If you're OK with conveyor-belt sushi, then you should definitely try aa Sushi, a new sushi joint that opened in Kirkland a few months ago (I'm guessing sometime late 2006). The sushi is as good as another conveyor-belt sushi restaurant I've been to, but aa Sushi has a little more variety (hence a higher rating). And waiting very long for a table has never been an issue. We are never disappointed with our meal.

Sushiland was the first "conveyor-belt sushi" I had ever had and I must admit, I wasn't disappointed. I am by no means a sushi snob so I can't *really* tell the difference between one really good maki sushi and another. Sushiland sushi is as other tasty sushi out there. There isn't a lot of variety or fancy rolls. This is a great place of a cheap lunch or dinner but the wait might take a while. I think the longest wait I had was about 50 minutes (on a weekend night).

The Thai food at Typhoon is absolutely scrumptious, no matter what dish you get. I've gone there for dinner with a handful of people and we all ordered a dish to try. In total, there were about six dishes and every single dish was extremely tasty (though I'm not a fan of spicy foods). The restaurant is clean and nicely decorated. It is also quite small with a very small waiting area. My co-worker and I recently had lunch there and I paid $15 for my meal (for one dish, water, tax, and tip) which isn't too bad for a restaurant.

I've been a fan of CPK for years! Pizza is my ultimate favorite food and CPK ranks in my top five. All of the appetizers I tried were extremely delicious. Of the salads they serve, my favorite is the Chinese Chicken salad (a half order is more than just one meal for me). My husband tried one of the penne pasta dishes and that was very scrumptious as well. I usually stick with my two reliable pizzas: the wild mushroom pizza or the shrimp scampi pizza. I'm not a big fan of the thin crust pizzas, though my husband tried the Milan pizza and it was very good (yum on the mushrooms!).
The wait at the Bellevue restaurant could be pretty long (we once waited 40 minutes for a table). The service is OK. It's the food keeps me coming back.

I'm giving Sunny Side five stars because their chocolate custard pie is the best I have ever had. Well... ok, so I've never seen this particular pie at another restaurant or bakery, but still! I grew up craving this pie and whenever I come back home to visit, my mom always has the pie waiting in the fridge (gotta love my mom!). Other than the pies (which, by the way, you should call to reserve a chocolate custard if you're wanting one), the restaurant also serves other plate lunches. I also like their fried rice. Mmmm... wish I had a piece of that darned pie now!

We came across the Red Snapper from coupon in the Entertainment Book (I'm very frugal). The restaurant offers great seafood dishes at very reasonable prices. Sure, it's a hole in the wall and somewhere we would have never tried, but after the first visit, my husband and I became regulars. This was our favorite restaurant in Atlanta because every single dish we tried was fantastic (we made it a point to get something different at each visit). We really felt like we got a great value. The restaurant decor isn't fancy however, it does feel quite cozy. The wait staff is extremely friendly and they actually engage in conversation (though they're not a bit intrusive).
The Red Snapper is definitely worth a shot. And with its prices, there really isn't anything to lose.

The ProClub is the best gym of which I've ever been a member. To say it is large is an understatement. The gym attempts to accommodate every workout habit so there are numerous workout rooms with tons of machines (weights and cardio). There are rooms for women only and three co-ed workout rooms: one that's fully lighted, another that is partially lighted, and another that's pretty dark. There's a room full of free weights and some machines and there are courts galore: basketball, tennis, and raquetball. I like the dark room because while I'm doing my dreadful cardio, I like to escape in my thoughts.
There is a wide variety of group classes - free and paid. I enjoy the spinning and cardio kickboxing classes. There are even classes for children and teens.
The locker rooms are all very clean and has lots of showers though locker space could be scarce if you arrive during the peak after-work hours. There are three hot tubs; a sauna; and a steam room. And the women's locker is right near the Spa.
The biggest downside is the cost, which is understandable since the gym has so much to offer. If it weren't for my employer, I would not be a member of the ProClub because it's sooo expensive. Don't get me wrong, the club is fabulous but I don't utilize all of its services to validate the high monthly cost.

We've been lucky at Racha Thai and haven't ordered anything that wasn't delicious. As other reviewers mentioned, there's a coupon that makes eating here a great value. I especially like the beef fried rice and yellow curry. The service and restaurant ambiance are just "OK."

We worked with Trevor for our home loan and I must say that he made us feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. He is very soft spoken and an absolutely nice guy. Trevor took as much time as was needed in order for us to understand every single step of the financial process.
His assistant Katie was very diligent in her work and follow ups. My husband's credit report was messy due to him and his brother having similar names and SSNs. Katie helped clean up the mess.
I probably won't need Trevor's services again, but I really hope to send lots of business his way. We were very, very pleased.

Bellevue Mall is great for high end shops and window shopping. Great stores (I really like LUSH) but there isn't a food court so your fast dining choices are limited. I don't like how the mall is laid out because it feels like there's no particular flow to it. I recommend using the 4th Street exit as there is usually less traffic on it around the holiday season. And there is a lot of parking in three garages.
