Last Saturday, K and I did a double date with his friends Q and KT. We visited the Bodies exhibit currently showing in Seattle. I haven't really read too much about the controversy surrounding the origins of the bodies (unidentified bodies from China? political prisoners?), but thought the exhibit itself was very well put together. It was well laid out and not creepy in any way. I thought the vasculature section was the most amazing. They had preserved blood vessels and veins in organs, while dissolving the rest. So after our human anatomy lesson, we were ready for dinner at Voila.
We made it here just in time to secure the last table in this small, cozy French bistro. The menu is mostly classic French food at surprisingly low prices ($10-$13 for dinner!). We had the beef bourguignon, a very hearty cassoulet with duck confit and a pot de creme to round out the meal. Both the food and service were excellent. My only complaint would be that the beef bourguignon was too vinegary (bad wine?). I'm looking forward to coming back, possibly on Wednesdays for their $25 prix fixe.
