I enjoyed it too. Quaint and homey- not too slick appearing. I’ll miss it.

Went to Morihiro today, 715 yesterday. Morihiro wins by a landslide. In fact, today’s meal was the best I ever remember from Chef Mori, dating back to the old Mori Sushi. I couldn’t find fault with any of the nigiri. The appetizers were creative, especially fried abalone with karasumi. This was a two-star meal tonight, no question. Maybe Chef Mori’s hand-designed Michelin-star-shaped porcelain for one dish was a subtle suggestion to the Michelin inspectors?
