"During your trip, it's crucial to get a Pacific Northwest view of mountains, water, skyline, and beach simultaneously. Marination Ma Kai at Alki Beach is where you can nab this oddly specific vantage point and tear through Hawaiian-Korean food like kimchi fried rice, spam sliders, and kalbi beef tacos. By all means, drink some lychee margaritas on a patio picnic table in the summer—but the views (and panko-crusted fish sandwiches with miso slaw) are just as good in other seasons, too." - aimee rizzo, kayla sager riley
