#509 - The Bahia Cabana, Ft. Lauderdale, FL - 10/5/2006

Fun. I've only been there during Hukilau tiki events so it's been wild when I've been there, but the gals working the bar lead me to believe it's a swell place generally.

#508 - DiVino, Seattle (Ballard) - 9/1/2006

Update:  Closed 2010

A growing number of wine bars was all but inevitable with Ballard's changing demographics. This swanky, modernist bar opened five days ago and is a nice stop on a crawl down Ballard Ave.

#506 - Dukes - Alki, Seattle - 8/25/2006

Dependable seafood, a great evening on the upper patio with the calypso/reggae band playing and the smell of fire pits drifting in from the beach.

#505 - White Eagle Saloon, Portland - 6/23/2006

White Eagle Saloon, Portland, OR - c.1905

White Eagle Saloon - One of Portland's oldest bars, now in familiar McMenamins decor and hosting some well known names in folk and blues type musical artists. "Famous for its nightly live music tradition and unlikely truths of record-breaking tequila consumption, ladies of the evening, Shanghai tunnels and residents of a rather more spectral nature ...," it's said to be not only haunted by hostile to psychics. I can state uneqivocably that my psychic powers were NOT effective in the place.
