Seattle's foodies
are all abuzz over Marazul, a new
Asian-Cuban-Caribbean inspired restaurant which is just next to
the Pan
Pacific Hotel. Chef Bruce Dillon has aimed to create
island luxury- and living- at a reasonable price. Well, one thing
for sure that will get diners in the island mood will be the
in-house rhum bar, which stocks over 40 varieties. The menu takes
inspiration from around the world. There's fusion tapas on the
menu like jerk pork potstickers with guava plum dipping sauce and
pad thai with prawns, scallops, clams, Chinese sausage and
coconut curry sauce. In the tatami
room try the watermelon, ahi tuna, and miso ceviche or shrimp
adobado sate. During the summer, Marazul will
also be serving sugarcane snow cones laced with rum on the
outdoor deck. Now that's almost as good as a real
Caribbean getaway. Marazul, 2200 Westlake Avenue, Seattle (206)-654-8170.
