#2368 #S1192 - Shiku Sushi, Seattle - 12/7/2013

bacon wrapped scallops skewers and Yakitori chicken skewers
Shiku Sushi, Ballard, Seattle

You would not want to trust me on sushi, but I am told that both the traditional and new styles at Shiku are pretty good, and I did enjoy a couple items off the Izakaya menu, which also includes a mix of traditional and creative choices. And while most of the fruity cocktail menu does not cater to my tastes, I quite liked my "Shogun," which is basically a Boulevardier with Yuzu.

The vibe is fairly romantic, even on a sunny afternoon. Regretably, I missed the bathroom, with its 'toilet with the control panel, heated seat, and "adjustable cleansing wand."' (thestranger)
