I found myself in Markham for the first time late one scorching afternoon and consulted my GPS to satiate my hunger pangs. Markham Sushi is what resulted when I typed in "Markham" and "sushi". Fair enough, I thought and ventured to try it.
Late afternoon is something of a limbo for restaurants, so I wasn't too worried that the restaurant was empty when I arrived. The friendly man behind the sushi bar and the woman who greeted me with a warm welcome appeared to be a Korean couple. The decor in the small strip mall restaurant was more authentic and pleasantly ornate than I had expected.
I quickly decided on the sushi and sashimi dinner special from the thick menu complete with colour photos. The appetizer salad and miso soup that quickly arrived were nicer and more delicious than average. I especially appreciated the abundance of extra rich and creamy dressing on the salad. My dinner was good and the peace and quiet of the place really enjoyable.
