Bonkers in Ballard? Nah, just hungry for Zesto's (oh the fish & homemade chowder) and soaking up the old time feeling in town. Also a nod to Ballard's sister city in Norway; Bergen. Ballard is charming with old time flavor retained and restored. Art, bistros, Italian and Indian restaurants, trendy but earthy shopping, and a Scandinavian flavor throughout. Ballard became a city in 1890 - no wonder it has the flavor! Another visit soon, I hope.
