Things I love about the Seattle area: Teriyaki shops
It's just a thing out here, like Taquerias in the south west. Privately owned shops offering most of the same menu; tasty chicken teriyaki being the usual star of the show.
It's the blue collar dish of choice for many out here; construction crews breaking for lunch in one of these tiny shops is just as common as office workers doing the same.
I think that's kind of beautiful, honestly.
@mawr I missed it so much when I was in CA
@vahnj You can get a similar experience at the taquerias in CA-- but the primary language will not be English ^^;;
