Description: The now defunct Sveden House made chicken wings famous before they were famous! Along with the tasty wings, the Sveden House was known for their apple fritters, baked chicken, bread pudding, carrot/raisin salad, glorified rice, salad bar, roast beef (carved for you at the end of the buffet), and their famous Swedish meatballs. Female employees were required to wear a uniform that resembled something a Swedish maid might wear: blue ruffled dress, nylons, white apron, white puffy-sleeved shirt, and white shoes. Nowadays, uniforms like these would be considered ‘sexist’, causing them to be picketed and banned!
Description: The Penthouse was a jazz club in Seattle, most remembered for John Coltrane's performance there in September 1965.

The club was on the ground floor of the Kenneth Hotel at 701 First Avenue, near the corner of Cherry Street, a building originally built as the Safe Deposit Building after the Great Seattle Fire of 1889, replacing the 1884 Merchant’s National Bank Building on the same site. Jim Wilke hosted Thursday night broadcasts from the club for KING radio.
