RicemanX 20 Posted July 13, 2006 Hey guys, my company is sending me there for a meeting and I have about 5 hours between my arrival time and the meeting time. I was wondering if you could recommend me something to do. Thanks a lot! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shovelheadt 62 Posted July 13, 2006 jesus christ i found that funny. wtf is wrong with me? Definitely something, because it wasn't even remotely close to being funny. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hoytdwow 202 Posted July 13, 2006 Definitely something, because it wasn't even remotely close to being funny. Somewhere, somehow, there's got to be a dog that needs hitting with a rake. Off you go! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

proninja 0 Posted July 13, 2006 Since you've only got 5 hours, I'd probably hit the Seattle Center and go to the top of the space needle, maybe EMP, and spend some time at the Pike Place Market. Might as well do the famous stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RicemanX 20 Posted July 13, 2006 Hmm, any good places to eat around pike place market? i love good seafood. That IS the fish place right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jackie sherrill 0 Posted July 13, 2006 Hmm, any good places to eat around pike place market? i love good seafood. That IS the fish place right? When I was there in September, we walked from the market to McCormick and Schmick's on Fourth. It was outstanding, and I recommend the Sturgeon if they have it on the menu when you're there (they print a new menu every day with that day's fresh fish selections).

FYI, I'm sure it's good, but it's a chain. When in Rome - eat locally at someplace you won't find back home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jackie sherrill 0 Posted July 13, 2006 FYI, I'm sure it's good, but it's a chain. When in Rome - eat locally at someplace you won't find back home. this is true, I think there are 3 or 4 of them around the west. I abide by that rule when travelling. I forgot that is was a chain, but there aren't any near me so I really enjoyed it. There are many, many seafood restaurants near the market. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sawilson 1 Posted July 13, 2006 So let me get this straight. They are flying you in - you have 5 hours, then a meeting, then you are flying out???? Why not eat at the space needle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick the Cat 1 Posted July 13, 2006 When in Rome yes? go on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RicemanX 20 Posted July 13, 2006 So let me get this straight. They are flying you in - you have 5 hours, then a meeting, then you are flying out???? Why not eat at the space needle? No, I'm staying there from August 1st - 3rd. But looking at the agenda, the only time I will be able to do anything is August 1st in the afternoon. The rest of the time are already filled by meetings, group dinners, blah blah blah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T-TOWN BALLER 0 Posted July 14, 2006 Go to the Pike Place Market, everything you would want/need is within walking distance. from t*ty bars to shopping. A good place to eat is the Metropolian Grill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gephardt69 0 Posted July 14, 2006 don't go to that park that's by pike place. I went there one time and this crazy guy came up to us and kept making dumb ass statements about seattle and said he was a good ambassador for the city and I should pay him for his ambassador services. I said if he left I wouldn't kick his ass. unfortunately he left and so I didn't do any ass-whooping so I had a bad day that day. the best thing to do is... you know what... the traffic sucks there, especially on 5, and the roads are all bumpy and so you can just spend your 5 hours driving to downtown, then driving back to whereever you need to go!
