The Crackly Fried Chicken Oprah Had Flown Across The Country Comes From A Tiny Washington Takeout Counter

Oprah Winfrey once had fried chicken from a modest Washington takeout counter flown across the country. Yes, the same Oprah. The chicken traveled farther than most of us do on vacation. The skin is the real headliner here. It comes out crackly enough to make noise when you bite in.

Seattle’s Oldest Tavern Pours Beer And Fries Fish At The Central Saloon Like It Did In 1892

Back in 1892, Seattle was still rebuilding after a huge fire, and one small room opened its doors on a brick street that still welcomes guests more than 130 years later. Its walls later held a front-row seat to the grunge years, when bands that would shake the world played on a tiny stage there.

100 years ago today: Once a forest along Lake Ballinger, the Shriners made it their home

1926 was a transitional year between events for the United States, laid right in the middle of the 1898-1934 Banana Wars, and only three years before The Great Depression. Mountlake Terrace wasn’t technically affected by it, not because they were immune to the events of the time, but because it did not exist as the city that currently stands. Mountlake Terrace wasn’t formally a city until 1954, nearly 30 years later. Rather, current-day Mountlake Terrace was once a part of the larger Alderwood Manor.

10 Historical Battles That Were Fought in the Pacific Northwest

When most people think about the Pacific Northwest, they picture mountains, forests, coastal towns, and some of the country’s most beautiful scenery. Military history probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. But long before Seattle became a major city or eastern Washington’s farmland looked anything like it does today, the region was the site of several significant battles. Some were fought in places that thousands of people drive past every day without knowing what happened there.
