Heather, Lindsee and I do Breakfast Club every month, but the other Bonaires have all sadly moved to other parts of the country, so we don't get to see them as often. So this month for Lindsee's birthday we decided to plan a fun Friday night get-together. Unfortunately the other girls boned out, but the three of us decided to get together anyway, obvi, because sometimes in life you just really need a cocktail with the girls. And the fact that Lindsee was born is a pretty important reason to celebrate.
Lindsee chose Shelter Lounge in Ballard which is one of my favorites for both food and atmosphere. I didn't take any pictures the last time I was there with my friend Cari, so I just want to share some of our yummy snacks...
Yummy cocktails... cheers to Lindsee! |
Avocado Fries Slices of avocado breaded and deep fried, served with chipotle sauce. I honestly cannot get enough of these, they're so delicious! |
Shelter Signature Sandwich Slow roasted pork shoulder, caramelized onions, provolone, serrano peppers and cilantro, grilled on a baguette. All three of us ordered this sandwich... it's basically the reason you go to Shelter Lounge. Heather thinks it rivals the best sandwich ever, but I'm not so sure about that... although it is ridiculously yummy. |
Shelter was pretty dead when we arrived at 7:00, but a few hours and a few cocktails later it was totally packed, the lights had dimmed, and the club music had been turned up. Apparently this place starts poppin' later at night! We discussed perhaps taking some shots and dropping it like it's hot just to prove we're still valid, but sadly husbands, babies, and early morning plans were calling us home, so we decided to call it a night.
It was such a fun evening though (maybe we should start having alcohol at Breakfast Club), and I always love it when we make time to get together. Next time the other Bonaires better make an appearance!
Happy (belated) Birthday, Lindsee! |
