Day 2 was mostly all about Pike Place Market. I am a foodie and had researched all the best spots to eat at the market so we started our day early and hungry.
We started with some donuts from Daily Dozen Donuts. They were really yummy. They tasted more like cake to me with a crispy exterior and a cake like consistency on the inside. After that we headed to Three Girls Bakery. We got a bacon and cheese pastry, a vanilla macaroon, a raspberry cobbler, and a double O which is a Reece's cooked inside a peanut butter cookie. I had high expectations for this place but nothing was that great. It was all okay but the flavors weren't there for me.
Then we just walked around and sampled everything we possibly could. It was so fun and there were so many unusual people too. Jason bought some sign's from this cute Chinese man for his SNF building. They were supposed to be $6 each. He just started charging for random things like telling us one thing was a sentence and not just a word so it was double the price. After 3 signs we paid like $46. Thanks for ripping us off cute little Chinese man :).
The flowers were amazing!! There were rows and rows of them and huge bouquets were only $10. I would always have fresh flowers if i lived close to the market. It was so beautiful.
We got macaroons at the French bakery ( I actually like the one's from the frozen section of Trader Joe's better.) We went to the very first Starbucks, and took a picture with the world's tallest man. That is his actual size in the picture.
We ate at Beecher's Cheese. It was yummy! We tried the Macaroni and Cheese because it is supposed to be the best in the world. It was amazing but it was made with penne noodles and so I felt like I was eating pasta not macaroni. The tomato soup was divine.
We had great weather while we were there. It only drizzled a few days during our whole trip. The day we went to Pike market it was the hottest day so far this year. It was beautiful (still cold though.)
