This Washington Family Butcher Has Been Hand-Cutting Steaks And Smoking Bacon Since 1972, And Locals Skip The Supermarket For It

Raspberry jalapeño bacon burgers. Korean BBQ pepperoni sticks. Alligator meat. All of it comes from one family butcher counter in a quiet corner of Washington farm country. The shop has been cutting meat since 1972. It still wraps custom orders in plastic and butcher paper, the same way it always has.

This Family Barbecue Joint in an Old Washington Auto Garage Only Serves Lunch, and the Brisket Sandwiches Need Extra Napkins

A hot sauce so fierce it has its own nickname, and you have to ask to meet it. They call it The Man, and it gets spooned out of a small, well-used pot like a family treasure. The sauce lives inside a converted auto garage in Washington, close to a busy freeway. The kitchen only serves lunch, so timing matters.

Crispy Fried Oysters Come Heaped In Paper Boats At These 10 Washington Seafood Counters

At one oyster bar on Hood Canal, the fried oysters get tossed in buffalo sauce seasoned with kelp. Seaweed in the hot sauce. I needed a minute with that one. It turns out Washington takes its fried oysters seriously, even at places where you order at a counter and grab your own napkins. One spot coats them in crushed saltines.

Dine Inside A Beautifully Restored Train Car At This Unique Washington Restaurant

I’d like to respectfully point out that a 1906 railcar once carried railroad executives as a private car. Today it serves eggs. Roughly 12,000 of them a month, if I may say so. That seems worthy of a little admiration. The car spent sixty years as a diner in...

Dinner Comes Out Of A Century-Old Firehouse Kitchen At This Washington Restaurant

The fire engines are long gone, but the original brick walls from 1907 are still standing around your burger. Firefighter gear from the old days stays on display, so dinner comes with a side of history. I like how this Washington spot never tried to erase its past. Instead, it...

Nobody Wants a McDonald’s in Chinatown

McDonald’s wants to put a new store in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District (CID). Almost nobody thinks that’s a good idea. They are decidedly not loving it. Last night, about 80 CID residents and supporters packed the meeting of the International Special Review District (ISRD), the neighborhood’s historic preservation board. Impassioned public comments, handmade protest signs in Chinese and English, and several people in Ronald McDonald-esque clown masks injected the typically sleepy meeting with life.

McDonald's Proposal Targets Chinatown-ID Corner With Bamboo Look, No Drive-Thru

A proposal to bring a new McDonald's to Seattle's Chinatown-International District would fill a long-vacant storefront at Fourth Avenue South and South Jackson Street with a dine-in and takeout restaurant that skips the drive-thru altogether. The plan calls for Chinese-language branding and bamboo-colored architectural touches meant to echo the neighborhood's character, and it heads to a city review board this week.
