Field Trip to Seattle – Day 3

“FieldTrips” is either a day trip or a few days where I visit food areas of interest which may include farm visits, producers, wineries, restaurants and/or other places that people can visit. This is about offering Vancouver Foodster readers a chance to get out of town and take a “Field Trip” for the day or a few days to explore, learn, taste and experience.

1 day, 2 day or 3 day itinerary

I had the Lot No 3 Punch (apple, sage and lemon) to go along with my food.
