  1. I am from Pittsburgh, and we will be playing Seattle in the Super Bowl. What
    would be people's suggestions for foods to serve which would be "native" to
    Seattle. So far I figure Dungeness crabs, and coffee. Rainer Ale would be on
    my list, but I do not think it is available in the area. Seattle's best
    coffee is sold in Pittsuburgh, but I wonder if it is really from Seattle.

    Salmon, oysters, desserts with apples or blackberries, Washington State
    wines.
    Seattle's Best roasters are in Seattle but obviously the coffee isn't
    native to the area.

    Go Seahawks!

    Tom, I don't know much about Seattle foods (other than coffee and crab, or
    maybe some kind of cute MicroSoft-themed something or other...or some food
    in the shape of the Space Needle....or maybe Seahawk wings?).

    But here's a question for you.....What Pittsburgh foods are there
    (especially that would be suitable for SuperBowl munchies)? What do they
    call hoagies there....is it bulkies? And there's something interesting with
    french fries, right? What else? Thanks!

    BBQ chipped ham sandwiches, Italian wedding soup, Klondike bars,
    fried zucchini, Clark Bars, Iron City Beer, turtle soup, turkey
    Devonshire, Big Macs.

    And if your Seattle fans don't like it, they can go to hell.

    French fries are used on a Primanti Bros sandwich (along with
    cole-slaw). For other Pittsburgh foods, see my previous post.

    Actually, some of the downtown souvenir shops sell bags of pasta shaped
    like our iconic landmark: "Space Noodles."

    I'm still not sure if "seahawk" refers to a real creature, or the
    stylized bird images that appear in the art of Native Americans of the
    NW.

    Maybe it refers to the stuff that CJ and I once had at a restaurant in
    Port Angeles. We ordered Tandoori chicken, and it was nasty. Dry,
    tough, and flavorless. When we walked out of the restaurant we noticed
    a large group of seagulls in the alley behind the restaurant, picking at
    garbage. Right next to the kitchen door. Ever since then, we've
    referred to that joint as the "Tandoori Seagull" restaurant.

    IMHO, Starbucks aka Charbucks is far worse.
