It is a foodie gem, ranking right up there with Union or Spring Hill or Tom Douglas restaurants, and one of my all time Seattle favorites. You&#8217;ll see the Indian influence in unique presentations and brilliant new fusion dishes. The Thali plates alone are so worth a trip. I don&#8217;t know what &#8220;Thali&#8221; means, but here&#8217;s my home-made translation: yummy-many-flavored-foodie-treats. They are my #1 happy meal in this town.</p> Thu, 17 Sep 2009 16:00:25 -0700 urn:uuid:d4427afd-9891-48be-9703-ee17df6e9973 http://seattlefoodies.net/2009/09/17/dine-at-poppy-and-support-the-capitol-hill-chamber-of-commerce#comment-85
