There were two outstanding food items at the SIFF Opening Night party - one was from a great Mexican restaurant in U Village and the other was Ivar's, although the place next to the cupcakes was fun too.
Aw. I had some good times at Union. It was in a really shitty location, though. Good thing we have other awesome Ethan Stowell places to frequent in Union's stead.
@3, yeah, there's no shortage of Stowell outposts thank goodness, and I remember when Union opened I wondered if it filled a need for any diner in particular, or if it was just one piece of the chef's strategy to saturate different nabes and see what stuck.
Shit, I already lived through an era when every damn restaurant and fern bar had a clever name like The Great Pacific Northwest Eaterium and The Salad Bar and Sandwich Laboratory and Burtenfarckers And Somdomittes' Fantastic Dineinarium. What happens when you tell your server it's your birthday at How To Cook A Wolverine? Do they come out with berets on and improvise a prose poem about your childhood while serving you a special ox comfit?
If you're looking for lunch food, Amazon has a new restaurant in SLU with "a focus on sustainable, local, healthy food." Nice big sign on the door, hours are M-F 7am-4pm. But HA HA you can't eat there: http://thesouthlake.com/2010/05/18/can-t…

Never got the cupcakes - they went too fast.
Anyone know the names of those restaurants?

that space (Union) is the kiss of death for restaurants.
They, and the Wedgwood Broiler. They're all I need.
And #6, I love you. I also hate you, for being pithier than I could ever hope to be. But I'm funny that way.
