Treasure! This past week I discovered a TikTok account called @Treasure_guys and this Seattleite, I think his name is Mike, hides treasure around the city for people to find. In his most recent hunt, his pizza inspired video ended with a clue about treasure being hidden in a park on the same street as Kerry Park. I jumped out of bed to go find it, and it only took me 3 separate trips over 24 hours to finally discover the box hidden high up in a gazebo. The box contained 25 $2 bills and a bonus $50 after I posted a video declaring I found it on TikTok. This Week at Find Me in Seattle includes: The Christmas Burger from LOCAL IN SOUTH LAKE UNION includes crispy chicken, sausage patty, bacon, white cheddar cranberry sauce, caramelized onions, cabbage, peppercorn gravy - https://localpubliceatery.com/neighbourhoods/terry-ave/menu/ Poke in Edmonds from ONO Poke - https://eatonopoke.com/ Tres Lecheria in Wallingford - https://www.treslecheria.com/ Joey Kitchen Take Home Fajita Kit - https://joeyrestaurants.com/location/joey-university-village

It's September 11, 2020 so I couldn't start the episode without reflecting on a tragic day in American History, 9/11/2001. The thoughts made me think about how we remember that day and compare it to how we are treating COVID-19. It feels like 9/11 was a day that brought us together as a country, so I'm surprised COVID feels like its doing the opposite. Fires are ravaging the entire West Coast so please stay inside, close your windows, and wear a mask. My Featured Business of the Week is the Northwest Cider Association and the beginning of Seattle Cider Week. I picked up some cider from Teku Tavern in Downtown Seattle and I'll be sharing those drinks this weekend on my IG stories. My Featured Meal of the Week is from Edmonds, Washington and ONO Poke. Their authentic Hawaiian is a fresh change from the assembly line style we see at most poke restaurants. Their fish is never frozen, the Ahi is fresh from Hawaii, Salmon from BC Canada and the Hamachi/Tako are from Japan – All Premium Sushi Grade 1. Check their Facebook page daily for their daily menu.
