80th Birthday Plan: Building a List of Restaurants to Try - What Would You Add?

[Janer]

My friend and neighbor, a longtime Seattleite, has decided to celebrate her 80th birthday this year by building a list of restaurants to try throughout her birthday year. Some on the draft list are old favorites, others are places she has a hankering to try. She sees no compelling reason to leave Seattle for the suburbs (but you can try to give her one!). Not too noisy (Crow, for example, is out). A bent toward local, fresh ingredents. Someplace to linger for a nice evening out (that is, not looking for quick-bite-places, but rather relaxing-dinner-out places). What would you add to her list?
