sushi kaneyoshi just keeps on getting better and better. this holiday box was pretty close to flawless. i think the theme of this box was fatty and delicious, just look at the marbling on the saba, it’s the best i’ve had in a long time.
sake boiled awabi (abalone)
extremely tender with the flavor coming from its liver
seikogani (female snow crab)
combine this with a bowl of rice, soy sauce, wasabi and go to town.
smoked masu (ocean trout)
perfect amount of smokiness.
grilled mehikari (greeneye)
i’ve only had this as tempura, the flesh was sweet and fatty, with the head providing some bitterness.
hotate aburi (scallop) w/nori
sweet and meaty
kamasu (barracuda) bozushi
vinegar marinated saba
a5 marbling
sawara (king mackerel)
shirako
soy braised ankimo
up there with sgo’s ankimo
misozuke pacific oysters
