Minute Reads_1 or 2 minute.png

Ted Wenta from Snohomish County YMCA has been in Everett since 1995, and has seen the city grown and change. See what places around town he enjoys in this Five Fast Favorites from his episode of the Live in Everett Podcast, and don’t forget to listen to the whole episode here.

1. FAVORITE PLACE TO EAT?

Anthony's HomePort (on the deck)

Nothing beats eating a delicious meal on the water on a beautiful day, and Anthony's delivers, especially around this time of year. 

2. FAVORITE PLACE TO DRINK?

Anthony's HomePort / Lombardi's Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar

Our guess is that if you want to see Ted, just hang out by the waterfront. He likes to have a drink at Lombardi's when Music at the Marina is happening (Thursday and Saturday starting June 28), and we do too. 

3. WATCH THE SUNSET?

Jetty Island

Oh hey it isn't Grand Avenue Park this week! Jetty Island is one of Everett's hidden gems. Hitch a quick ferry ride out to the island with a picnic in tow and you've got one of the best things you can do in Everett, Snohomish County or even the whole PNW. 

4. FAVORITE WORD TO DESCRIBE EVERETT?

Future-oriented

It's hyphenated. It's one word. 

5. FAVORITE THING TO DO WHEN YOU HAVE FREE TIME?

Spend time with my wife
