Ever loose a restaurant that felt like a friend? For me it was Rocket Pizza which used to be on 612 Broadway East in Seattle. Man that place rocked. I'd shop for LPs at Orpheum then hit Rocket for a slice of eggplant pizza - yum, I'm drooling just thinking about it. When I moved away I missed it; frankly there's no really great pizza in England. None. Nowhere. No one's looked harder than I. So when I went back to Seattle a few years ago I was straight down to Broadway for my pizza. Only to find my beloved Rocket had gone. So next time someone asks if you want one more slice? Better say yes; one day your dream pizza might be gone too.
Footnote: when digging up the address for this blog I discovered that The OK Hotel, Last Exit on Brooklyn, Twin Teepees and The Dog House are gone too. Man, poor Seattle.
