Murray Morgan should be proud

I've now been to The Red Hot on 6th Ave a few times and it has been a treat each time.  In order of appearance, I devoured a Murray Morgan Bridge Brat, a Destiny City Slaw Dog, and then another Murray Morgan Bridge Brat.  Aside from having the best name of any brat I've encountered, it is the perfect snack when you're on the go.  I add cream cheese to my brat to complement the existing sauerkraut and mustard.  The slaw dog was perfect as is.  For 3 or 4 dollars you can't beat it.  They have a dozen or so different choices to suit a variety of tastes.

After many years, someone has finally done it.  I'd always wondered why nobody had launched a Starbuck's/McDonald's calibre dog chain in the US, and I used to dream about opening a double drive-thru dog stand in Tacoma.  I wanted to call mine Schwank's and it was going to be awesome.  The Red Hot has taken everything I had envisioned, moved it to a swank sit-down bar atmosphere, and added a bunch of beer.  Brilliant.

    Being from Germany I can tell you this bratwurst is excellent, it is as good as any bratwurst you can find in Germany, in this area you would be hard pressed to find anything that comes close in taste to the Murray Morgan that the Red Hot offers. Their sauerkraut is very nice as well. The only thing I would change is get rid of the hot dog bun, serve the bratwurst
    on a hard roll type bun like the german broetchen.
