New BBQ place in Pasco, Washington: Don Victor's BBQ

I think my mom found out about it at work, someone told her that an old BBQ place on Lewis Street in Pasco, Washington called BBQ Express has finally been filled in by what else? Another BBQ place. The business is literally a little house in the middle of a plot of land, I'm not sure if there were other homes in this section of Pasco but it's the kind of place where if you drive past it, you'll miss it.

Nonetheless, I had visited BBQ Express once before it shut down as quick as I became aware of it, and that was over five years ago. The place had been vacant for years and now there's a new place called Don Victor's BBQ (1623 W. Lewis Street). I haven't tried it yet but I will very soon, but it has the Don Victor's logo... well, it's not really a logo, but the name of the place is spraypainted on the side of the building. Kinda lo-fi, but that's fine. It says they serve chicken and BBQ ribs.

I will definitely have a review and (hopefully) some photos very soon.

News: The Close Of Moililili Mochi & Candles

A lot of small places like this have been a staple of Honolulu for years, and sadly a lot of them are being closed down forever. Here's another.

News: Hawai'i On Tap

Hawai'i is not a place known for its beers, although local people will tell you they know how to party (OKOLE MALUNA!) That may be changing with a number of Hawaiian breweries wanting to make themselves known. Here's an article from the Honolulu Star-Bulletin telling you about the liquid refreshment that will hopefully generate a lot of interest outside of the islands.
