"Ballard denizens can now grocery shop and dine in at the same time. PCC Community Markets — which has 13 stores in the Puget Sound area — opened a new location yesterday at 1451 NW 46th Street, featuring its first fast casual restaurant. The fancy co-op’s 25-seat, counter service venue focuses on local, seasonal seafood made to order, including creamy clam chowder with bacon, seafood cioppino, and red curry-lemongrass mussels. It also serves local wine, beer, and cider." - Gabe Guarente
