Description:
Szmania is a four star restaurant in the heart of my neighborhood - Magnolia in Seattle. It is a great restaurant with reasonable prices and a fantastic specialty drink selection. We go there once or twice a month, so there will be a lot of entries here after a short spell.

Last night Vivian and I didn't want to cook, so we walked up to Szmania for their early happy hour. We arrived at about 5 pm.

They have a set menu for happy hour with gets you an appetizer, main and dessert for $20. The nice drinks are also $2 off.

I had a Zentini which is made with green tea liqueur, Vivian had a drink with an orange peel in it. I forgot what it was.

For appetizer I had a heart of romaine salad with roquefort and pancetta. My main was their Jagerschnitzel, which is always enjoyable.

Vivian started with the goulasch and then had the mahi mahi.

We talked through the meal about Vivian's rapidly evolving plans for becoming a chocolatier. Earlier we had looked at temporary professional kitchen space and how things might look if she shared more permanent space with a friend who also makes chocolate.

Vivian's plan is solidifying. It's very exciting to watch it take shape and become real.
