This week's drink special was created by CC the Warrior

I love CC because she is strong, independent, kind & caring. I've known her for over 5 years, and hope to know her for many many more. She is incredibly smart, and is one of those people you can have a deep conversation with or just joke around with about silly things...

This Week's Drink Special:

CC's Elderflower Lemon Drop -- Tito's, elderflower, fresh lemon juice, simple with a sugar rim & edible flowers

This Week's Food Special:

Fresh Asian Spring Roll Salad -- a deconstructed spring roll salad tossed in a Thai vinaigrette with our house peanut sauce. choice of BBQ pork, shrimp, or a combo of BBQ pork & shrimp

Just a reminder that we have over 500+ free parking spaces in the parking garage below our bar. They close access into the garage late at night, but we have a key to access the garage, and the garage doors automatically open on exit. There is also street parking that is free after 6pm, and all day Sunday
..also, our patio is open for the change in weather, and we do have blankets available for the colder nights

One thing I love about our front-of-the-house team is they are constantly playing with ingredients and coming up with some amazing cocktails
..and if you're lucky enough to be sitting at the bar while they're experimenting, then you've probably been given a taste and asked what you think

This Week's Drink Special is a creation from Mee Yeong the Kindhearted:

Mee's Strawberry Spritzer -- bourbon, strawberry, lemon, honey, topped with prosecco

This Week's Food Special ...a creation from Malaty:

Salmon Wellington -- 6oz salmon filet, creamy spinach & parmesan cheese in a puff pastry, with hollandaise sauce. served with red & yellow baby roasted potatoes
..also, since I get asked a lot, an update on Malaty's health...

As many know, Malaty was diagnosed with Stage 4 Breast Cancer in 2019

It has been an up-and-down rollercoaster for her. But she is incredibly strong and has fought with everything she has, along with the amazing staff at Tacoma General and her oncologist Dr. Blair Irwin, for whom I am forever thankful. Dr. Irwin has been a miracle worker for Malaty, thanks to her complete dedication & hardwork

We had to sell our first bar in 2023 because Malaty's last treatment option stopped working. Dr. Irwin did some testing, and after realizing Malaty's cancer had mutated, was able to go back to a previous cancer treatment that had originally stopped working

Malaty had been on that treatment for almost 3 years, by far the longest a treatment had worked, but it recently stopped working. Things looked very bleak. Dr. Irwin prescribed Malaty a new experimental-trial treatment. At first, it didn't seem to be working, but her last tumor markers have dropped drastically and have shown signs the treatment is working ...although the side effects are brutal on Malaty

She is the strongest person I know, and she continues to fight. She is extremely grateful for the bar and all that it brings to her life. She is grateful for Michelle & Bill, our amazing staff, and most of all the support she has gotten from all of you

Also, since many have asked...

An update on Harlee the Most Handsome, our bar mascot. A few week's ago Harlee went in for a routine surgery to get neutered. His pre-surgery physical checked out well

Unfortunately, during surgery Harlee had a bad reaction to the anesthesia and his heart stopped for 2 to 3 minutes. The doctor said this is rare and happens less than 2% of the time

The doctors were able to revive him with CPR, which again the doctor says happens less than 2% of the time. He was in a coma state for a bit, and after awakening, had a rough couple of weeks as he didn't get oxygen to his brain for 2 to 3 minutes

The staff at Fircrest Veterinary Hospital, and Dr. Eugenio, have been amazing in trying to get Harlee back healthy, even coming in on their days off to give him fluids & treatment

Malaty & I hand feed him every day, and we work with him on learning to walk again. He struggles but every few days we see small improvements

Anyone who has met Harlee knows he is an incredibly happy & loving dog. We are hoping & praying for the best, and doing everything we can to help him
