• Little Uncle in Pioneer Square (where Marcus’ Martini Heaven used to be) is OPEN, and yay for that! Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. See you there real soon!
• David Meinert and Jason Lajeunesse of Lost Lake/Big Mario’s/Neumos/etc. will be taking over Capitol Hill’s beloved Canterbury, after its troubles, reports Capitol Hill Seattle. I would like to take this opportunity to advocate for keeping the name, keeping prices low, and keeping the place pretty much exactly the same, except maybe removing all the beer promo flags and fixing the upholstery. And cleaning. It could use a deeeeeep cleaning.
• The (awesome) Fresh Bucks program—which doubles the value of food stamp benefits when used to purchase fresh food at Seattle farmers markets—is expanding to include ALL Seattle farmers markets!
• Also newly open in Pioneer Square, after a late-breaking chef change, Tinello.
