Food Scene

Duke's is just a couple of blocks from my place and right on the water. The seafood is fresh, as is the delicious warm sourdough bread. Chowders and salmon tacos are a favorite!

It's a Seattle landmark, and you'll taste why. Great fish and chips and great sense of seaside history.

Phoenicia recently moved from Alki up to the Alaska/California Junction. It's still worth a trip for the lovely ambiance and gourmet Middle Eastern menu.

Seriously one of the best pizzas in Seattle. Thick, baked to perfection with your favorite toppings. Friends in Texas come see me every year just so they can go to Pegasus.

Great cappuccinos as well as fun Alki souvenirs. And only halfway up the steep hill from my house!

**Sob** The pandemic closed our Alki store, but you can get Top Pot donuts at any QFC in Seattle, including the one near the Alaska/California junction. Definitely worth a visit.

Excellent happy hour menu - good for people- and beach-watching. And really tasty Mexican food; the chips are freshly made right before they are served, and the street tacos are divine.

Sightseeing

One of Seattle's best-kept secrets -- only Olmstead park in the city, and features true old-growth forest. On summer mornings you'll hear Western Meadowlarks.

No beach stroll is complete without taking in a peek at the Lighthouse. There are tours offered several times a year.
