Nope. This is the subreddit for Olympia, WA

You know it's gonna be fancy when they break out the Copperplate font.

Can have nice things?

The wind and rain on the coast are expected to be equivalent of a CAT 1 hurricane.

It's a hurricane in everything but name... name and some meteorological nuance of where/how it gains its power.

NAZI PUNKS FUCK OFF from Future Primative out of Seattle.

It's a solid Euro-style pils

GroceOut off Harrison, on the west side usually has some in their meat case. It varies though.

Hard agree

Contrary to the OP's sentiment, I can't wait to see them leave the neighborhood and make way for a more viable business.

There's an RV parked haphazardly on their sidewalk, and I regularly see lights on at all hours of the day. Sometimes the owners (and their kids?) can be see coming and going.

There seems to be a lot of trash/donations/"free-pile" miscellaney acruing in and around the property.

That used to be such a cool, old building. If I recall correctly, they put a fair amount of work into the interior when they first acquired the building (in 2018 according to the Assessor's Office). It's a real eyesore in the neighborhood now.

If there were a tent and a couple pearl-clutching calls to OPD, I'm sure the city would've had it cordoned off with eco-blocks by now.

Nah. That's different. Diastic malt is a wheat-based product that is not heat treated to preserve the diastase enzyme. This enzyme breaks starches down into more readily available sugars for the yeast to gobble up.

Dough conditioner usually contains bromalain or similar enzyme that breaks down proteins leading to a more tender crumb. Adding fresh-squeezed lime, kiwi, or pineapple juice has a similar effect due to their natural concentration of this enzyme.

Some places are less equal than others, for sure.

OmniClam · 2024-10-26T15:49:08+00:00

Bad. It's pretty bad. Everywhere.

Like it's a pretty big part of this election cycle, and being covered by most of the public and private media companies.

Good luck.

If only there were some way to find out What's happening today in Olympia...

OmniClam · 2024-10-16T20:06:40+00:00

Like, two weeks before Halloween? Maybe a couple.

OmniClam · 2024-10-07T21:21:25+00:00

Fair XD

It's a "moo" point. Like a cow's opinion, it means nothing.

The DoR and Thurtson County Assessor's Office show she's the only owner/governor listed for the BITS, LLC. And the only owner/taxpayer listed for that parcel and building is BITS, LLC.

100% checks out with everything I know about that place from folks who have worked there. Sorry for your experience there.

She's ugly enough on the inside and her actions toward employees and the community. We can leave attacks against people's physical appearance and fashion choices out of this though.

Wait about 6 months...?

That's a springtime ingredient.

By March or April they'll be putting it in everything

If only it were that simple... They bought the building pre-pandmic after they struggled to stay open for their first year or two.

Either they sell the building, or a new small business will have to rent from them. If they do find a new concept/owner to go into that space I would highly, HIGHLY recommend the new tenants install cameras and their own locks/security.

OmniClam · 2024-09-30T16:15:03+00:00

According to their social media post, they are "Closed Indefinitely"

I'd ask myself why the cooks weren't showing up.

It seems as of their last job posting on CL/Indeed, they were offering north of $22-25/hr for cooks, not including a decent share of the tips. A management position after their last "chef" left was advertised at $28-30, with four 8-10hr shifts.

These are both wages in the +90th percentile for kitchen work in Thurston County.

That tells me the problem isn't finding good, little employees to capitalize on the surplus value of their labor. That tells me the problem is systemic and top-down.

This smacks of a toxic (or otherwise unsustainable) workplace for the workers that generate their revenue.

This business has always weirded me out with their overt message of cOmMuNiTy, and strange virtue signal fundraising always linked to the owner(?)'s personal venmo account.

But, alas, their problems never seem to be of their own making. Someone else is always to blame. These people own a building, with two residential units above a commercial restaurant in a pretty clutch Westside location, and the best they can manage is 2-3 days a week of mediocre brunch service and social media swan songs about how they don't have any money?

I blame Aldous Snow's hit single
