OMFG! Hands down, my best Omakase experience ever! The 6:00PM seating session started promptly and each sushi chef took their position on the counter and began their preparation for the evening. Watching Chef Ouchi meticulously hand prepare each piece of sushi was an art performance all on its own. He handled each piece of fish with so much grace and fluidity which added to the experience. Chef Ouchi described each type of sashimi used and the origin of the fish. We were all dining globally as each piece of fish came from a different country. The sushi does not require any additional soy sauce or wasabi since each piece contains a little bit of freshly grated wasabi and was brushed with a light layer of soy sauce and served immediately to each restaurant patron. The seasoned sushi rice created a harmonious balance to the sashimi. The meal ended with a piece of tamago which was a prelude to the spoonful size serving of black sesame ice cream. I highly recommend opting for the premium sashimi appetizer and with the sake pairing.
Reservations are a must as the establishment only accommodates not more than 20 people per dining session and I believe there are only two sessions available each day. You'll have the option of making reservations for either table seating or sushi bar (this one is a no brainer, sushi bar is where you'll enjoy your dining experience the most). I'm beyond impressed and felt so honoured to have had the opportunity to dine at Yasu.
