Thanks Gardyloo, qisu. It's just my date and I, and he's a Seattleite so I think he'll be happy with wherever we go for brunch. We decided on Toulouse Petite for dinner on Thursday before the Mod Do since that's easier to make reservations for. Is Open Table legit or should I call the restaurant directly?

re: Ivar's -- always a great choice in my book. In the 70s when my dad was an ATC at SEATAC he used to take me to the waterfront location on his days off where we'd imbibe a cup of clam nectar w/a shot of melted butter on top. :drool:
