Wild Local Halibut Ceviche and Seikyo Omachi Junmai Ginjo Namazake at Saiko Sushi in North Park

I've heard positive things about Saiko Sake & Sushi Bar for a while and finally bit for a Sake Flights & Bites event. This was the first of an on-going series and featured the seasonal nama sake alongside three savory courses and one dessert course.
