Go with the Courtyard in Pioneer Square. We stay there at least once a year. The Renaissance is nicer and has a bigger room, but it's all the way at the top of a hill and it's a pain in the ass.
If you stay there, try the pasta place around the corner. It's only open during the week for lunch. It's amazing. Get there before they open the doors or else you'll be waiting for a while. The line goes around the corner pretty fast.
Edit: my wife goes there twice a year. I go once a year with her. It's our favorite hotel in the area. She's from WA so we head there once a year for personal travel. She goes there for work for a couple weeks every year.

Since your going for a weekend, and doing a nice surprise for your wife, have fun. Enjoy it.

I like seeing what Haraki-san is working on with his sketches. Curious if these are sketches of stuff he's working on for SS19? I spy a new fabric swatch of flannel in the background

That would be my guess.

Is their houseboat over by the Ballard Locks?
I have zero clue, other than my ideal multi trip does not involve sleeping on it. [emoji23]
I’ll ask though. I got pretty good rates at the waterfront - probably going to stay there.
Is getting a rental car a total waste of time in Seattle?

If you’re staying in downtown, it’s kind of a waste. Parking sucks, and mass transit is pretty good if you need to travel from one end of the city to the other.
The waterfront Marriott is nice if you get a good rate. It’s right across from Anthony’s I think.
Be situationally aware at night if you’re going up the stairs adjacent to it going up to the market. There are sometimes some sketchy characters there.
The fucking town is built vertically going west to east so wear comfy shoes!

For my trip to Seattle a couple of years ago, we skipped renting a car. Did not miss it at all, and the kids managed the walking reasonably well.

@Chris you regularly wash and machine dry your IH denim correct? If so do your Jeans not have creases and combs? Or do they but it’s less defined? Also do you get any shrink from
The regular drying? Thanks -
I will third the opinion that a rental car is not necessary if you're staying in downtown Seattle.

Good deal - thanks Everyone - hoping for a fun trip away

So I have a job interview for a management position at the restaurant where I currently wait and bartend. I need to dress right for the interviewz suggestions please.
-
Suit, even if the dress at work is casual?

Thanks Reuben

Thanks Reuben
To be honest, this is just my gut reaction. I'm in no way an expert on these matters. It just seems to me that if the owners like you enough to give you an interview for a step up then I would be interested in showing them I can take it seriously. That I'm also interested in taking my game up a notch. But business culture in the US isn't something I'm very familiar with.
My thinking is that the suit shows professional standards, charcoal and black leather is some classy shit and no tie keeps it a bit more relaxed. I bet @Appfaff would be the go-to guy for the money answer here though.

I agree with Neph on the suit with no tie - I only wear a tie when I want someone to be intimidated of me lol [emoji23]
I always do a pocket square tho to add a bit of flare and Show i k ow HOW to wear a suit, not just simply putting one on.
I know you’ve dropped a bunch a pounds - hit me up, I have about 5 suits that would fit you - I’d be happy to drop ship for you tomorrow if needed [emoji869]
