"Check, Please! Northwest" features local diners, not professional restaurant critics. Each week three guests dine out at and discuss their favorite restaurants.
If you would like to tell our viewers about your favorite local eatery (restaurant, supper club, diner, lunch cafe, dive, hole-in-the-wall, stand, etc.) on "Check, Please!," let us know!
