betty restaurant

i have been SO BAD about eating out this week. going to LA on monday threw everything off because after i got back, work got crazy and i never made it to the grocery store. the saddest part is that i literally live across the street from safeway :(

so saturday night my friend will and i hit up betty on upper queen anne because once again, i was too lazy to cook. it happened to be happy hour still by the time we got there (4-6:30 daily) so i ordered a few things to try out with a generous glass of pinot grigio :)

will got the betty burger which is supposed to be fantastic. we learned they even make the 'butter bun' themselves. i ordered pork tacos and steamed manila clams with chorizo sausage. apparently i was really in the mood for chorizo this last weekend!

the food was so great! especially after the food i ate at pintxo, haha. i would say i enjoyed the clams a little more than the tacos. the tacos were good...but they were a little puny and just your standard shredded pork taco. don't get me wrong, it was seasoned well, bla bla but the clams won me over.



they were very generous with the clams and the chorizo! actual chunks! not garnishes! the broth was a little spicy and really yummy to dip my bread into. the only issue i had was how they presented it. who puts clams with broth in a tall cup!? it was weird to eat and i couldn't get to the broth till i ate majority of them. i'd re-think the plating, betty! i will definitely be back though :)
