Wagyu nigiri - 2+ J's comment > really buttery as expected of marble Wagyu :D:D:D; tad salty w the yuzu kosho but completely forgivable w the brilliant wagyu cut |

Chu-toro nigiri - 2+ J's comment > lovely cut, not a single tendon; not as buttery as o-toro though (we would have gotten the o-toro but it wasn't available today) |

Battera oshizushi (pressed mackerel sushi) - 2+ J's comment > lovely fish as per the above aburi saba nigiri, but surprisingly the non-aburi version was a tad saltier; loved the presence of shiso; I totally appreciate the traditional take on oshizushi, but have to say the Miku / Minami aburi salmon oshizushi has the edge on the oshizushi battle for me |

Black sesame gomaae - 2 J's comment > disappointingly almost too sweet; nice tender spinach pieces though; could have used way more black sesame flavor |

Snicker doodle w mix berry - 2+ J's comment > kind of like a berry pie; for once the ice cream actually makes sense w the pie underneath (not really sure why the title of the dish was 'snicker doodle' as that stands for a type of cookie) |
