KEN SWARNER: SOUTH SOUND SNACKS >>>
Row after row of cars lined up with everyday fans camped out under purple awnings or exposed to the open sky at last week’s Husky Stadium tailgater. Sitting on camping chairs, enjoying beer and wine that the police turn a blind eye to, and preparing traditional football fare known the country over â€" these die-hard foodie fans share in an international tradition known by many different names. These fans don’t skewer slugs on a stick or pass around a possum’s tail to gnaw on, but they will grill a mean bratwurst, boil a pot of meaty chili or pass around chips and a spicy bean dip.
In today’s Weekly Volcano I recommend several places to get great tailgate fare, but due to space, I left out the Crown Bar. The Crown Bar (2705 Sixth Ave., Tacoma) celebrates the snack world with tastes he discovered while traveling through foreign food markets. Stop by and grab the Charmoula beef to go â€" tender steak on skewers marinated in a North Africa sauce consisting mostly of cumin, clove, olive oil, and coriander â€" exceptional.
