Business Owner

For anyone who grew up on the Eastside or in Bellevue in the 70s, John Howie's work history is a trip down memory lane.At 15, he worked as a busboy at the Refectory, a downtown Bellevue restaurant that was the McDonald's of lobster tails. I know I ate a lot of them. Sadly, there were health violations (a bit of bad news I'm glad I didn't know until now) & eventually it closed.After 3 months in lobster-land, John moved on to Emmett's, a fine-dining establishment on what is now auto row. He started as a pantry cook, but within six months ran the line completely by himself on Monday nights. As he says, "It was very high energy." Keep in mind that he was still in his teens.Longing for the big bucks, more than $4.65 anyway, at age 18 he went to Seattle to work for Jerry Kingen at Boondock's. At the same time, he worked at Sunday's (you oldsters know this was on the site of what is now Larry's on lower Queen Anne). He also spent several months working graveyard at the Seattle 13 Coins
