My husband took a wrong turn and I saw the Almond Roca sign spinning. It's a small factory outlet…read more I honestly didn't know Almond Roca was made here in Tacoma, Washington. The person who rang me up was telling us that it used to be a boot factory. The other lady said it became a chocolate factory in like 1912. She mentioned they used to make Mars candy bars here as well. They even have a link for a virtual tour. It was a nice little shopping adventure. I highly recommend checking it out.

This is no Hershey's chocolate, folks :)

Well, since I both like mussels and curry, I scooped that up in about half a second. Taylor Shellfish has quite a five generations of history in Washington State's shellfish business. They're a big company with over 500 employees and an awesome website from which you can order pretty much anything related to things that swim or creep around the ocean. The 3.5-ounce tin of Curried Mussels was priced at $12 and full of plenty of plump and tender mussels in a delicate curried oil. I just tossed them into a bowl of cooked pasta for a quick and fantastic dinner. Definitely a fan!

No! This place was…read morereally disappointing. Came here based on reviews, but I. would caution anyone to steer clear of this place. It started with flat champagne drinks. That's just a fail, and it suggests a place that doesn't bother keeping things fresh. It kind of went downhill from there. We were looking for nice fresh fish and chips, wile we were out along the coast. We live near the coast ourselves, and are no strangers to good seafood. We decided to do the Cod and the Halibut fish and chips. While the halibut seemed fresh, the cod was waxy and looked old, and frankly i found it somehow mildly nauseating. I couldn't bring myself to teat it. The batter was crsipy, but lacked seasoning and tasted really flat (cardboard?). Aside from that, the coleslaw seemed pretty old soggy. Gross. Not impressed at all - some of the worst fish and chips I have ever had. Some people may like this kind of food - but i will actively avoid this place the next time in Astoria. Hard pass. i'm nauseous just thinking back to my experience here. Could hardly get away fast enough...

To start with, I had a really hard time finding this place because the building and signs are…read moredifferent than what is available online. The halibut was soft and wet rather than dry and meaty. The crab louie salad was underwhelming in both size and flavor. We spent over $60 and didn't feel like we got much. So what is the name of this place?

Neither photos nor words do justice to how good it is! The truffles, let's just focus on those - they are works of art. Hands down some of the most beautifully made - and delicious - that I have ever had the pleasure of trying. A smooth shiny glass like finish. The cherry one has a little cherry stem coming out the bottom (cute - and informative); the pistachio one has pistachios embedded artistically in the top like a volcano. They are just incredible. We didn't go inside yet as I mentioned our family has been going here for a long time and the way they tell it the service is great. Highly recommend for a quick treat, for a treat to savor for more than just a bite, for gifts, or for yourself.
