More Ice Cream on Capitol Hill, Farmers' Markets, and Three Girls in Ballard

If you've been anywhere near the Oddfellows Building recently you might have noticed the line outside of the recently opened Molly Moon's Homemade Ice Cream. A second ice cream shop, Old School Frozen Custard, is opening a few blocks away sometime in May. But according to CHS, there has been talk of a third shop opening. No word on where it will be exactly, but the owners are hoping to open in a few weeks.

One of the coolest things about summer in Seattle is not having to settle for the produce aisle when it comes to quality fruits and vegetables. The Columbia City Farmer's Market kicked off the season last Wednesday, while Broadway's is schedule to open this Sunday.

One restaurant is getting a do-over on the Seattle food scene. According to Eat+Drink, William Belickis' Mistral Kitchen will be a more versatile space, and less time consuming than Mistral, his Belltown venture that closed in 2008. Set to open in fall of 2009, Mistral Kitchen looks as if it will cater to any budget, and even more tastes.

If your idea of a quality skin flick starts with three women baking various pastries and desserts, then the news that Three Girls Bakery is expanding to Ballard is good news. My Ballard reports that "the old Ballard Pet Store at 15th Ave and 61st" will be the bakeries second home.
