Well, it's already $7.99 for a plate of food at Flaming Wok, the buffet is only $10.99. You might be wondering why we didn't shop a bit first and eat at the food fair. We headed over to the land of one-arm bandits and smoke to grab an early lunch (I guess brunch). My poker face is as subtle as my reaction to good food. Our plan of attack was to snag a choice parking spot at the outlet and wander over to the Tulalip Casino. With our Nexus passes, we merrily bypassed the 2-hour lineup at the border and headed south on I-5. Having visited Woodburn only 3 weeks ago, it didn't stop us from heading down to Tulalip on the Labour Day weekend. I regularly visit the Woodburn Outlets just south of Portland and the Seattle Premium Outlets in Tulalip. Therefore, I am no stranger to shopping at outlets. I used to prowl Redflagdeals, Slickdeals and Techbargains quite often until this food blog has taken over my life. Believe it or not, I really don't mind shopping.
