Slow, but steady

Yes, it's been a wholelotta monotony around Tukwila lately... we'd rather not bore our readers with - "went to Blue C" or "went to Taco Del Mar" day after day.

Some notable updates:
- The Taco Queen is still missing.
- DeDe has put in for a transfer to the U-Village Blue C, but apparently it's such a popular spot to work, she'll need to wait for someone to die before she can move.

B and I did go to the Jack Shack yesterday - I was craving tacos with girth. However, we sat on the dining side, rather than the bar side (aka: slut side) of the restaurant, so our server didn't mention girth, nor was he (emphasis on gender) dressed in a way that inspired us to think he works the late, late shift on Aurora. The dining side of Joey's is like any other eatery, it's when you go to the bar side that the atmosphere changes into something that resembles the movie set of Coyote Ugly.

I suppose we should spice it up a bit so we'll have something to write about. What we need are more suggestions. Is there a place in Tukwila that you've been wanting to try, but haven't? Send us there! Have you been to a place where the food is great, but the service/atmosphere/location is laughable? Tell us!

Having worked in Tukwila for the past 8 years, we're always looking for new haunts. If you know of a place that we should try out - let us know!

What the Pho, What the Pho please oh please try out What the Pho. It's over in the Southcenter area near ceFiore. I haven't made it there yet but last week I saw people coming/going I think it's finally open. And what about lunch at ACME one day? I hear their sliders are down right decent. And please oh please try Bullwinkle's at the Family Fun Center. Yes for lunch. I suggest the Chicken Caesar Salad w/ the tasty breadstick. But I really think you should ride the Screamin' Swing before lunch. Key advice there, BEFORE Lunch. Don't ride the ride after lunch...bad idea. Would love to see video or hear B's take on the Screamin' Swing as well as the food.

Tummy Tukwila Top Moments

I'm snowed in and am dreaming of eating out, even in Tukwila (it's the cabin fever). Here's my personal countdown of the Top Tummy Tukwila Moments of 2008. Drum Roll....... #5. No more Sushi Land! Southcenter Mall reopens complete with a Blue C Sushi. Blue C is the Tummy Tukwila lunch savior. Blue C (and DeDe)....we love you! #4. The Psychic Paleontologist at Taco Del Mar. R and I witnessed the unsettling archeological dig at the serving line. This is also the woman who licked her burrito. The downside.....the Taco Queen is MIA. :( #3. Discovering a safe and natural Yeast Infection Cure . Thanks to the Birdkiller's super reading skills, B and R learn that yogurt at ceFiore is effective in the global fight against deadly (or at least uncomfortable) yeast. #2. The Trip . After an uneventful food court lunch, R decides to spice things up by unleashing a hip and horrifying tripping detonation. It was like the Energizer Bunny…it went on and on and on...... #1. Southcenter ...

The Jack Shack

We've all been either too busy or too lazy to write about our lunchtime adventures, but know this - we have had lunches - some were fabulous, others were sadly disappointing (Mali Thai) and at least one was down-right scandalous (Joey's). So to make up for the long absence, I'll thrill you with our adventure to: Joeys (their apostrophe is missing, not mine)... Even though I was warned , I had to see it for myself. Joey's is Cowboy Ugly and the Pussy Cat Dolls Lounge all rolled into one, great-big southend jack shack. To get the full effect, we sat in the bar where all the waitresses are 1. Former female strippers, 2. Current female strippers, and 3. Really know how to sex up an entree so you'll want to buy it. At first, I was overcome with the smart, sleek interior design. I felt like I was at The Parker in Palm Springs . The architecture is open and modern, the colors hip, and the booths are sleek. I was so busy ogling the fabulous design that I didn't even s...
