Good eats and drinks around Tacoma, Pierce County and South Puget Sound

Posted by Sue Kidd @ 06:12:43 am
Baristas will brew their finest this week in the ultimate coffee comp – the Northwest Regional Barista Competition, Friday through Sunday at Tacoma’s Temple Theatre (details on the "read more" button).
It will be the first coffee competition for Zachary Marvick, a local artist and barista at Tacoma’s Satellite Coffee. He also brews at Black Water in Tacoma, but for this competition, he’s representing Satellite.
“I just hope to do a good job,” said a Marvick, who has crafted espresso and coffee drinks since 1999.
