Good happy hour – Ivar's is like an old glove. They fit pretty well. I think their happy hour works since everything is half price. Check it out.

Anniversary Surprise – Anniversary dinner. Waterfront table overlooking Port Gardener Bay. Totally wonderful until the main courses arrived. Wife had the halibut.

Snohomish County Seafood Gem – The recently reopened Ivars in Mukilteo is a stunning surprise.

The real surprise was the really great seafood, I had the salmon baked on a cedar plank. Every part of this meal was wonderful, the cornbread pudding is a real treat.
