Guidebook for Seattle
Food Scene
Chef Eduardo Jordan won two James Beard awards in 2018: Best Restaurant NW for June Baby and Best Chef. His first restaurant, Salare (just a few blocks away) is more high end. June Baby is southern food like you’ve never experienced it before. You’ll be rewarded for being adventurous. Close by, but we recommend driving.

Have you heard of this company called Amazon that's taking over the world? Well it built two large glass spheres in downtown and we're not sure what to say about them out loud but secretly they are kind of cool. Worth checking out!
