Et cetera, or should we say Eggcetera?

On our recent trip to Seattle we did more than go to

Snoqualmie Falls
Boeing Future of Flight
Olympic National Park
and watch "The curious case of Brads Buttocks".. sorry for the slip, "Benjamin Button"

We also managed to go spend a few hours at a place called Northbend inspite of bad roads and snow, eat at Mayuri Chat, Mayuri Restaurant, InChin's Indian Chinese fusion restaurant, breakfast at Eggcetera, visit the local Indian temple on Jan 1st and and and and and...

Yeah, we were busy!

Just to close out the Seattle trip posts

1. Mayuri Chat served me a spoilt samosa which was refried (probably a previous batch?) Thoroughly disappointed!

2. Mayuri restaurant served us really great food. Food that compares to some of the local desi restaurants in the Bay area.

3. Inchin's was amazing. I knew there was a good chance of an allergy attack that too on New Year's eve but took my chances and went there anyways with the rest of the gang. Their Seczchuan fried rice was amazing. (Did get an attack later that night and paid the price for tasting something that either had peanuts or sesame seeds on it and was a spoilsport at the card games that night..) Truly amazing food and fantastic service!

4. BIL decided to take us to Egg's cetera in Seattle instead of a long drive to Mother's Bistro in Portland (yes, on the last two Seattle trips we have driven to Mother's Bistro in Portland to have brunch. It is that good!) But this time we decided to try Egg's cetera, a place with a look and feel that is similar to Mother's and the Brunch was great. The Pecan waffle was mouth watering, and we conclude

Mithun: Amitabh :: Egg's Cetera: Mothers

Leaving you with two pictures that defined the rest of the trip...

Inchin's on New Years eve




The Northbend mall a day after we landed in Seattle. The backdrop was so unique for an outlet mall.




We have already begun the process of leaving the trip behind in our memories and are back to the work, school routine!

The posts on life's "little" quirks will begin soon enough...

did you stay in redmond? Inchin is for sure the best place...I was living in redmond for a summer, and in spite of my resolve to not eat at the same place twice so that I can check out all the eateries in seattle, I ended up at Inchin 4 times.

Mayuri chat is bad and I am surprised you found the Mayuri restaurant good. But there is another Indian place called Preets. Best Indian food bar none. you should check it out next time
