Are You Pro or Anti Cupcakes?

Haven't Been To Many Cupcake Shops...
|
|
| I don't have that strong of feelings about cupcakes either way. And don't remember when I was last at one. I'd rather have cupcake shops than Moneytrees and T-Mobile stores but I can also understand liking the feel of a neighborhood. Though if it was more of a general bakery (with fresh bread!) that also had cupcakes I would love it. No matter how hip and trendy it might seem. | |

Cupcake shops in Seattle all about The Trend
|
|
| I think it would be great if Lake City had another bakery, that made a variety of baked goods.(Perfect place for a Panaderia!) I find the cupcake shops in the area, are not authentic with their recipes and really not being impressed with the quality. | |

Cupcakes Not A Problem for the Lake City Crowd
|
|
|
I think I am safe to state that cupcakes won't be overtaking our hood any time soon. I think relating it to designer yoga clothes is a small stretch but I see your point. I'm amazed that the top of Queen Anne doesn't have a pretty little cupcake shop, or do they? Though they are pretty to look at and thier [Cupcake Roayl] marketing is charming I wonder weather cupcakes are necessary. Does it fill a needed niche? Or is it just a passing trend? For the record Danaek you always look hip when you roll out of bed to go to the Breakfast Club. Espeically your hair... |

But what about the kids...?
|
|
|
I maintain my stance that cupcake shops are loved my children everywhere. If 'hipster-urban' Seattleites happen to enjoy them too, then good for them. I personally prefer my deserts in the form of milkshakes and chocolate truffles, but to each her own. Stop hatin' on the kids! |

Just come to our neighborhood
|
|
| Lake City isn't that far from Ravenna - and we're getting a Trophy Cupcakes mid-May (in the University Village). Lake City can keep its "edge" and still break down every now and then for a sugary treat in our neck of the woods. :) Just a thought. | |

nothing beats a good cupcake after ingesting a bunch of pot and oxycontin purchased in little beirut. i would say a cupcake place should open next door to the headshop, but they already got a bakery there! now that's some business synergy. |

I hate cupcakes and the people that love them...
|
|
|
ok, a little harsh, but I couldn't believe that another totally new shop was making it's way to belltown. Is there no end? I think it's a lot better than a check cashing joing ;) and honestly... if I didn't have such a male ego issue, I'd probably eat a lot more of em' http://belltownpeople.com/2009/04/28/belltown-gets-its-cupca |

I, for one, am a great fan of the cupcake and would be deeelighted if a cupcake shop should displace one of the establishments on LCW. But I think that highly unlikely. Without Cranium's, there's a big, gaping hole in our community. A bakery--with fresh baked bread, and maybe sandwiches (not Subway) and coffee is what we really, really need. Won't somebody step up? I promise to support you! And a tacqueria. Why are there no tacos on Lake City Way? |

Tacos please!
|
|
|
I totally agree that we need a tacqueria. Taco del Mar was dirty, but it was still tacos. We do have Minoo ( http://www.lakecitylive.net/locations/united-states/washingt), but it's not your typical bakery. And the Bean City now has a walk up window and delivery service during the week. Hopefully they'll get their space customer ready soon. http://www.lakecitylive.net/2009/04/13/bean-city-coffee-deli |

Looking for tacos?
|
|
| Go see Eduardo (a Lake City local) at Mr. Villa's ( http://mrvilla.net/) at 8064 Lake City Way NE and and have the lengua and carnitas tacos. The best in town. | |

cupcakes OK; bakery better!
|
|
| I am always pining for a place like Columbia City Bakery to arrive in Lake City. Baked goods, sandwiches, soup. That would be a cool thing for the old Cranium's space, no? | |

craniums
|
|
| Gosh, yeah, it would be sweet if a cool bakery could move into Craniums old place. Man I sure hope that building falls into the right hands. Is there any easy way to find out what new construction is in the area? For instance, I notice a ton of construction on a building around Bill Pierre-land, and keep hoping it is for something awesome, but suspect it is just another car showroom-- still curious to know what new things are popping up around town... | |
