Regina's Pizzaria - (Italian) Boston
Lashers - (Fine American) Long Beach
Madison (steak) Long Beach
California Grill (French!) DLRP, France
Pink Door - Seattle
La Creperie (French) - Long Beach
Open Sesame (Lebanese) Long Beach

I know I have a lot more, but, wih a cold, I can't think of food right now.

Oh man - we can include closed places?! Then by all means the Iron Horse, formerly down SoDo area in Seattle, lost to "progress", where your meal was delivered by the model railroad. That was the best.

NA's post just made me think... what was the name of the kushiage joint we ate at in Tokyo? That's a must-do...

I wish I had taken a picture of the restaurant sign like I did so many others. We'll have to ask Carl. That place was INCREDIBLE!

Actually, everything we ate in Tokyo was pretty amazing.

In Oregon:
Buster's Texas Style Barbecue (bbq) my boys were in heaven
Toki Teriyaki (korean)
King Tin (chinese)
BJ's or McMenamins (brewery and great food)
Los Deux Amigo's (mexican) husbands fav

In Seattle friends took us to
a wonderful Irish pub
a couple breakfast places down by the harbor
and a place I think called Z(X?)enia

When we drove through Sacramento I picked up a brochure for a place called The Melting Pot (fondue)
We finally tried the one in Seattle and it was a swanky experience with our friends. They are in Portland and many areas and now I need to save my money and go again!!

We have that, too, and I've never been.

But I have been to the Matterhorn Restaurant in San Francisco! It was a long time ago, though, so I don't remember if it was really good or not. Their bar did seem to a be a yuppie after-work hangout.

Oh man, if you like fondue you have to go!! Don't be afraid to ask the waiter what they recommend either. We had the most wonderful cheese fondue that wasn't on the menu. Oh my god I'm stilling thinking about it and want more!
I was going to do a rate the swank on it, but my descriptive writing skills have been too busy trying to whip my extended family into shape.

Miceli's, in Hollywood. Best. Caprese. Ever. Love the opera-singing waiters.

Oooh... is this the place a few blocks down from the Kodak? I did go to an italian place, from the kodak, walked a few blocks... saw stars... little opening, had been there for years... had a Monroe connection?
I loved it... had no idea what it was called.
