Since I am from Tacoma I thought that it would be appropriate to post about some more art related stuff about Tacoma. Over the past few years, since I have been back, there has been a surge of art and art related events in Tacoma. I think that this is great because I really do believe that art is good for you. So, lets talk about the Tacoma art walk. The Tacoma Art Walk takes place every third Thursday of every month. For a complete map of the Tacoma Art Walk click here.

I have fond memories of the Tacoma Art Walk and one of my favorite memories involves sushi. This particular art walk took place several years ago and the group that I was with were finishing up at the Tacoma Art Museum. All of us in the group were completely starving, and we spotted some nearby restaurants. As we got closer to this particular restaurant we saw through the windows that the place was crazy busy and they served sushi. When we entered the restaurant we were promptly greeted by the manager who informed us that the restaurant was not open, but before I could comment on that, because clearly they were open, she stated that this was a soft opening and that they were training the staff. The manager continued to state that because of the soft opening that everything on the menu was $5. We were all excited; so we took a nearby table that was being cleared off and proceeded to have amazing sushi and cocktails.  The restaurant is called TwoKoi and still remains my favorite place for sushi in Tacoma. I still frequent TwoKoi every chance I get and the whole reason that I discovered it was because of the Tacoma Art Walk.
