The Palm Terrace Restaurant overlookingrepparttar Caribbean features international and local cuisine in an elegant, romantic setting. A delicious lunch onrepparttar 133675 open-air terrace began with fresh Spicy Ahi Tuna and an entrée of grilled Mahi-Mahi, Herb Jasmine Rice with stir-fried Vegetables and Tabouleh Salsa. I tried hard not to indulge my sweet tooth but was completely won over byrepparttar 133676 incredibly smooth and tangy Mango-Chocolate Torte placed before me. Who could resist?

Café Taboras is open for those seeking lighter fare, such as pizza, pasta, and other alternative menu items. You can also walk over torepparttar 133677 Piperade Restaurant at The Fairmont Glitter Bay for a change of scene and cuisine, as this lovely restaurant, with it's Moorish arches and cool ocean breezes, sits so close torepparttar 133678 sea you can almost feelrepparttar 133679 salt spray on your face.

Focused On Film In Seattle

Written by Jetsetters Magazine


Continued from page 1

Of course, a film festival isn't only about films that you can see. SIFF is also full of filmmaker's forums, where you can go to learn about various aspects ofrepparttar filmmaking industry, network with directors, screenwriters, or producers, and listen in on panel discussions about various states ofrepparttar 133674 industry. Even if you don't takerepparttar 133675 time to attend a forum, you can get a taste of how a film came together, simply by hanging out at most films afterrepparttar 133676 closing credits and listening torepparttar 133677 director or star of a film take questions fromrepparttar 133678 audience. If this is your focus, however, be sure to pay special attention torepparttar 133679 program guide and see which films advertise that a guest will accompanyrepparttar 133680 screening.

Seattle doesn't haverepparttar 133681 festival party scene that you read about with Sundance or Cannes, but there are some parties. The opening night and closing night galas are part of your ticket for those events and can be exceptional fun. We went torepparttar 133682 closing night film/gala this year and had a great time. The film was Passionada, directed byrepparttar 133683 cofounder ofrepparttar 133684 festival, Dan Ireland andrepparttar 133685 party was atrepparttar 133686 new Elliott Hotel (Hyatt) at 7th and Pine Streets. The working class world of a Portuguese community in New Bedford, Massachusetts, andrepparttar 133687 grand lobby ofrepparttar 133688 Elliott didn't exactly complement each other, but they were both worth it. And how can you pass up a party whererepparttar 133689 drinks are free,repparttar 133690 food is good, and you get to bump intorepparttar 133691 stars ofrepparttar 133692 film or sit next torepparttar 133693 guy who inspiredrepparttar 133694 story of The Big Lebowski?

Now about those films: I saw 56 films in 25 days. Because ofrepparttar 133695 way films are scheduled against each other, it isn't actually possible to see allrepparttar 133696 films inrepparttar 133697 festival. Most ofrepparttar 133698 films were new, butrepparttar 133699 festival was also doing a retrospective ofrepparttar 133700 last golden age in American cinema (the 70s -- a local theater was also showing 70s films as a festival sidebar), a tribute to cinematographer James Wong Howe, and its regular programming of archival films.
