Ive been to some great sushi joints in my life, including Michelin started ones in Tokyo…but three nights ago may have been the best one io all, in Las Vegas of all places

YUM. I recognize ahi and uni, right?, but what's in the middle? Seared marinated Black cod?

Now I see all the other ones, and al's post and I want you to go back and label these dishes.

The black cod, which was cooked, was the 2nd dish after the maguro...please don't make me label each one, it was exhausting just posting them...

I've had sushi everywhere as well, including Japan, but the best I've ever tasted was in Kalispell, MT of all places...

Was that an omakase meal or did you choose what you wanted? If omakase what is the per person cover for that awesome selection?

Omakase...four large each...2.5 hours...there were at least 3, maybe 4 courses I forgot to take pics of. It was a marathon...

mmmm, Uni. Anthony Bourdain called them little buttery tongues which always struck me as a pretty apt description. Looks delicious.

Very fresh, good uni is delicious...old, poorly kept uni is not...I've eaten it right out of the body sitting on the beach after harvesting them...

Generally speaking, bluefin is fattier...

Just salted, very short visit to a hot wood grill. Optional tajin, ponzu or lime, did not last long enough to take a good shot of the finished product!
