LET'S EAT By Carolyn Augustine Walking into The Pour House in Eatonville is surprising.-áHalf is a big, old wooden bar with stools, displaying an impressive variety of bottled spirits. The other side, separated by a waist-high fence, has four huge rustic picnic tables with seating for about 10 at each one. We were greeted and seated by Tony Braanco, chef, wait staff and hospitality director. His jovial attention put us at ease at once, he brought menus and drinks immediately, and he was friendly and attentive. He told us that The Pour House has taken an old location a nd updated it to serve the tourists, as well as the local population. -á There is a large dining room to the rear, and plenty of parking in the vacant lot next door, as well as on-street.-á The menu is varied, ranging from elk and buffalo to chicken and fish burgers. There is pizza and wings, salad and fish and chips. We ordered a Mushroom Swiss Burger at $9.99, a Blue Cheese Chicken Burger at $9.99 with fries on the side with both,-áan order of Chicken Wings with fries and Red Hot Sauce at -á$9.99, and coffee -áat $2. We were told that all prices are changing soon, so there may be differences if you go. -á The Mushroom Burger was fine, and the Blue Cheese Chicken Burger was excellent, with a solid slice of chicken, battered and deep-fried, and covered in blue cheese dressing. The wings were good, six to the order, not greasy, and good. The fries were some of the best I have ever eaten, and Tony stated that they are great favorites with many people and have a special secret spice blend. They were long and cut thin, and crispy and really excellent.
