"This gluten-free Pioneer Square counter spot has some hot entrees and a deli case full of banchan you could also build a meal around, like apple cucumber potato salad, spicy squid, or, our favorite, marinated eggs. The eggs are jammy in the middle and tamari-soaked on the outside, and are well worth including in a banchan-based trio—or added alongside gochujang-y bibimbap. And if there’s an atmospheric river in the forecast and only something soupy will do, order the spicy potato stew "Sara's Way," which means the addition of rice and chili oil. It's hard to imagine a better lunch around Downtown." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley, carlo mantuano, gabe guarente
