Stop 3: Tacoma Sept. 22-23

Travel Day: Train from Portland to Tacoma. Checked in to hotel and then headed out to check the downtown area for a few hours. Ok, I thought there were hills in Portland.
Headed to Tacoma Cabana and arrived just after opening. Amy and Jason were behind the bar. Both rock big time. Place is a lot bigger than it looks with bottles of rum crammed everywhere. Amy was amazing behind the bar and then Jason found out I had liking to rhum agricole. After that I was in deep trouble. Jason would disappear for a few minutes then plunk a new drink in front of me. Jason is opening a new bar in November called the Devil’s Reef, at 706 Court C, Tacoma, very close (5-minute walk) from the Cabana’s location and a few of these drinks included previews off the new drink menu. Damn! Those drinks were fabulous. The food there is also killer btw.
