Pike Street Fish Fry


This weekend, I hit up one of my favorite Seattle snack spots, Pike Street Fish Fry. It's a tiny, hole-in-the-wall place, but boy, they fry up some goodness. Everything's made to order -- fish, shrimp, calamari, oysters and pommes frites. And then there are the sauces: housemade tartar, lemon aioli, curry ketchup, salsa verde and smoked chili mayo. You'll usually get a fried lemon slice atop your order, which is like biting into crispy-coated sunshine.
