Astra Hotel’s Altitude Sky Lounge Rooftop Bar Opens in SLU - Eater Seattle
"For the first time since 2019, the Dungeness Crab and Seafood Festival, also known simply as Crabfest, is back in Port Angeles from October 7 to 9. It offers the opportunity to eat fresh Dungeness crab, harvested and cooked just 30 minutes east by car of the crab’s namesake town. During its last rendition, the festival served nine tons of crab in three days, and executive director Scott Nagel uses his own fleet of crab boats to supply the festival every year, which harvest the Dungeness crab from the nearby Strait of Juan de Fuca. The crabs are all harvested in the week leading up to the festival and are brought alive to the festival each day, where they’re cleaned and cooked on site and served with corn and coleslaw. They weigh around two pounds each. Preorders for crab dinners are going for $40, or $21 for half a crab, on the festival’s website. The festival is also offering curbside pickup Friday and Saturday. You can also order a cooked and cleaned crab with no sides for $35. Beyond the crab, the festival will have live music, a beer and wine garden, and 60 seafood-focused dishes from local restaurants, serving dishes ranging from Caribbean seafood stew to pan-seared Alaskan weathervane scallops." - Jade Yamazaki Stewart
