Yoroshiku is a late addition to the Alaska Herring Week 2017 lineup! Yoroshiku is a Japanese Izakaya house in Wallingford. It reopened on June 1st, after an major renovation during which it doubled in size, but which also delayed its confirmation as an Alaska Herring Week participant. Yoroshiku will be serving Wafu Herring Risotto for Alaska Herring Week 2017!
Wanna make this at home? You can purchase the same Alaska Herring fillets being used by Seattle’s top chefs for Alaska Herring Week from Central Coop on Capitol Hill, Freshy’s Seafood Market on Mercer Island, Old Ballard Liquor Co. in Ballard, and Wild Salmon Seafood Market at Fisherman’s Terminal! Once you’ve done that, here’s the recipe:
