West Seattle scenes: Taste of West Seattle, WS Art Walk

Kokoras Greek Grill in Morgan Junction (foreground) and Eats Market Cafe in Westwood Village (background) were two of the food purveyors at Thursday night’s Taste of West Seattle at The Hall at Fauntleroy, benefiting West Seattle Helpline – and even in the early minutes, when we dropped in for some quick pix, the place was buzzing:

Others on the long list of Taste of West Seattle participants included WSB sponsor Cafe Revo (added Friday – Revo won “best bite”!). As we mentioned earlier in the day, it was a busy night around West Seattle. We also made the rounds of some of the West Seattle Art Walk venues – first, it wouldn’t be Art Walk night without food, and neon-bright cupcakes were offered at The Skate Church in The Junction:

Then we caught up with a few artists – at Clementine, William A. Herberholz:

At Keller-Williams Realty, artists included Mark Morgan and Krissy Maier:

And before the night was out, we went to Alki to catch the post-sunset glow – the Bathhouse was a beautiful Art Walk venue, with the view blending right in as an artwork in its own right:

The West Seattle Art Walk has venues from Fauntleroy to Alki to Admiral to Morgan Junction to Delridge, all over the peninsula, and you can enjoy the next one on June 11th – do note, many of the art shows are up for the entire month, not just WSAW night. At ArtsWest, though, the annual student exhibition is only up two more days – today and tomorrow.

    Attention baklava junkies:

    Kokoras Grill makes what I think is the best in the city, especially when it is fresh that day. Your sweet tooth will be oh so happy with that honeyed, nutty, subtly citrusy, wholesome goodness. Just thought you should know.

    And everything else they serve up is wonderful too, of course.

    Ahhh… Kokora’s! Small menu but *excellent* food. The owners used to own a greek restaurant in downtown Kent (Spiro’s) that I also loved. I think the restaurant is still there but with different owners. When I went back a few years ago I noticed the food was much less tasty. I’m so glad Kokora’s owners followed me to West Seattle!

    AND… Kokoras now has a Gyro punchcard !

    I really enjoyed the Taste of West Seattle – I was amazed at how much food you could get, if so inclined! This was definitely something I’ll go back to.

Sorry, comment time is over.
