Month: March 2020

Sunday Pastries and Hanbāgu

Thank you everyone for coming out today!

Tomorrow, I’ll have more pastries. For the to-go plate lunch, I’ll have hanbāgu—which is the Japanese version of Hamburg steak and similar to how hamburger steak is served in Hawaii. It comes with rice, my grandma’s potato salad and house-made kimchi.

Hours are 11 until everything sells out–the pastries and hanbāgu are limited. Credit cards, please, as I have no till 😊. To keep everyone healthy, only one person/group enters at a time, and thank you for keeping a safe social distance when in line.

Stay healthy and safe!

Weekend Pastries and Kalua Pork

I hope everyone is doing well.

With so many concerns and uncertainties, I wanted to do something to cheer people up that is safe, so I decided to sell some pastries on the weekend. (I did this when the Great Recession hit, too.)

I will be open on Saturday and Sunday from 11 am to sell out. Items are limited. Cards only, please, since I don’t have a cash register!

I also have some lunch items to go: Hawaiian kalua pork with rice, my grandma’s potato salad and house made kimchi.

I hope everyone stays safe and healthy.

Presenting UpCountry Beer by Atwood

Atwood UpCountry beer labels

Atwood Ales of Bellingham has recently released two specially crafted beers just for the UpCountry, and what a delight they are. Thank you, Atwood Ales!!

One of these special brews is an amber ale, bottled with a red label, and the other is a saison with a green label. Made from local ingredients, including Skagit Valley malt and hops grown on premises, these beers are a nice complement to a meal or simply great on their own.

Available exclusively at the UpCountry, this amber and saison are relatively low in alcohol content. As always, please enjoy responsibly!
