| - This place continues to be my at-least-weekly sushi spot.
Two weeks ago, on a Tuesday, they shut down the restaurant for the day. I have gotten to know the sushi chefs there, so when I asked them what happened, they told me that it was because they received a shipment of sub-par tuna that day. Since so many customers order tuna on any given day (rolls, spicy tuna, etc), they decided it was best to just close for the day rather than try and salvage some of the bad tuna.
That is the definition of integrity. I don't know any other sushi restaurant in town that would sacrifice a day of revenue because of a situation like that. Definitely not Sushi-Mon or any of the Korean run sushi restaurants in town - no way.
I think that speaks highly of the owner and the importance he puts on consistently serving only the highest quality fish.
Other than that, I don't have much of an update. I continue to order many of my favs I've written about in the past including GT-R roll, hamachi, aji, ika ten. Lately, they have also been getting in some really fresh moi from Hawaii. Also, since my last review I have been served some very good uni - as good as any I've had at other places.
