Mom's Last Night in WA...

For Christmas Dad and Karen gave Mom and I gift cards to Purple Cafe and Wine Bar. I had been to Purple once before for Happy Hour, but I had never had a full meal there. So I was very excited to be able to go eat there!!

 This is a view of just one of the floor to ceiling wine racks. 

 This was are awesome view from our table

 A glass of champagne!!

 Our appetizer...Bacon and caramelized onions. It is delicious!!

 Mom ordered the Grilled Prime Sirloin which is roasted new potatoes, grilled broccolini, caramelized cippolini onions and red wine-mushroom jus. For a sirloin I have to say that this was a melt in your mouth meal! I have never tasted a steak that was this amazing!

 Everyone knows my love for pasta, so I ordered the Basil Pesto Pasta.  The pasta has pennini, kalamata olives, fresh tomato, pine nuts and I added the extra prawns. I have eaten a lot of pasta in my life and this dish by far is the best pasta dish that I have ever eaten!

 This is a restaurant the I might not go to all the time, but I will definitely go back every few months! Everything I have eaten there has been amazing and I think that everyone should go to Purple Cafe and Wine Bar if you are in the Seattle Area. There are four locations, Bellevue, Kirkland, Woodinville and Seattle.
