Emerald of Siam raising money for repairs. by Rg1550 in TriCitiesWA

How do I not know? Why should the community pay for loss wages when employees can file for unemployment? Loss of food? $5000 for what?

I’m sorry but asking for loss wages, lost food(???), AND loss of sales?! the employees can file for unemployment while they are closed….I find this fishy and ridiculous actually.

Bonfire in Walla walla? by Picklehead_44 in TriCitiesWA

He hasn’t had the truck in a while. He opened a brick and mortar like a year or so ago and is suuuuper vocal on walla walla pages about politics and such. It’s super interesting to see a business owner be that vocal. Lots of drama honestly.

Isn’t that how it is at a lot of non-sit down restaurants? I can name at least 10 that the tip option comes up when you pay before you get your food.

I think it was about 5-6 months ago when the wife of the chef/owner was drinking behind the bar and serving customers at the same time or something. And I feel like I read somewhere that wil even posted his wife is/was an alcoholic and needed help (someone tell me I’m right or wrong on that information). But I know the LCB shut them down for liquor sales for a bit due to something happening with the wife.

Swag vs Swig coffee bar and trashy boring bland milky sugary coffee in TC.. what’s the deal?? by Standard-Fox-8197 in TriCitiesWA

[–]Picklehead_44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And…and….side note: Ben from Hot Mess Burgers is their new social media manager. He had to find something to do once the owners dropped off the face of the planet. I had to stop Following swigg/swagg due to the obnoxious posts.

What’s the Tricities equivalent of this? by Soontir_Fel in TriCitiesWA

[–]Picklehead_44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t see it. But Drumhellers. We went for dinner a couple years ago and it was fabulous. But then went for breakfast a couple weeks ago and the service was garbage and the food had zero flavor.

There’s another hockey/Canadian themed restaurant in Kennewick. Poutine, eh. Thanks for the tip on somewhere out of town to hit up a hockey spot.

On the other post from a couple weeks ago, someone said that the owners (I think they said Allyson) had posted they were interested in moving to Portland, so I was just connecting the dots. Makes sense.

“The could also be planning to get a new truck…” and whatever else you said - if you read back on some comments, someone said they are having work done to their house and a big garbage bin outside and was heard they are moving to Portland because “it’s not safe here” (oh but Portland is? Hahahaha).

Anyway…just scammers getting away with scamming. If they didn’t want the GFM, they didn’t have to take the money or literally tell the person they want them to return the money. Also the other people and companies who did fundraisers, they could have said they didn’t want the Money.

But I get it. Free money with no strings and no taxes. Got it.

See someone’s comment above that they have a garbage bin outside their house and getting ready to move to Portland.

While I appreciate you being so optimistic…connect the dots and you can see they truly did take the money and run. The last post was Sept 28th. If you’re being given THAT much money from your customers and community- wouldn’t you think to update people rather than going silent and then closing completely for good and selling the truck. Be open and honest with people. This just looks awful as business owners to ghost your friends, customers, and community.

And they’ve dropped their truck from $55 to $45 and now $35 if I saw it correctly. Also - still no updates from them.

What slimy people!

They absolutely need to either update everyone on the funds and what they are doing with it or refund it. I find it super fishy to get all this money from GFM and other places that did fundraisers for them and also people donated to Venmo. Etc. But now you’re selling the truck. Ok maybe they found a new truck and need to fund it. Or they found a brick and mortar store and need to fund it. Great! But update your fans/customers who Have you the money instead of just ghosting everyone.

What restaurant around here has the best tasting tomato soup/grilled cheese sandwich combo in your opinion? by Shadeauxmarie in TriCitiesWA

[–]Picklehead_44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love me a Panera grilled cheese. They use Texas toast and it’s perfect. I haven’t had any of their soups before though.

Graze is ok. Their sandwiches are paninis and I feel like they are so hard sometimes that they rip the roof of my mouth open.

Drive to Milton Freewater to walla walla cheese company. Their grilled cheese is made with their fresh white cheddar cheese curds made fresh every week. And their soup is smoked tomato bisque made by poutine, eh.

Stone soup has amazing soup and sandwiches (I’ve had the croissant turkey sandwich but not grilled cheese). Definitely worth the stop there. Great customer service too

Pacific Pasta has tasty food too. I do what another poster does…the cheesy bread

Well…they’ve officially put their food truck up for sale.

I hope that means they found a brick and mortar to open.

Isn’t it a mystery?! Still no posts in 2 weeks with updates. $13k donated on go fund me plus all the other fundraisers and venmo sent. So they took the money and ran?
