#1910 #S1079 - Marination Ma Kai, Seattle - 10/5/2012

Boozy shave ice! Why do some things that seem so obvious take so long to arrive to us? I can barely wait for a sunny day to take the water taxi from downtown Seattle across Elliot Bay to the new Marination Ma Kai ("ma kai" = "along the sea") in West Seattle and have me some boozy shaved ice!

The Marination Ma Kai is a small old waterfront fish and chips place that now hosts the people behind one of the most popular food trucks in Seattle. The food ranges from kimchi fried rice, to spam musubi, to tacos and quesadillas, to sliders with nunya sauce and pickled jalapenos. The bar is a very tiny affair -- six seats total -- from whence they serve some good beers and pretty good cocktails. Alas, the boozy shave ice was not available yet, and it was not optimal weather for it in any case, so I settled for a Jalapeno Fizz (quite good) and a "Mai Kai" (meh).

And I will be be back.

#1909 #S1078 - Flying Fish, Seattle - OOO

Continuing entries for bars previously visited but which I somehow did not get on this list at the time.

In 2010, James Beard award winning chef Chris Keff moved her 15-yo Belltown restaurant Flying Fish into the Terry/Mercer building in the burgeoning Allentown area around South Lake Union. The new space is bigger and brighter, the cocktails are reliable and the food is very good. Service is rather hit and miss.

#1908 #S1077 - Salty's, Seattle - OOO

Continuing to add some bars that somehow did not make it onto the list previously.

Salty's on Alki is known for good seafood, an epic Sunday brunch buffet, and perhaps the best restaurant view in Seattle. (Founded by Gerry Kingen, who also owned the original Red Robin, and various other Seattle bars including the Blue Moon Tavern, the Warehouse, and places with names like " Lion O’Reilly’s and B.J. Monkeyshines" and "Boondock’s Sundeckers and Greenthumbs.")
