Happy to hear about Chef Ibrahim's identity journey. Celebrating our unique cultures and sharing them with others is a beautiful thing. I can totally relate to that feeling of isolation and shame then later realizing how important our diverse heritage is. One love!

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.

I wonder, will this be included on kenji's teriyaki tour of Seattle?

Love Canlis!!! My parent went in the 50s and 60s, and we went in the 90s. We are now living in Oregon, but Canlis is very special.

Eden Hill on Queen Anne is outstanding. Their tasting menu always has something new and is really the best way to experience this marvelous restaurant. It is very small so reservations are a must.

Patience & Passion, that’s what chef has. Beautiful

This finished plating looks far too beautiful, in many ways, I highly doubt I could disturb it.

I travel a lot. whenever I'm in a new city/state I Google to see if Bryan has been there, and if so, where he ate. Then I know where to go for lunch/dinner. He's one of my favorite CC hosts/test cooks

Came here to say this. I love these segments with Bryan, and I think it's cool when he gets back to the kitchen and gives a shot at these recipes himself!

So nice to see her❤❤❤ Good to see her succeed!🎉🎉

great episode!

That looks incredible.

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.

You need to go to Taurus Ox. There, I said it. Also, Rose Pho, Saigon Drip Cafe, Chan Seattle, and maybe even some Katsu Burger. If you go to Katsu burger, dont skip the black sesame shake.

It’s always been that place you drive by on the way to or from somewhere, when you live in the Seattle area. Went there in the 80’s, maybe twice. Might have been there in the 70’s too, but don’t remember. Nice to see that it’s survived everything. 👍🤪🏳️‍🌈

Eat at Familyfriend, a Guamanian restaurant run by a respected Filipino chef. 3315 Beacon Avenue, between Horton and Hinds streets.

The absolute best teriyaki in the Seattle area is WOW Teriyaki in Lynnwood.

Canlis is definitely world class.

Sweet!! I thought i made the best teriyaki sauce (mines a red wine, so its the best in its class😜). Gotta try the rice too. Wish i made it there when i lived in west seattle

Wow🎉

What did she mean by "start with 80/20"? Particular fat blend in the squeeze bottle?

RIP Scary Terikyaki. 😢

WOOHOO!!! Love that she’s Filipino 💙 That guy has most likely only had westernized Asian food if he thinks they are always sweet. Even the desserts aren’t nearly as sweet as Westernized desserts. As a half Asian/half American Anglo mix having traveled to many countries, the only Asians that add more sugar to their food are the Koreans. This is MY food travel experience so don’t get triggered. I love the differences in all the foods of all the world 💙

Where people live, their backgrounds and experiences or even those of their parents can affect their experience with food. In Bryan's case, his mother was a teacher who taught in several places around the world so Bryan grew eating the foods of the places she taught, including Spain, Korea and Japan. She met Bryan's dad, who was in the Air Force, in the Philippines. Bryan was born there.

@@sandrah7512 Sounds like my military child then spouse experience. As a teacher, culture was a huge part of my curriculum, especially the foods. My American students learned how crack open coconuts with the back of a knife then grate it sitting on a special stool with a serrated blade at the end. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg regarding cultural enrichment incorporated into the required standards.

My go to was Chungs Teriyaki

I had a version of this at teriyaki madness for $6.95. Rice was free.

Mmmmmmm very delicious looking 😊😊😊😊😊

Pretty sure she was saying Kasu not Katsu. Which would probably be in reference to Sake Kasu.

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.

I live in WVA, & I was born in '66...I'm so sad that chef had a negative experience, but being "heavy" ....ermm....yet ANOTHER for the .."perfect girls"😊

I'd like to know why the chef used tamari, instead of shoyu, and specifically what brand. Where I live, there are several good brands of shoyu (and expensive ones too), but I've only seen one brand of tamari. 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 :)

Seattle's most famous restaurant is called Dick's. Do not challenge a local on that fact!

Most famous? That would be Dick's or Ivar's

@Abe-fp7ip

Dick’s is for sure the most famous. I would bet the ratio would something like 100 to one if it were a contest but they are definitely on both ends of the price spectrum 😂
