Friday night at Sushi U (鮨雄)

It's been a long while since I last wrote anything about...anything. I'm surprised by my own impetus to scribble a few lines tonight, as I try to break in my new Grado headphones on the good ol' Ipod.

After a week of back-to-back, 8.30am to 7.30pm meetings, nothing relaxes me more than a proper sushi meal on a Friday night. Sushi U has been the one hitting the right notes with me lately - fresh fish (except the slight burnt anago), right size, right temperature, balanced rice, yummy sake, friendly chefs. I wondered why this place was relatively empty on a Friday evening, given the quality and a reasonable omakase price tag?

I am looking forward to Sushi U again next Friday. Hopefully my favourite fresh saba will be available then.
