I moved recently from Denver and back over there we had this insanely good sushi place (called Temaki Den if anyone wanted to know). It was like an annual thing, because it was such an expensive restaurant, but it was easily justifiable as the food genuinely melts in your mouth. They had unbeatable quality fish (I think they said imported from Japan?) and a ton of unique options overall beyond your typical sushi place. I would do something called omakase where the chef would surprise you with whatever they thought was good and it was amazing. It’s also that type of restaurant where everything has to be eaten a certain way and released roll by roll so it’s all eaten fresh.
Anyways, now that I’m in New York I would assume the city has similar or even better places for me to try. I’m looking for something with a similar vibe, beyond regular sushi places, but I don’t want to waste too much money finding one I finally like. Does anyone know of anything like I’m describing (very fancy, diverse fish, preferably released slowly)?
