Stumbling Monk

Luckily, one of our friends from Montreal was able to put us in contact with a close friend and university buddy who lives in our neighborhood. Initially we met up with Liberty and her partner, Jake at a place called Oddfellows but when we realized the wait for a table there would be 40 minutes, we walked over to a place called the Stumbling Monk for some good Belgian beer instead. It was in many ways the antithesis of the yuppy chic resto we rendez-voused at, but it's humble and "come as you are" atmosphere was a refreshing and cozy alternative. We had a really great time getting to know the two of them and took away a lot of great recommendations with regards to things to do/see in town. My favorite tip: the many Twin Peaks tours of WA state. Cherry pie -here I come...
