MICHAEL SWAN: GRITTYSHOOT â€" LABOR DAY WEEKEND IN TACOMA >>>
Spending Labor Day weekend enjoying the sights, sounds, tastes and smells from our own backyard:
Engine House No. 9
611 N. Pine St., Tacoma, 253.272.3435
Hours this weekend: Open until 2 a.m. Sunday 9:30 a.m. to midnight
Scene: No one on the patio. Twenty people inside watching the Coug game.
Wanting the beer garden atmosphere I stopped by Engine House No. 9 for a Tacoma Brew on their front patio (their outdoor courtyard is closed today).
Crickets.
Too freakin' cold.
We pounded our beers then headed inside for their special of the day â€" chicken pizza open-faced sandwich, which could be named Italian on a shingle: two large chicken breasts, pepperoni, mozzarella and marinara sauce on a slice of sourdough bread. Interesting â€" I actually recommend it.
I don't recommend sitting next to the three jackasses next to the courtyard entrance door. You're not funny. I can't believe your server didn't pop you in the face when you asked him, "Do you want your $12.50?" That's how you ask for a beer? Jackasses.
