A verbal throwdown to determine who’ll compete at the National Poetry Slam.

When you hear the word “throwdown,” poetry isn’t generally what comes to mind.  But at Seattle Poetry Slam’s Annual Grand Slam, slam poets from all over Seattle will be using their words as fists in a battle to determine who will make the four-member team to represent our city at the National Poetry Slam this summer in Charlotte, NC.

The Seattleite team weigh-in on their foodie must-haves!

We are blessed to be in a city with a bountiful variety of grubalicious food, but only a few lucky establishments have made the cut as one of our “March Foodie Madness” dishes.  Choosing the city’s best dishes wasn’t an easy task, and all of us at Seattleite have our own favorites. Here’s a list of our team’s must-haves and why they are obsessed!

There’s no better way to celebrate and toast to the year ahead than letting the good libations flow. Seattle’s top mixologists pulled out all the stops and impressed guests with their best cocktail at Seattleite and Google Places’ New Year Libations event on Thurs., Jan. 19 at Pravda Studios in Capitol Hill. Enjoy this video recap from the hottest event with the city’s most luscious libations — cheers!
