Located in Quil Ceda Village, about an hour north of Seattle, the Tulalip Resort may be best known for its casino – but that’s not the only reason for a visit.

If they bottled and sold that lavender vanilla soda, I'd buy it by the case!įirst course: Salumi, featuring spicy capicola, bresaola, porchetta, prosciutto, duck rillettes. I also have to commend the Tula Bene staff for coming up with non-alcoholic alternatives for this here non-wine drinker. Our multi-course Italian dinner with wine pairings was stunning from start to finish. If you're wondering how that's possible, consider this: can you get fresh Alaskan King Crab and Australian Riesling in Tuscany? Because you can at Tula Bene! The meal we enjoyed at Tula Bene was as good, if not better than the food we had in Italy. Last fall, we celebrated our wedding and honeymoon in Tuscany, where we enjoyed some of the best food of our lives.
