Hash on the Westside


In addition to good bourbon, I love a great breakfast spot! Unfortunately, there are few real breakfast joints in town. Luckily for us a new spot opened in West Olympia called Hash. Hash opened up over the summer and has been packed ever since! The menu is simple and has something for everyone, including kids, and offers several vegan plates.

We went in for Sunday breakfast around 10:30 am and the restaurant was packed with many names on the waiting list. We sat outside and enjoyed the summer sun until our table was ready. The staff were polite and quick. Once seated we got our drinks and looked over the menu. The smells and atmosphere was chill. As we pondered over what to order a huge piece of cornbread delivered to our table! It was interesting, almost like a cornbread cake with strawberry whipped butter. We decided on our orders; the Mojado Burrito and the Traditional Benedict.

The Mojado Burrito is a wheat tortilla full of scrambled eggs, applewood smoked ham, green chilies, refried bean, Yukon gold potatoes and smoked gouda wrapped up and topped with a jalapeno hollandaise. Everything about this burrito was amazing, not to mention its ginormous size! The jalapeno hollandaise, was creamy with just a hint of heat. This was definitely a fork and knifer with a perfect ratio of all ingredients from start to finish.

The Traditional Benedict was of equal standard delivered with a side of Yukon gold potatoes sautéed with onions and peppers. Nothing out of the ordinary about this meal but the preparation was perfect. The poached eggs were just done and the ham was nice and thick. Although it is traditional, they managed to make it their own flavor, as it was topped on an English muffin with refried beans as the glue.

If you are out and about and find yourself in West Olympia, Wednesday through Sunday between 7am and 1pm, stop in and have some breakfast! The price is great for the portions and although you may have to wait it will be worth it. This is a great family friendly spot! In the mean time pour yourself a glass and enjoy!

Thats some good Mustache Wax!

               Over the summer I found out that not all mustache waxes are created equally! Not even by the same manufacturer. This being my first summer with a majestic mustache, or so I am told, I was not prepared for the heat and humidity. On a lunch stroll through downtown Olympia my fiancé and I walked into Archibald Sisters . I was having a bad mustache day and was so frustrated, I was contemplating starting over. I stumbled across Fisticuffs Mustache Wax tester in their shop.                First thing I noticed was the awesome container it comes in. Besides the cool label, its compact and fits in my pocket perfectly. It comes in a variety of scents, I prefer the Bay Rum. It’s a light refreshing scent that is not over powering. The wax itself has a light, clean feeling and melts easily in your fingers for application. What I appreciate most about this wax is that i...

Well 80's "Olympias Best Mustache Contest" 2018

My kids are offended with my mustache! They get irritated with random people chatting me up over my ‘stache in the grocery store, picking them up from school, or even walking around downtown Olympia. One of the things they are always saying is why do people keep asking you if you compete? I never really thought about competing, my ‘stache was requested by my fiancé and also I had no idea about how competing works. Luckily for me a local spot, Well 80 , in Olympia decided to put on “Olympias Best Mustache Contest”, November 30, 2018.                I decided to enter! I take meticulous care of my moustache, it was looking pretty great that night. Upon arriving about an hour and half before the competition and the spot was packed. Butterflies were in full effect, good thing they have great drinks. I was handed a piece of paper to fill out with questions like, “What’s your mustaches name”, “what’s its super power”...
