Rotarian faces in the crowd. At Sully’s. On the Kingston Order Bombers flight over Suquamish, Thursday, Apr 29. Mark and Kris Libby and their group. Walt and Bobbie. David Witt and his gang. Doug Hallock and his friend. Chris Gilbreath for five. And Ron Carter for two. Together they accounted for 16 meals that would not have been served if not for Kingston North Kitsap Rotary Club’s effort to support local restaurants and businesses. Apologies to those who may have been, whom I missed.
Permission for author’s privilege to report an observation. Kingston Ale House. Kafe Neo. Scratch Kitchen. Coffee Oasis. D’Vine Wines. White Horse Cedar Grill. Sully’s. The food has been good at every stop. Kingston Order Bombing is NOT a charity event. It is worth it. And good. Highly recommend the fish taco on the menu at Sully’s. And the clam chowder. If you couldn’t make it on the bombing run, try it next time you are going through Suquamish.
Coming next. Over the Moon Coffee Roasters, Thursday, May 6. 7a until 5:30p. Meet a friend there. Invite a neighbor. Take a family member. Takeout fresh coffee and something good to eat.
No excuses. You have all day to partake. The generous menu of coffee mixes is accompanied by popular food items, such as house made quiche (one of the most popular), build-your-own breakfast sandwiches - which can be fashioned into build-your-own lunch sandwiches (ham, brie, and egg could easily become ham, brie, avocado, and spinach for lunch). Breakfast burritos are popular, too. Try the sausage, scrambled egg, and mixed cheese, or the chorizo, scrambled egg, fontina cheese, green onion, and cilantro burrito. A note about quiche and burritos. Please tell Rotary Coordinator David Winn that’s what you want by Wednesday before, as these items are hand made and put together the night before. With limited seating, takeout is encouraged. Good spaces for “picnicking” are to be found in either of the Port parks.
Courage. What it took to keep pushing to open a new business in the throes of a pandemic. Timing was not good. Over the Moon signed its lease Mar 1, 2020, just days before the first case of Covid in Washington. The plan was to do construction and open in the spring. That didn’t happen until September Six months without revenue. Lee and Ma - the proprietors - report “through the ups and downs of learning to start a business during a global pandemic, our community has slowly built up around our shop to support us to where we are today. Ma and I could not be more grateful.”
Lee has one more offer for Bombers. A deal on fair trade coffee beans by the bag, personally roasted by Lee in medium, bold, and bolder. One bag - $9; two bags - $16; three - $24; four - $30.
Help double the impact by bringing someone along - neighbor, friend, family member. Alert David Winn you are on the Over the Moon mission at: tahuya81@comcast.net - or - KingstonOrderBombers@gmail.com. And tell David by Wednesday night if you want the quiche or the burrito, so they can prepare it custom, just for you.
