The 
                Social Director's picks for
                Eat and Run 
              You have only 
                about an hour for a sit-down meal. You'd like someplace nice, 
                but not too expensive. 
               
              Bahn Thai
                409 Roy Street, 206-283-0444. Thai. Inexpensive. Dinner till 11 
                pm nightly, lunch weekdays only. Reservations recommended.
                It's a cozy, pleasant, candle-lit spot (some say romantic) with 
                an extensive Thai menu. When it comes to spices, you can tell 
                them how hot you do or don't want it (one to four stars). They 
                also have many options for vegetarians. Save room for coconut 
                ice cream.

              Pagliacci's 
                Pizza
                550 Queen Anne Ave., 206-285-2134. Inexpensive. Open 11 am - 11 
                pm Sun through Thurs, 11 am - 12 midnight Fri/Sat.
                Many say this chain offers the best pizza in Seattle. You may 
                know them best for home delivery, but this is one of their three 
                sit-down locations. They do have other food options, but then 
                why would you?

              Box Dinner 
                at Gretchen's
                The Intiman Theatre has a special arrangement for box dinners 
                with Gretchen's ShoeBox Express. You must pre-order your dinner, 
                but then you can pick it up in the lobby; it's a good option if 
                you know you won't have a lot of time for a meal in a restaurant, 
                or you just don't want a big meal. Orders for fresh sandwiches 
                or salads may be placed until 9:00 a.m. on the day of performance 
                and will be available for pick-up in the lobby an hour and a half 
                before curtain. There are tables and chairs in the lobby or out 
                in the courtyard where you can eat. Call Gretchen's at 206-623-8194.
                Go to Gretchen's website.
