Seattle is a pretty cool place for stoners to hang in public. (Just as long as you don’t get caught smoking pot in public—that’s a $27 fine.) If you’re like me, you probably enjoy most things more while under the influence, but here are some happenings that seem particularly attuned to those of us who’ve just smoked a fat doobie.
Chowing down after a nice smoke is a favorite high pastime, and there are three events coming up that speak to my rapacious soul. The three-day Seattle Wine and Food Experience is great and all, but it’s the kickoff that’s most worth mentioning: Comfort, a festival of “feel-good foods and crafty brews” (Thurs Feb 21, Sodo Park). Among the tasty selections from Seattle area gastropubs and taverns: fried chicken, mac and cheese, a Katsu Burger–run french fry bar (put the potato in my mouth, please), desserts, specialty cocktails, and plenty of craft beer and cider (be careful with the spins, friend).
