New Year's Resolutions or Regrets?
By Justin Coffey, Citysearch Contributor
You know you should stick to your resolutions, but sometimes it's easier said than done. Here are some ways to help you stay true to your word, and places to indulge if you slip.
-
QUIT SMOKING SEATTLE
2608 Third Ave, Seattle, WA
So you tried the patch, tried the chewing gum and still no luck? Why not hypnotize yourself? -
Zaina
2800 1st Ave, Seattle, WA
Not ready to kick the habit? Check out this Middle Eastern joint on weekends and enjoy the hookah lounge on the rear deck and celebrate your other resolutions.
-
Teacup
2207 Queen Anne Ave N, Seattle, WA
With more than 150 varieties of tea, this Queen Anne haven is a great alternative to hot toddies and Irish coffees. -
Irish Emigrant
5260 University Way NE, Seattle, WA
Not ready to jump on the wagon? Check out the Mug Club on Tuesday nights. $5 buys you the mug for $1 beers all night. Bring the mug back the next week and continue the tradition.
-
ZUM
2235 Fifth Ave, Seattle, WA
An obvious choice for those seeking a slimmer physique. This hip Belltown gym offers classes taught by former Cirque du Soleil members and features a cool fitness sandpit. -
Central Cinema
1411 21st Ave, Seattle, WA
Skip the workout sessions and bike rides. Instead, sit down here and enjoy a lager with your movie. A great companion to the "maybe next year" fitness plan.
-
Central Co-op's Madison Market
1600 E Madison St, Seattle, WA
This seriously healthy place to eat and shop offers organic, freshly-made and locally-grown products. -
Wedgwood Broiler
8230 35th Ave NE, Seattle, WA
Eating champions can step up to the 72-ounce steak dinner challenge, where contestants must finish the steak, tomato juice, soup, salad, fries, bread, ice cream and coffee within an hour--or pay for the entire meal. 72 ounces never hurt anyone, right? There are plenty of other resolutions that need some attention this year anyhow...
-
Gordito's Healthy Mexican Food
213 N 85th St, Seattle, WA
$5 buys you a burrito the size of a house cat... more than enough to feed two people. This is wise way to save some scratch in the new year. -
Club Hollywood Casino
16716 Aurora Ave N, Shoreline, WA
Doesn't seem like the place to go if you are looking to build up your savings account; but then again, you never know, right? Nightly tournaments for those who are feeling lucky.
