Both were phenomenal and I wouldn't have tried had it not been for these videos. Thanks for these reviews and also for showcasing the beauty of Seattle! Definitely was a big influence in me finally deciding to visit.

  • @chiar0scur0
    @chiar0scur0 10 месяцев назад +8

    Kenji's teriyaki criteria so far:
    Prefers Japanese style rice, sticky but not mushy
    Salad in a separate container, dressing not too sweet.
    Gyoza: ideally potsticker style with fresh dumplings, but deep fried can also be good if the skins are crispy and not greasy or tough. Sauce- can be any style as long as it's not too sweet.
    Chicken: thighs, marinaded and grilled fresh, chopped then sauced and served (no chopping then reheating).

    • @rockinmel1

    It's outside of Seattle, but if you're ever up north you should consider trying Ta Joia! in Bothell. No hype, but their spicy chicken along with their cilantro sauce and pico de gallo are all amazing. Maybe not "traditional" teriyaki, but to me it's worth the trip.

    I used to work about a block and a half away from there and works go there almost weekly. The prices, like most places, have SKYROCKETED. I used to be able to get chicken and gyoza for like $13, but I went there the other day (first time in a long time since I don’t work nearby any longer) and was shocked to pay $21 for that combo after tax and slight tip. The food was still absolutely amazing. I will continue to stand by my claim that this is the best teriyaki in Seattle.

      I don't think it was owned by the same people... the one in Georgetown was "I Luv Teriyaki".
