Kasey Kahne from Enumclaw

When it comes to eating in Enumclaw, there are many fine choices; however, locals and downtown eaters find themselves often making a decision: Rainier or The Mint?

Let Kasey Kahne answer for himself at the 55-second mark of his interview on The Furness Show right here.

In case you couldn’t guess,

Kasey Kahne says “I personally prefer The Mint”

— let’s just say we’re happy to stick that one in our back pocket! Thanks Kasey!

In all fairness, he continues: “the Rainier’s great, but The Mint’s my favorite spot for lunch.” They talk about Enumclaw quite a bit as Kasey Kahne weighs in on Enumclaw’s restaurant scene in a broad-ranging interview on Seattle’s 950am-KJR sports radio program, The Furness Show (6/30). (Including, of course, the obligatory “Enumscratch” reference. The interview is fun.)

Ian and Puck caught up with Kahne as he was busy co-hosting (with Russell Wilson) his foundation’s second-annual charity golf tournament — this year benefiting Seattle Children’s Hospital and the Strong Against Cancer initiative.
