The Hit List: New Seattle Restaurants To Try Right Now
"Eating sushi at a brewery isn’t really a thing unless you bring your own takeout—or just post up at Figurehead Brewing in Fremont, where Ooshiba is an in-house vendor. This Japanese kitchen serves nigiri that could go toe-to-toe with the likes at some omakase spots, and it feels very fun to pair your buttery wasabi-smeared salmon belly with mellow Mexican lager. The kushiyaki are worth ordering in multiples, like chicken tsukune so moist and soft that you could eat it like an ice cream cone, or sizzled pork belly strips with a perfect ratio of melty fat to lean meat. The next time you’re feeling disillusioned by brewery food trucks that prioritize greasy sandwiches and fries, grab space on Figurehead’s secret garden patio to snack on otoro and grilled beef on a stick.
