| - OK. I'm going to start this one off with talking about the pro's. The spicy hamachi hand roll was fantastic, making me believe that the rest of the rolls would probably be pretty awesome, a few of the tables next to ours had rolls on em and they looked good, but alas, the real test is the quality (and quantity) of fish. in this department, i thought i had found the right place. I had been to japango 3 times prior, and had been on all 3 occasions unsuccesful in actually eating (one time which lead me to Akai on harbord, a proper sushi spot) all 3 times they were either closed (on sunday, a good sign) or too busy. Anyways, the actual sashimi was uninspiring, not well portioned, and where the fish wasnt totally fresh (ie: the red snapper) they charred or seared it, an trick that isnt all too un-tasty but a trick never the less. That said, i dont think ill come back to japango, and albeit the fanfare, i just dont think its That awesome.
