Seattle Trip

This past weekend Beer And Rap made a little trip up to the northwest. No particular reason just wanted to get out of SF for a minute. We got into town and decided to holler at some lunch. I parked the car and the first thing I saw was this:



The sign was taped to the inside the window so this guy has been displaying it to whatever neighbor hates him as a permanent reminder that he doesn't care. The truck was still taking up two parking spaces which just makes it even more of a fuck you.

For lunch we hit up Piroshki On Broadway. I like piroshkies and have fucked with them in SF and even in Seattle down by market, but nothing I've ever had could fuck with this spot. They were so fucking good, the bread was the best part. I copped the corn beef hash, mushrooms, and cheese.



We rolled through Everyday Music which was a few doors down and copped some shit. They were moving so tapes were two for one. I grabbed a few of those, some records and bass cds.


That night we hit up the War Room for Sing Sing. Pretty Titty and 4Colorzack are the homies so shit's always fun. That and Dave Nada was playing so I wanted to fuck with it. My last interaction with dude was in Austin and it mostly consisted of me yelling at him about how he has to stop the rave shit but since he has good mexican hair I liked him.




Afterwards Pretty Titty took us to some late night taco spot called Taco Gringos. It's some spot run by two guys who worked in restaurants and decided to fuck with tacos. Obviously this place isn't authentic but they got some dope shit. I tried the lengua off the strength and shit was champ. I also copped their rabbit taco and the roasted pork. The rabbit taco wasn't as weird as I thought it would be, but the tongue easily beat out all the other joints.

tongue and roasted pork

yeah these are blurry, but you're lucky I even have photos considering how faded I was.

Saturday we mostly chilled around the city, ate some cured meat, and hit up some bars




Saw Eddie and his lady Roslyn.

Saturday night Pretty Titty told me about this taco bus so Sunday we decided it was the wisest move to see what the fuck was up. The spot was called Tacos El Asadero and the shit was fucking intense. You order inside the bus and you can even eat in there but we sat under the tent and put in some work. I didn't think Seattle could rep mexican food but they got some shit up there that goes hard.



1 carnitas sopito

2 Pollo Mulitas

Went by the Seattle Art Musuem, they had a roman art exhibit. I only got some photos of this Cai Guo-Qiang installation in the lobby. Dude hung ten Ford Tauruses from the ceiling.
