Bubble Room's Ginger Ale-plus
I broke down. I couldn't bring myself to ask for the bartender's special - the inevitable, fruity tropical multi-booze laden drink decorated with a spear of day old fruit. I went with a new standard of whiskey and ginger ale. Most bars don't have ginger ale on the gun, and that's fine with me. I enjoy ginger ale by itself, and I really love some whiskey. A handmade ginger ale consists of coke, sprite and a splash of bitters. Sometimes bartenders get carried away and add a squeeze of lemon, which is OK, but unnecessary. Served in a normal short tumbler, Alfred's version was tasty and took the edge off - exactly what I want in a cocktail after a ridiculous day of pushing papers, sending and receiving faxes and talking to people on the phone about matters I couldn't care about. The Bubble Room is a multifaceted establishment: restaurant, '50s style diner and swank lounge area all rolled into one. It's a good place to take a date or possibly (hopefully for me) meet one over cocktails and jazz on the weekends. I'm told the jazz music of the Mike Nelson Trio brings in some classy dames, but I intend to see for myself. Alfred's Cafe and Bubble Room, 402 Puyallup Ave., Tacoma (253) 627-5491.
