I met Tristan when he was first opening up at the Ruston Waterfront and he's become my go-to for…read moresalmon! So, here's the deal: Tristan sources his salmon from local tribes. You're buying salmon that was sustainably caught by natives and smoked or cured by natives. All of the salmon is frozen as soon as possible so you're getting it as fresh as Tristan can manage. The candied salmon and smoked salmon are fantastic. But, the one thing I grab every time I'm at the Ruston Marketplace is his salmon dip. It's like salmon crack. Next time you need a side of salmon for the grill hit up Tristan and see what's available. Grab some dip to munch on while you're grilling. You won't be disappointed. Just learned today that Tristan will be offering a subscription service in 2024! Looking forward to that.

Tacoma deserved this because driving to pike place is cool but we needed our own and we now finally have it. And not to be basis or anything because like place market is part of Washington culture but this point Ruston farmers market has the potential to be its own pike place and bonus it doesn't have a ton of trash all around, stench and just is 10x cleaner. But I love a good farmers market and here you can find everything from crafts to produce, meats, flowers, just speciality foods and so much more. It was so fun to see. I'm a huge bagel baker so I had to stop at the Seattle baking bakery stand because they had a ton of cream cheeses and so much more. Then another stand that caught my eye was the fresh cheese stand. Bathrooms here were spotless as well. There is a 2 hour free parking which almost isn't enough because there's also the waterfront and a playground for kids and tons of restaurants and other stores nearby. But you can pay for additional time. Some stands did seem a bit overpriced but you have to remember they have to pay a huge fee to be able to sell here so it's understandable. It wasn't overly crowded and I just can't wait to go back and explore some more.

The space feels roomy, though somewhat dimly lit and sterile. Pricing is decent and competitive with PCC and Whole Foods. It does not have as many local products as the Seattle store, fresh bread in particular. They do carry some unique products like corn tortillas made in Shelton and baguettes from Vashon. Overall, I like this chain but prefer the Seattle store for selection.

It's right here in Tacoma. Parking is street parking but easy enough if you head out early. The inside of this epic brick establishment looks as if it were there for years but it's fresh and new. Laureen, the owner, greeted my husband and I, the first time we tried it. She is the sweetest and so down to earth. Expect a long line because this place is amazing. The cashiers are all so patient and you never feel rushed. I love that so much, especially when you're new to a spot. We ordered some kolachees, personal sized quiches focaccia and cinnamon rolls. They were so delicious. I'm so impressed. I've been back a few times and plan to return. I've even recommended it to my friends in Seattle as well. I heard that people from all over Washington come to buy. It's THAT good. I'm so grateful to have this so close to me.

After checking in, I would suggest waiting to go up as your whole party. I went up without my friend, who was in the restroom, and they, at first, wouldn't let her come up without another group needing to come up. I had all her things so I had no way of knowing and was waiting for her up on the rooftop for quite some time. The dinner was good. I tried the focaccia, feta dip and crostini, the braised short ribs, and the double chocolate skillet cookie. The foccacia was good but I wish there had been butter or maybe oil and vinegar. It was a bit plain on its own but my friend ate it with her lasagna so it worked out. I really enjoyed the feta dip. It was quite tasty. I know crostinis are supposed to be hard but I found it to be too hard. I really enjoyed the braised short ribs. The meat was tender and was well seasoned. I liked the mashed potatoes which weren't perfectly smooth which is something I prefer and there was a little bit of potato skin. I wish there had been just a tad more sauce for the potatoes. The double chocolate chiller cookie was so good especially if you're a fan of chocolate. It was rich but too sweet and the ice cream that came with it was delicious as well that was slightly coconutty. There is kind of a time limit for your reservation as they ask you to limit your time to 90 minutes on their website. We came on a Friday night and they had live music which was such a great vibe for the rooftop. Because you're outside, I would recommend bringing a coat or something just in case.

Pretty disappointing brunch, especially for a $30 meal…read more We came in to celebrate a birthday and unfortunately had a pretty disappointing experience with the service. My eggs benedict arrived cold, and the English muffin was so tough that I had to ask for a steak knife just to cut through it. When I mentioned to our server that the meal was cold, she said it was because of the lox. That didn't really explain why the eggs, hollandaise, and English muffin were also cold. She did bring me a replacement, which was actually warm. Unfortunately, the service continued to be disappointing. Our server brought the wrong sides and never apologized or corrected the mistake. She said she would bring out the correct sides, but they never arrived. We were a party of seven, and throughout the meal it felt like our table was an afterthought which is especially frustrating because a 20% gratuity was automatically added. To make matters worse, they brought out a dessert for the birthday that the birthday girl was allergic to even though she had made her gluten allergy known when she initially ordered her meal. Overall, this was a profoundly suck-ass experience. For a roughly $30 entrée, I expected much better food, service, and attention to detail.

Parking is a pain as you probably have to fine parking 1-2 blocks out and walking there but it's not too bad.
