West Seattle scene: Bird sighting on New Luck Toy door

img_20161014_210900

Thanks to Kennedy for the photo sent this weekend. These birds are on the doors of the new New Luck Toy, the “dive bar”/Chinese restaurant expected to open soon at 5905 California SW, previous home to Chopstix, Pan Africa Grill, Ho-Win, and going back even further, other restaurants including Bite of China and China King. We are checking to see if a date is set yet; proprietors including Ma’ono‘s Chef Mark Fuller were hoping to open this month, when we last checked in.

P.S. Along with the birds on the door, there’s a dragon out back.

    Is there any cheap stiff drink sightings which are indigenous to New Luck Toy?

    Those look like Crested Cranes. The national bird of Uganda.

    Whatever they are, they add a lot of color to that space.  and the dragon – beautiful!

    I figured the birds were phoenixes, because phoenixes and dragons are all over Chinese myth.

Sorry, comment time is over.
