10 Tacoma Restaurants That Will Knock Your Socks Off

Google

1. Marcia's Silver Spoon Cafe

My Dad and I discovered this greasy diner last year and the biscuits and gravy are unlike any other. This place is for you if you love brunch and perfectly browned hash browns.

2. Montemara Kitchen

This quaint little eatery offers breakfast and lunch. Although famous for their eggs benedict, their salads are delicious and hard to find elsewhere in Tacoma.

3. Silk Thai

The best Thai food in Tacoma! Silk Thai offers a candle lit setting and an array of delicious curries for a great meal off campus! Not to mention, it sure hits the spot on a rainy day!

4. Pho Tai

Another thing perfect for a rainy day is a bowl of Pho! This hot soup is amazing for a quick bite off campus and great for those on a budget.

5.TheKOI

You thought Trapper's was good? You thought wrong. This sushi is the freshest in Tacoma and my favorite restaurant around. Try the Salmon Lovers Roll, it's amazing!

6. Savor Creperie

Who doesn't love crepes? This cute little cafe is great for a grab and go kind of meal and serves both savory and sweet crepes.

7. Shake Shake Shake

Craving something greasy to soak up that hangover? Shake Shake Shake is sure to please. Don't skip out on the milkshakes here, you'll regret it.

8. La Fondita

Since I'm from California, Mexican food is something that I crave. La Fondita offers authentic cuisine and their enchilada sauce is amazing.

9. Cafe Brosseau

Cafe Brosseau is a cute little cafe right off of Puget Sound's campus. It serves small bites, amazing lattes, and their avocado toast is something special.

10. Duke's Chowder House

Duke's Chowder House is by far the best waterfront Seafood in Tacoma. This place is amazing and serves seafood from local fisherman. Duke's is a perfect treat after a long week of tests and papers.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

728

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
