Here’s Why You’re Happy It’s Monday

What meatlessness looks like at Tallulah’s.

Welcome to Monday: The day when Seattle restaurants showcase specialties to fill echoing houses. At the Linda Derschang restaurants Tallulah’s, Smith, and Oddfellows Café + Bar every Monday is Meatless Monday, where vegetarian food promotes the lighter-footprint benefits of a meat-free diet.

Next Monday, November 3—being the first Monday of the month—those Derschang properties will donate ten percent of their sales to Pasado’s Safe Haven, an animal sanctuary and animal rights advocacy organization north of Seattle. That’s a regular first-Monday thing, and they switch up the non-profit beneficiaries.

That pumpkin farro risotto with hazelnuts and sage you see to the left? It’ll be on the card next Monday at Tallulah’s.

Other Monday madness:

  • An order of wings for 27-cents at another Derschang joint, King’s Hardware.
  • A pound of wings for $4.99 at Wing Dome.
  • Three-course dinners, starring gnocchi, at Rione XIII for $25.
  • All evening happy hour with half-off all appetizers at List.
  • Mac and cheese nights at Restaurant Zoe (starting up again next Monday, after Restaurant Week).
  • Trapeze artist at the Pink Door.
  • Wood-fired pizzas for $10 at Café Lago.
  • Paella for $15 at Terra Plata. (Sangria too.)
