Oh, and apparently they have a wicked live music rotation, but I was on the restaurant side and wasn't privy to the entertainment.
In Seattle, this'll have to due.
That's right... Trader Joe's. In a town of under 5,000 people. And might I add, a very spacious, fully stocked, exceptionally friendly outlet at that. The parking sucks, (as it seems to at every TJs around the country) but considering you're only beating out the 20 other people per square mile out here, you'll be sorted with your spiced cider, 2 buck Chuck, blue tortilla chips and organic granola in no time.
It was beyond me how on Earth this relatively tiny outpost of a rare California village was blessed with the godsend of organic glory... then I checked out the demographics: "As of the census[2], there were 4,687 people. The racial makeup of the CDP was 90.36% White..." Need I go on? If so, please read this: http://stuffwhitepeopl...
When it comes to massages, I'm much less concerned about the pre and post-amenities and all about the in room action. So while I can't tell you much about locker room etiquette or waiting room perks, I can tell you that Liz my massage practitioner was absolutely phenomenal, as was the warmed massage table, the melt-like-bud'er sheets, and the non-elevatorish relax jams. I'll trade the feng shui of a thousand frilly day spas for the non-product pushing 75 minutes of massage and paraffin foot pack glory I just experienced, 23 floors below the hotel room I'm staying in.

Chicken? Goooood

All of them together in one gut bomb of a lunch to-go box of all that is oh-so-wrong and ever-so-right about our blessed US of A? OMGBRBWTFBBQ, this place is so good it hurts. (No really, I'm still hurting from this meal. Ouch.)
Farmerbrown's Little Skillet is southern soul food at its very finest.

Club One Fitness
Category: Gyms
Neighbourhood: SOMA
Sure it's not the swankiest gym on the block, but it definitely gets the job done. $55 for a week pass is the best rate you'll get anywhere around, and you'll find a decent number of classes, machines, and other calorie-burning-goodies at your disposal... including spacious and clean locker rooms with free guest lockers and grooming amenities.
Overall: Do it. This little gym packs a big punch for a low price! Score!
Sure you're "Out The Door," but obviously on what my family lovingly dubs "Troy time" as our friend's dish did not arrive until after all 15 of us had completely devoured our meals and were analyzing the bill. We were out the door before his meal even arrived. Peace out (the door). ...Ok, that's all I got, I promise...
To be honest, this is one of those plot-thinning dining experiences where everything on the menu sounded much better than it came out looking. The few exceptions were the broccoli tofu side dish and the dungeness crab noodle dish, which were two reeeeeeally great exceptions that kept this star ranking hovering above a two. Many of us also enjoyed the fabulous bubble tea and cane soda.
Would I go back? Potentially. But certainly not if I needed to get out the door in a hurry.
There was Thai food
There were tables
There were waitresses
There were menus
There were forks... just not enough for all of us all at once
Aaaaand, that's about all I've got for ya.
Looking for simple, easy, safe Thai food that won't offend in any way shape or form? This is your spot. (...Ya square!)
It's not that I'm anti sushi train, (while the fact that food is parading in front of you is off putting in theory, it is rather amazing in practice... and traditional, I might add!) Sure portions are small and prices are high, the ginger and wasabi have been sitting out all day at communal tables, and service is slow... but that's not the problem.
The problem is the sushi. Sashimi and nigiri, specifically. It's just, well, nasty. The temperature is off and it tastes of plastic cling wrap (from which it's pulled minutes before). Really, it's just not good.

What is this "real deal" I speak of? Well it's everything from the hearty home-cooked goodness of salt beef steak and handmade venison pies, to the "crunchier" side of wheat free carrot cake, museli, bio yogurt and blueberry compote. But even with the temptation (and generous samples) of all this, my heart (i.e. my stomach) belongs to the homemade feta, broccoli and ratatouille quiche.
I highly advise popping into this secret spot next time you're schmoozing with the Google folks or waiting for a train at Victoria. You won't be disappointed -- and you might leave with a slice of lovingly made madeira cake (or seven).
