Please call my cell phone, at 206-271-9042 if you need immediate assistance. The store phone is full and power keeps going on and off. We plan on being open this week, but if the weather is really bad, we are not anticipating many customers, and we will be closed. At least Wednesday maybe Thursday if the weather gets worse.

We will be open this weekend for sure. Hwy 2 is being plowed but still pretty messy here, and the future wind storm could take out power. If you have any questions you can call my cell number at 206-271-9042. Thanks! Keep warm & safe! Michele Brawn

Chris and I rarely go out for dinner. Because Chris loves to watch Gordon Ramsey's kitchen nightmares and Hell's Kitchen, he knows good food. Luckily he likes mine!(Or at least pretends he does).
