Two words: Beth's Cafe. This hole-in-the-wall restaurant has been a mecca for Seattleites since 1954, and it would be my pleasure, Jason, to introduce you to it. Beth's is known for its breakfast (the burgers and such on the menu are really just to placate the crabbiest of diners), especially the 12-egg omelets (!) and bottomless hash browns. Yep, I said bottomless. Not that anyone could polish off more than one plate of the delectably greasy, yet crispy, shredded taters. Still, it's comforting to know the option is available. Beth's is open 24 hours a day, making it the perfect place to crash after a late show or a great way to cancel out the calorie defecit you built up by walking around nearby Greenlake. The waitstaff look like they stepped out of a magazine that profiles the hippest of the hip urban 20-somethings, yet they are friendly to everyone and genuinely appear to enjoy their jobs. The prices are reasonable, the plates are heaping, and customers are even encouraged to create their own art while waiting for the cook to yell "order up!" Most of the colorful masterpieces are taped to the wall, creating one giant mural that entertains and constantly evolves, to the delight of everyone who stops by. I'm sure the hostess would be happy to add your Crayola insights to the wall, Jason. I think a picture of us dining with Kermit and Piggy would fit right in with the rest of the craziness.
