Kush Sake Bar (CLOSED)

If you're in the mood for small bites and sake, there's no better place on the Eastside to satisfy your cravings than at Kush. The sake bar offers a wide range of the Japanese rice wine, from a cloudy Snow Maiden-Tozai to a smooth Rose Cherry Blossom variety. Order by the glass or bottle, then choose from a selection of small plates: edamame, seaweed salad, pork buns and seafood fries, working your way up to one of the three bowls of ramen Kush offers (tonkotsu, spicy tonkotsu and vegetable). The best part? Kush is from the same owners behind Silver Lake Ramen, and the ramen here is one and the same—meaning you don't have to wait in Silver Lake Ramen's massive lines for a bowl of the good stuff.
