| - quick update and adding some cam-phone pics, if they turned out in the low light...
It has been awhile since I've been blessed with the time or cash to partake of Sea Saw. Wow. Amazing. And they're mixing things up.
FOOD-WISE:
I like to start with a Sparkling Cosmo (believe it or not, i'm straight), then we nurse liquid heaven: Jouzen Mizu no Gotoshi sake. It's like flower water from heaven, that makes your pants fall off later.
New stuff! They started making a fried focaccia bread, similar to the bread that accompanies the White Fish Carpacio, but it's fluffy and golden. This is for making sammiches! And the first sandwich out the door is Softshell Crab. If you're thinking "oh-great-greasy-softshell-crab-roll-at crappy-sushi-joint", STOP right there. It's heaven. Like something you'd get in New Orleans at a 5-star French joint. Light, but crunchy and savory. Not greasy at all. Hints of spicy aioli and mild red onion. Yes, mild red onion.
The big eye tuna sashimi always seems better than the last time. And a special hirame sashimi with a citrus zest - chili paste (yuzu kosho) topper was the perfect ender.
More sandwiches and a late-night menu are on the way. Part of that late night menu will be steamed buns (think momofuku) stuffed with savories like pork belly and short ribs.
OTHER CHANGES:
Probably gonna be closed a day or two (sun and/or mon) soon, but adding some late-night offerings as mentioned above.
Indefinitely, no move across the street into the weird no man's land along the canal.
All this is hearsay at this point, but it sounds promising as it was coming from Jeff and Nobu. We can't wait!
