Lots of used book stores make me sneeze. Not so at this clean and well tended used book store. They also have a generous credit program (dollar for dollar on used books) that can't be beat. My college age daughter loves this store.

This is absolutely the best Mexican Food I've ever had in Seattle, second only to a small family place I ate at in Mexico City in 1976.
It's noisy and really crowded and you may have to sit next to a stranger if you're really hungry, but it is worth it. The Tamales de Mole' Negro are wonderful. Reasonable prices help. Get there early and leave your typical mexican meal experience at home.

My 16 year old daughter wanted her hair done for a school dance. The talented young woman who cuts her hair on a quarterly basis wanted to charge her $50. I couldn't see her spending her cash or mine (go ahead, call me cheap but, this was not wedding!) for this event. For $12 plus tip (cost is $12/hour) she had her hair curled and crimped, pinned up with 40 different bobby pins, sprayed with Aveda products andthe result was a really cute little up do.
This is not your beauty school for the shampoo and set crowd. The facility is clean, smart and the students look hip in their basic black. The staff was very friendly and the student who did my daughter's hair really worked hard.
Everyone was happy, especially my pocket book.

Quick and fast sushi in downtown Seattle... is it possible? I've been to Sushi Kudasai on 4th Avenue (same complex as Borders Books) several times for lunch in the last few weeks. They are basically fast food, but wait... the sushi rice is still slightly warm, the fish, vegetable and seawood are pretty darn decent. It's better then Rice-n-Roll and much better than the pre-made take out from Uwajimaya. You don't know how happy this makes me!

Fuji Sushi in the International District is off of most people's radar screen. My teenagers and husband like it for their bento dinner special which is a great value. I think their sushi is excellent. Large Japanese clientele. Nice people, nice atmosphere for a family sushi place. Good prices.

Verite Coffee and Cupcake Royale have opened a second location in Ballard. Good coffee, cupcakes with that real buttercream frosting and wireless internet, I'm happy!

Herkimer Coffee is the kind of place you want to spend your money at because the owners work hard to make it a good experience for you. The coffee is excellent (and I love the "art of the pour"), the pastries tasty and the donuts are Top Pot. Wireless internet and a changing array of interesting art on the walls top it all off.

Vegetable potstickers, sauted pea vines, hand shaved barley noodles, high protein brown fried rice... these are just a few of the items on their menu. Food is tasty and well prepared.
