Last summer we took a vacation to Vegas, Vancouver and Seattle. While in Seattle, we availed ourselves of the greatness that is Mighty-O Doughnuts, an all-vegan doughnut bakery on North 55th Street. In three days, we consumed two-and-a-half dozen sweet spherical treats, and little else.

And right across the street from Mighty-O is Zoka, the coffeehouse where I ordered (and drank) the best soy latte I've ever had.
