SEATTLE SUMMER FUN Flavorful Festivities To Delight All Summer festivals play an integral part of Seattle life, and last summer was no exception. From May to September. Seattelites indulged In everything from the Fremont arts and crafts fair to big-name musical acts at the Bumbershoot Arts Festival. Among these festivals, two continually attract Seattle-lites by the droves — the Bite of Seattle and Seafair. Fairgoers with adventuresome palates indulged in the fifth annual Bite of Seattle from July 17 to 19. The event, which has grown in popularity each year, began as a dream of Seattle restauranter Al Silverman, who operates Big Al’s Steak Ranch on Aurora Ave. N. “Big Al got big ideas about a food extravaganza here after noting that the food test Taste of Chicago, attracted 800,000 visitors in 1981. One year later. Silverman convinced 50 Seattle restaurants to set up booths over a summer weekend in the outfield of the baseball diamond at GreenLake. The first Seattle Bite drew 180,000. In 1986, City Hall insisted that Silverman move the event to Seattle Center, partly because some Green Lake area merchants complained about traffic on neighborhood streets. Silver-man moved, despite misgivings that the Center might be too small. It wasn’t. About 350.000 people attended the fair and sampled dishes from 50 different restaurants. Last year. 51 restaurants participated. each paying $2,600 for concession rights. Meals cost about $4 and admission to the fair was free, as usual. Restaurants new to The Bite included The Parisi Brothers, with three kinds of Clzone; Blue Max. with beef brochette, salmon bisque and lobster; Catfish Corner. featuring cajun foods; and World Class Chili, specializing in Cincinnati-style chili. In addition to the restaurant booths situated around the Center’s International Foundation, 20 wineries offered tastings. by Doreen Marchionni a seafair pirate makes ihe traditional iand»ng at Aiki X Kevin M.
