If you happened to meander into Le Voyeur off Olympia’s Fourth Avenue, you might assume you were in just another eclectic restaurant serving handmade food. You’d see moms with their kids, couples having lunch, and friendly staff behind the line getting their hands dirty as they cooked up some grub.

My new friend Sam — the doorman at McCoy’s Tavern in Olympia — is definitely no one’s doormat, ifyaknowwhatImean. His entertaining abrasiveness, witty sarcasm, and gargantuous stature made Bandito Betty and I immediately welcome him into our warped world of sideshow humor. It all started as we made eyes with

Much like the critically acclaimed show Mystery Science Theater 3000, which openly ridiculed mediocre science-fantasy movies from 1988 to 1999, the newly formed Tacoma Cult Film Club will honor only the best B-movies one beat-up VCR can handle. Only this time you’re not alone on your Dorito-stained futon laughing at

Where, oh where do I start with this one? I want so badly to tell you about my new friend Sam, McCoy’s doorman. I want to tell you all about his past alcoholism, how he looks just like Seth Rogan, and mimic for you his incredibly funny one-liners. But I

Archibald Sisters is most definitely a necessary shopping stop when in Olympia — especially when you tend to be on the twisted, liberal and openly expressive end of the personality spectrum.

As Bandito Betty and I spent the day rousing up the relaxed downtown Olympia area, we had thrown ourselves into shopping exhaustion. Thus, a beer was in order. Known for hosting local bands within its hidden back room, 4th Ave Ale House & Eatery was something I had only seen

Back in the day, Frank’s Family Drive-In was located where one can now find Flip-N-Out Burgers on South 12th Street, across from the Mandolin Café. From about 1996 to 2004 owner Marti Fote occupied the space that is forever destined to house a greasy homemade burger joint. After 2004, Fote

I usually kick myself when I wait until the last minute to visit a bar for Bar Exam, but I’m glad I did so this week. My tardiness paid off this time by hitting Lakewood’s premier Irish bar, Maggie O’Tooles, on the day after St. Patrick’s Day. Why? Imagine how
