a blog about dining in, dining out and nw entertainment. restaurant reviews, recipes and more.... after years of working part time as a customer service evaluator and mystery shopper and having worked in several restuarants and food service establishments, i decided to combinet my love of cooking, dining out and going to concerts in the nw with my passion for writing and design. halfbakedinseattle sprung from months of frustration, unemployment and a need for sharing my passions with others. i started to find my niche when i began working as a monthly food critic for the eastside sun. my grandmother was both a restaurant cook and newspaper journalist and my uncle, a professional baker. i guess these things came naturally to me and now my daugther is also looking at possibly attending school in the near future for pastry arts. i am now full time employed, but still try to blog when i can about my experiences dining out, dining in or listening to bands in the seattle area.
