Shanik may be one of Seattle’s best-kept happy-hour secrets. The restaurant offers 20 percent off the bar menu, with miniature versions of the restaurant’s best dishes, like lentil and potato pakoras with sweet date chutney, spicy pura (mini-Indian crepes), and the famous spice-encrusted lamb popsicle. As does the larger menu, the happy-hour offerings will shift slightly with the seasons, reflecting owner Meeru Dhalwala’s commitment to local sourcing.
