Meg and I went out with a group of her friends she’s known for a number of years this evening to a place called Teatro ZinZanni, across from Seattle Center. To be honest, I wasn’t sure what to expect as I hadn’t really heard much of it nor been to to many dinner/shows like this.

When we arrived we met everyone and had a drink while waiting to be seated and then were escorted into a huge dining room made to look like a tent with a small center clearing. Sitting at the table, we had a small appetizer waiting and the menu of the dinner.

Its a five course meal with your choice of main dish, I chose the steak of course, Meg, the halibut. And then the fun started. There are acts during and between each course of the entire meal with audience participation. At times, I was laughing rather hard and by the end of the evening, my cheeks were sore from all the smiling and laughing that went on.

The mix of song, dance, comedy and cirque will more than entertain you over the three hour show. The combination of the show with a five course meal is more than worth the ticket price, which I starts at around $100 per person. This does not include drinks, pictures, and a $10 dining service charge. With twelve people, our bill came out to around $600 (and remember, the show had already been paid for).

But if you are looking for a night of fun, laughter, and lasting memories, I highly suggest this little place.
