"Brunch spot known for Fruity Pebbles French toast closed as the owner focuses on family life." - Harry Cheadle
"This Ballard brunch spot is also not-so-secretly a coffee roaster, and it sells the top local canned cold brew — whereas most end up tasting flat and burnt, Watson’s has a light, fruit-forward profile that actually feels refreshing. It’s sold in select stores, but your safest bet is to stop by the restaurant itself and grab a couple from the fridge. And have some Fruity Pebbles French toast while you’re at it?" - Rachel Hopke, Harry Cheadle, Eater Staff
"Ballard’s Korean-influenced brunch and coffee shop serves Instagram-worthy French toast, which has the perfect combination of crunchiness and sweetness thanks to a cereal-coated crust (options include Fruity Pebbles or Frosted Flakes). Open for takeout daily; local delivery available for orders over $50." - Gabe Guarente
"Eater Seattle’s 2018 chef of the year Eric Rivera hopes to take the stress out of cooking a turkey. The Addo team plan to brine, cure, and truss 10-20 pound pre-ordered birds, throwing in sauces, casseroles, and stocks as well ($60; available for pickup on November 26 and 27). Rivera also asks all those who buy a turkey from him to donate the cost to a charity of their choosing." - Gabe Guarente
"This Ballard diner-ish restaurant has a menu of Korean-influenced comfort food that is perfect for the anything-goes vibe of brunch. Fried chicken with gochujang sauce at 10 a.m.? Sure. The famous Fruity Pebbles French toast at 2 p.m.? You got it! Watson’s Counter roasts its own coffee (you can get refills of their single-origin drip if you’re dining in) and even has soft serve on tap." - Jade Yamazaki Stewart, Sophie Grossman, Eater Staff
