    When I lived in Seattle, used to drive past this place when heading north on Aurora Ave (old Hwy 99) when I had to go placed up north. It is right before you head onto the Aurora Bridge, and sits between Aurora and Dexter Ave and 6th Ave N takes you to the restaurant. I now live in Tacoma to the south of Seattle, so am about 45 minutes or so south of Seattle. It's always been a bit too rich for my budget, but have heard it's the ritzy place to go to, and still harkens to an era in our past where fine dining was considered classy, and Jazz or Lounge music was still popular. It still seems quite old school, but also updated for the times.

    The place in Seattle that you should try is Tanoor. It tells the story of two Seattles, the part of the city that is multicultural and the center of the Gluten Free movement. Tanoor is lebanese food and the owner has Celiac Disease. Almost everything on the menu is naturally gluten free, but doesn't take it. There isn't a bad thing on the menu, but the Arembeek is addictive. We always get 2 orders, both to eat in the restruant. And the gluten free pita...as someone with Celiac Disease it makes me cry.
    The location in Seattle is beautiful, but the location in Samammish is just extra special, espeically in the summer.
    It never dissapoints.

    I have gone here. We had to make reservations 6 months in advance. You don’t really get to decide what you’re going to eat. They just bring you a bunch of small plates. Each bite was interesting and I wouldn’t say anything was bad. At the end they charged us an extra 20% and specifically said it didn’t go to the server AND there was a tip line. For two people it was over $700. If pretentious and exclusive had a baby, it’d be Canlis.

    On a side note, I heard the food critic say Asian food is categorized as “street food,” possibly meaning a cheap meal. I have never thought of that. I think Americans have become familiar with takeaway or takeout Asian fast food. But contrary to his statement, many Asian plates are well crafted with peak quality ingredients. And that is considered gourmet, in my opinion.❤

It's cheap, and a little nasty, with a raw "molasses" taste, such as you'd get in a very cheap dark soy sauce. I'm certain Jack Bishop might have an idea on finding a good brand :)

    You should explain what "teriyaki" means. It's a Japanese word. "Teri" means shiny and "yaki" means grilling. It's an extremely common cooking method. So anything that's not shiny or grilled, that's not a teriyaki. Most Seattle teriyaki are not teriyaki at all. IMO Seattle teriyaki is an insult to teriyaki and I find them quite disgusting.
    She did a good job by using mirin and not using cornstarch. I've seen so many wrong recipes that were using cornstarch to thicken the sauce. It's rare to find American people actually use mirin, which is a key to teriyaki and many other Japanese dishes.
    "Maitake mushroom" is a bit weird to say because "-take" already means "mushroom."
