A week of amazing weather in Seattle lead Sunny & I over to check in on the progress over at Suncadia. About eighteen months ago we headed over to see what all the fuss was about. Condos and single family homesites were selling like hotcakes. Well, the economic downturn has stymied development of the much anticipated retail | restaurant area. Not much has changed in eighteen months. The entertainment “hub”, if you will, was to rival that of Sunriver Resort in Bend, OR and Whistler Village in Whistler, B.C., but after all this time they haven’t even broken ground. If you come to Suncadia to play some golf or take in some quality spa time, it would be worth your while to take the 5 minute drive over to neighboring Roslyn and eat at the Roslyn Cafe.
Sunny & I stopped in for a quick snack. The Roslyn Cafe is a charming and inviting place. The menu is nice & simple – one page. Torn between the burger and fish n chips, we opted to share the fish n chips. It turned out to be the right choice (unfortunately no pics). We got two nice sized pieces of fish with a generous portion of their famous crispy parmesan fries and a side of cole slaw. The fries lived up to the reputation – they remained nice and crispy throughout the meal. The fish-batter ratio was good, one could actually taste the fish, and the slaw was not drowning in mayo. A third piece of fish can be added to the entree for an additional $3, brining the total to $13.00 – not too bad.

On this beautiful sunny day we sat right under the sign
