Corn Roasters Are All Over the Place
Two more roasted corn sightings (here's a link to the first):
I was at MacPherson's Fruit and Produce yesterday, and saw the El Oaxaqueno roasted-corn shed in the parking lot (here's a post about it on the Tofu Hunter blog). It was closed, but there's a phone number, and as soon as I remember where I wrote it down as I was driving away, I'll give the place a call and try to get hours. Looked like the toppings and prices ($2.50 an ear) are the same as the other two corn roasters I know of.
Then, walking to work, I spotted another corn roaster stand on the plaza at 4th Ave. and Pine. Corn costs $2.75 here — downtown location, downtown prices. Anyone been?
Tell me: Are corn roasters new to Seattle, or am I just noticing them more this year?

There\'s a roast corn seller on the street with all of the food booths on the way into Safeco (Occidental?) - not sure about prices or tastiness, but the dudes working the booth wear huge plastic ears and say things like, \"We\'ve got huge ears here!\"

i\'ve had those on the way into the ballpark! they are $5/ear but if you get to the game late, they just give em away. they are very buttery and overall OK - but it\'s pretty tough to f-up corn.
