CityView at the Space Needle
Father-in-law Joe and “wicked” step-mother-in-law Amanda were in town for a few days at the front of December. We took a trip to the top of the Space Needle to eat at the SkyCity restaurant. It was a bit foggy when we first got up there, but it cleared up quickly and we had a great view of the city for a couple of rotations while we ate (it’s one of those rotating restaurants, of course).
We spent the rest of the weekend wine tasting and showing them around the city. One fun thing was Saturday night when we were struggling to find a place that could take us for dinner without a reservation (who’d think it would be so hard in the off season, especially starting at 5pm!). We walked around downtown for 45 minutes or more and couldn’t get in anywhere that interested us. Then we found the Union Restaurant and sat in the bar just “for a drink”. And they allowed us dinner in the bar at a table with a great view of 1st Ave… and dinner was FANTASTIC! A great experience, great food, with great service. Highly recommended.
