“A conversation I have every month or so” reminded me to tell you about my most favorite local site: Lost in Seattle.
Hours and contact information for restaurants, bars, businesses…but the best part is the translation of hours relative to the moment you’re looking for it. Sure you can do the math in your head, but that at-a-glance “to go” information is quite nice to have.
When I’m looking for a place, it goes something like this:
[Browser] > Google search box > “lost in seattle [destination] [neighborhood if known]”
9 times out of 10 that gets me exactly what I’m looking for and away I go.
