Worth visiting!

The first time I went to this place

I came here for an interview dinner when I interviewed for an internship at Microsoft. It was the first time I’d ever interviewed anywhere, so it was after a day of grumpy Russians asking me Windows programming questions that I had no idea about (I was surprised when I found out they were making me an offer a few weeks later). Four of us packed in to a very small car and drove across the 520 bridge (which our hosts pointed out was floating), and ended up at Chinook’s. After moving to Seattle a few years later, it took me a while to figure out where we’d gone—I remembered it being on the waterfront so I assumed it was on Lake Washington or Elliot Bay, but Seattle manages to have like 5 different waterfronts.
