpecial Features:
- Great MenuVictorDined on 9/18/2014I've always loved the various items that they have on their menu. Starters were fantastic, with the baked brie being a favorite. The calamari preparation is so good compared to the deep fried option of most restaurants. The salmon, duck, and seafood (fish) stew were enjoyed by all. Only negative was that the waitress disappeared after the main courses arrived and then another server provided dessert menus and the bill. But the service started out well. Still one of my go to spots.Special Features:
- 5th Ave patronOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 9/17/2014Went to the Purple before the show and loved it! The menu and wine selection were exceptional and the service was entertaining and fast. They catered to our small group and we enjoyed a great dinner.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great menu, great foodladiesnightoutDined on 9/15/2014This place was busy even on a Monday night. Very creative decor using a spiral staircase in the middle of the room to access the wine cellar. We ordered lamb tagine and fig gorgonzola pizza for our main dishes and found both to be full of great flavors. I have had their chicken salad entree in the past and think it is absolutely one of the best chicken salads I have ever eaten. We'll definitely be going back again.Special Features:
- CT is fabulous!OpenTable Diner Since 2013Dined on 9/14/2014My sister and I have dined several times at Purple Cafe/Seattle before our 5th Ave show and are always very happy with the food and service. We especially enjoy CT, the sommelier, who is consistently a delight. He is helpful, funny, interesting and goes above and beyond.Special Features:
- Great findPurpleCafeDined on 9/14/2014We had not been to this restaurant until the evening of our night at the Benaroya Hall. It was a great experience. The food was very good and the service (Antonio) was the very best. We shared our experience with our friends and will visit this restaurant again, in the future.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food. Health hazard. Beware.Rg61soundfVIPDined on 9/13/2014Great food, creative menu, impressively extensive wine list. The service was impeccable. Up until the moment my wife almost broke her tooth against a metal nut (sic) that came with the salmon main course. The waiter summoned the person who appeared to be either a chef or a kitchen manager and who explained to us that the nut came off a certain part of their kitchen tool. The individual was 'kind' enough o take the cost of the salmon dish off the bill. Seriously??? The metal nut in our food well constituted at the very least a year of unlimited free dining. Stay away!
- Great for a dateFoodieDined on 9/13/2014Was impressed with the wine selection and how helpful CT the sommelier was. He helped us pair wine with our food. Would recommend the mussels and chocolate tarte.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- HairLuv2eatDined on 9/13/2014With the exception of the hair I found in my pork chop, my dining experience was good. I had a group of seven and everyone had a great time. The food was good, service fast and it was dark but funSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- licoriceDined on 9/13/2014We have never ever had a bad meal here. Our favorite is the baked brie!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- nightoutDined on 9/12/2014Excellent service. Attentive. Knew exactly when we needed to leave and gave us update on time. Extensive wine list. Delicious salad. Perfect for our girls night out.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always greathamckayDined on 9/12/2014It was a busy Friday night but they are common is our reservation of six easily. I am disappointed they have updated the menu with different salad choices but only because I love their apple walnut salad which is no longer on the menu. My girls had the cheese pizza which tasted a little bit like Indian food. It was good but not to our children's taste. They were nice enough to remove that from our bill. My husband and I had cupcakes and a wonderful filet and a chop salad. That strawberry shortcake dessert was amazing.Special Features:
- Delightful eveningmoongoddessVIPDined on 9/10/2014I love the ambiance of this restaurant: nice but casual, modern yet comfortable. This is my second visit and came with three friends. We each had a different wine flight and were all happy with our choices. A lot of diversity on this wine list. We had the special of the day, a halibut dish with a sauce of local vegetables with a bit of spice that was truly special. Tried the grilled cauliflower appetizer which was unique and quite good. We ended with the sea salt caramels, creme brûlée and the waitress brought us a delightful port because she said we just needed it with the caramels. We were speechless and in bliss with our caramels and port. Truly divine and possibly the best caramel I have ever had.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for Winos and Foodies!MickyBDined on 9/10/2014We went for the wine list (any place with Jacquère, Rkatsiteli, Schiava, Teroldego, Liatiko and Vranec by the glass must be great, and the bottle choice is simply amazing) and the food also was great – almost impossible to choose what to have. I had an unusual calamari dish to start (with San Marzano tomatoes, Castelvetrano olives, chickpeas) that was delicious as was my wife's Gorgonzola stuffed dates. We both had the duck breast with Swiss chard and smoked shiitake mushrooms that was divine. I ordered mine medium rare and my wife's medium – and there was a difference! The place is large and was very busy on a Wednesday and the noise level was high – our only negative feeling, but not enough to spoil a wonderful food and wine evening.Special Features:
- Great Lunch SpotCaraDined on 9/10/2014Quick and friendly lunch service. The Gorgonzola and fig pizza is especially good.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wow!DhpeterDined on 9/8/2014Literally everything we had was delicious. We had two different wine flights, we started with the cauliflower and Brie. I Don't usually like cauliflower but it was delicious! The Brie was also fantastic. I had the seafood stew and it was also generously filled with plump shrimp and fish. My wife has the salmon and it was cooked to perfection. We passed on dessert because we were so full. No skimpy portions here! Can't wait to be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Really really tasty. I made it for my birthday BBQ and it was a big hit.
itravel Posted: 05/01/12
I love the Spanish cheese in this but the the mint really gives it the punch. Excellent side dish.
jepers Posted: 05/31/13
Where exactly do the cherries or grapes come into the picture?? I don't see them in the picture, and the only place they're mentioned in the recipe is in the list of ingredients. Would probably give it a higher rating if the list of ingredients matched the recipe, but trying to figure out which one is right is quite annoying.

Chickpeas, tomatoes and Manchego cheese...Great in any salad combo

A bump before bedtime!
What is the weight (if you happen to know)?

Actually looking for something as light as possible. The solid resin sidearm, plus the holster, weighs far too much IMHO...
... And bumppity bump!
will you consider trades?
Saturday bump!
