So after both of us having been basically taken turns not being in S. town, today we finally meet up with the doctor friend I met on the plane 4 months ago. And what better place to go than Sushi Kashiba - a place we've been wanting to go to but haven't.
Before diving in, a little background - Sushi Kashiba was opened by Shiro and a few others chefs in Seattle. Yup - the same Shiro that used to be at Shiro!
Shiro is said to the be the Godfather of Seattle Sushi... And we were lucky enough to sneak in for a quick picture with him right when we sat down as the bar was clearing (even though we didn't sit at the bar. Wuhahahaha!
We had their omakase and it was pretty good. The fish was pretty fresh. The Uni and Toro were really good (so I ordered seconds!).
Also got a bunch of Hawaii food recommendations, since Ms. Doc lived in Hawaii for a little bit in the past.
Fun times - need to do this again!
The menu for the night:
- Madai fishcake
- Otoro handroll
- Sushi Part I: Albacore tuna, Tuna, Madai, Hirame (Flounder)
- Sushi Part II: King salmon, Sockeye, Ebi, King Mackerel (over hay), Toro (aburi style), Hokkaido Scallop
- Sushi Part III: Geoduck, Ikura, Uni, Eel
- King crab roll
- Toro and Uni handroll (not part of the omakase - I ordered this separately :) )
- Tamago and Miso
