BABBLIN' BABS BISTRO: They've been known to serve French toast stuffed with mascarpone cheese and pumpkin purée with rum soaked raisins, spiced egg custard and grilled to a golden orange brown.
>>> VOTING CLOSED FOR MARCH 15 <<<
Two years ago, the Weekly Volcano challenged 64 taco slingers to enter tournament-style culinary combat, shell versus shell, with Moctezuma's crowned best taco. Last year, pizza took center-stage in our quest for gustatory greatness, with Katie Downs pie reigning supreme. This year, the tradition continues.
It's breakfast time, baby!
Beginning today, 64 well-buttered competitors (for the most part) will tip off and do battle - working their way through the tediously constructed bracket and toward ultimate supremacy.
We speak, of course, of the Weekly Volcano's Tournament of Breakfast, which kicks off this morning right here on Spew. Sixty-four area breakfast joints were selected and seeded by readers throughout February, and now the time has come to see who's best. Only one can be crowned king - so vote early, and DAILY here on Spew. Use the bracket attached to his post to guide you through the daily matchups.
Then, on April 2, join us at the Meconi's Pub in downtown Tacoma for the Official Tournament of Breakfast Party - our winner will be announced during halftime of the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship game.
The daily breakfast battles here on Spew are sponsored by Shakabrah Java on Tacoma's Sixth Avenue.
OK, let's check out today's First Round breakfast battles. Vote for one breakfast joint per battle. Voting for today's breakfast battles ends at 11:45 p.m.
Game 1: Norma's Burgers (7210 Martin Way E., Olympia) vs. Eastside Big Tom (2023 Fourth Ave. E., Olympia)
Game 2: Sage's Brunch House (903 Rogers St. NW, Olympia) vs. Budd Bay Cafe (525 Columbia St. NW, Olympia)
Game 3: River's Edge (4611 Tumwater Valley Dr. SW, Olympia) vs. Hawk's Prairie Restaurant (8306 Quinault Dr. NE, Lacey)
Game 4: Black Bear Diner (955 Black Lake Blvd. SW, Olympia) vs. Red Wind Casino (12819 Yelm Hwy., Lacey)

Marcias by far is the best. Portions are unreal and I've had nothing I didn't like.
