MASHIKO JAPANESE RESTAURANT & SUSHI BAR

Food and Beverage > Seafood

Established in 1994, Mashiko has always pushed the boundaries of thought on food and culture. As of August 15, 2009, Mashiko became Seattle’s first fully sustainable sushi bar.
How do we define what is sustainable when it comes to seafood? Some key factors to consider are traceability, fish populations, fishing methods, and farming practices.
Traceability refers to the ability to find out where your seafood came from. This includes knowing specifically where, as well as how it was caught.
Some fish populations are in steep decline. We must allow these species time to repopulate so that we can enjoy them responsibly for generations to come.
The most sustainable fishing methods do not cause damage to the oceans or allow for much bycatch (unintended creatures caught during fishing).
