Sushi comes to Beachwood General Store

A new sushi kitchen is opening in Birch Bay’s Beachwood General Store, featuring a take-out menu of traditional and contemporary sushi rolls.

Set to open by August 14, the new eatery is named SKAI Sushi and is being opened by Shinae Kim and her husband Doune Inthavong.

The couple has experience operating multiple restaurants. From 1997 to 2011, they operated Birch Bay Teriyaki, and from 2011 to this year, they operated Nami Asian Bistro in Lynden.

The new eatery will only offer take-out. There is no seating area within the Beachwood General Store, although there are some benches outside.

SKAI Sushi is located at 5000 Helweg Road near the Beachwood Resort. It will be open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Monday through Friday, and from 4 to 8 p.m. on Saturday.
