Rendezvous

Nick in People’s Park across the street from Tempest

Nick and I were missing each other like crazy earlier this week, so we decided to meet in Tacoma for dinner. I picked Tempest, which is owned and run by Tom Douglas’s sister. I’d heard fantastic things about her cocktail concoctions and the food was well-priced.

Little did we know that it was located in the heart of Tacoma’s infamous Hilltop neighborhood or that Tempest was a gay bar. Neither turned us off of the place - it really was a fantastic neighborhood bar. It did, however, add to the adventure of rendezvous.
