Here are the places you need to try when you come to our area, just north of Seattle.
1206 1st St, Snohomish, WA 98290
This charming Snohomish restaurant in historic setting offers all of the charcuterie and wine choices. Fine cheeses, and vintages in various combinations make this a great place to linger the afternoon over a merlot. Their veggie sandwich: try it and you won't be sorry.
117 E Division St, Arlington, WA 98223
There is no other place quite like "the Mirkwood." It specializes in vegetarian cuisine (though they do have meat options), and they have a Lord of the Rings theme. Seriously.
2918 Hoyt Ave, Everett, WA 98201
Vegan Cafe across the street from an art gallery: what a perfect combo. If you go to Cafe Wylde try their Emerald smoothie and a large bowl of jackfruit and white bean chili.
203 5th Ave S #1, Edmonds, WA 98020
Everything’s coming up cheesy for this Edmonds restaurant. No for the lactose intolerant. This place specializes in savory truffle oil popcorn, brie sandwiches, and pickled peppers. A deli for the fromage-lover in you.
19417 36th Ave W # A1, Lynnwood, WA 98036
There’s nothing pretentious about the decor or the location, but the pho here is darn hot and undeniably delicious. And that’s reason enough to visit after a trip to the Alderwood Mall or H Mart. Sometimes thick slabs of tofu and tender baby bok choy are everything in the taste department.
