#1530 - Club Sno - Snoqualmie Casino Lounge, Snoqualmie, WA - 7/30/2011
Not my kind of crowd, not my kind of vibe, not great cocktails, but worth a visit for the view.

#1529 #S906 - Fine Diner, Seattle - 7/30/2011
"Fine Diner International Cuisine" was a strange placed that was open for just 2 months in the space of the former Seattle Crab Co. and the short-lived La Bera Cafe. The space now hosts Patty's Eggnest.
The Fine Diner was an odd affair. The decor was very sparse -- big, blank, green walls; and when we visited, there was a portable stereo blaring 70s hits (e.g. "We Will Rock You"). The food was of generous portions and reasonably good, though not what one would typically envision from the phrase "fine dining." Cocktails were of the most basic sort.
It's regrettable when someone's new business doesn't work out, but in some cases it's less surprising than others.

#1528 - The Sports Page Grill and Bar, Snohomish, WA - 7/23/2011
Update: The Sports Page was replaced in this location by the 907 Grill in 2012
The Sports Page Grill and Bar apparently now goes by Snohomish Spirits and Sports, says it was established in 2010, but that is only the start under the new owners. It has live music and is packed and lively on Friday and Saturday nights.

#1525 #S904 - Kathy's Pizza, Grill and Sports Bar, Seattle - 7/23/2011
Update: Kathy's closed in late 2015.
Kathy's is a large bar and restaurant in the former All Nations Soccer Bar space -- what was once Seattle's first Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor. The woman who waited on me was not Kathy but Michelle, whose brother is the owner and was married to Kathy, recently passed away. The family run homage to Kathy serves pretty standard pub or family diner style food to a crowd of neighborhood sports fans.

#1524 #S903 - The Forge Lounge, Seattle - 7/21/2011
The Forge Lounge sits in a small space off the pedestrian overpass to the ferry dock along Marion. Established by two firefighters, it has an industrial, working-man theme. But it doesn't serve the Bud Lites and fried food of your average blue-collar dive bar. Instead it has creative sandwiches and cocktails, and a funky, intimate vibe which fits brilliantly into the old waterfront. Having a bar with this much personality is certainly a welcome addition to the downtown area.

#1522 #S902 - Pizzeria 22, Seattle - 7/18/2011
Cary Kemp worked in a pizzeria on Via Tribulani in Naples, then helped launch the the Neapolitan, wood-fired pizza trend in Seattle. He's recently had a mobile Neapolitan oven, and now he has a place of his own in West Seattle, around the corner from Yen Wor Village, and it is very much in the VT mold (including some of the dramatic Mt. Vesuvius paintings that briefly graced the Via Tribulani in the Crocodile).

#1520 - Billy Ray's Neighborhood Dive, Portland OR - 7/18/2011
Billy Ray's has two fairly distinct parts. The ground floor is a pretty classic dive bar, the kind that caters to oldtimers and hipsters at the same time. But once you ascend the stairs to the second floor, you're suddenly in the game room of your childhood friend with the coolest dad -- decked out in video games, old couches, and paintings of scary clowns and other odd creatures.

#1519 - The Chapel Pub, Portland OR - 7/18/2011
As they do, McMenamins remodeled a great old building here into a nice neighborhood pub -- in this case what was previously the "Little Chapel of the Chimes," nee "Wilson-Chambers Mortuary," a former funeral home in Portland's Piedmont neighborhood. There is a sort of vestibule, a main room with a bar, a couple additional rooms and a nice patio (the upper floor is McMenamin's headquarters). It may seem a little formulaic at times, but God bless 'em for saving and restoring all these great old spaces for the northwest public.
If you've ever been to a McMenamin's, you know what you're in for. If you have not been to a McMenamin's, expect some pretty good beers brewed by the company, some funky artwork and decor, and better than average pub food.

#1517 - The Twilight Room, Portland OR - 7/17/2011
The Twighlight Room is celebrating it's 50th anniversary this year, but that's only under the current management. It is said to have been established in the late 40s and owner Doug Penner was a bartender here himself going back to 1949. He and his twin brother purchased the bar in 1961, and over the following years expanded it four times, incorporating a former barbershop, refrigeration shop, and insurance business.
So it is now a pretty large place, and a comfortable neighborhood bar for both college students and local old timers.

#1512 - Marathon Taverna, Portland OR - 7/15/2011
A large bar with a curious mixture of classic dive bar patrons and 22-yo girls. Chatted with Steve, who was reading a book at the bar, and has been coming here since '68 or '69, when it was The Acropolis.
