The Seattle food scene was abuzz this week over the news that the much-hyped New York City-based cocktail bar Death & Co. plans to open its fifth location in the Pioneer Square “micro-district” RailSpur sometime next year. A press release says that the bar intends to “create a thoughtfully designed space – and menu – that honors the area’s rich history while offering a contemporary and inviting atmosphere, catering to both locals and visitors alike looking for a post-work cocktail, a date night destination, and all the toast-worthy moments in between.”

If you want to plan ahead with your gift-giving, the Cancers, Leos, and Virgos in your life will surely appreciate birthday presents like hand-crafted salami, chili crisp, or wooden cutting boards—or just treat yourself to something special.
