Our luck in eating out hasn't been much good recently. In fact, I guess I'm starting to get a bit ornery about the whole thing. So the Missus decided it was time for an intervention. And She chose just the right place……Sushi Tadokoro.
What follows are mostly just photos….I've posted on the place enough already.
The sashimi was just perfect, the amaebi were just delivered as we sat. The heads were still moving the entire time we ate our sashimi. Some may find this somewhat disconcerting. We saw this as a mark of freshness. The engawa was a favorite of the Missus.
We always get something a bit different on every visit. This time it was the Kamasu – barracuda, which was seared to develop the wonderful oils.
The Iwashi (Sardine) was especially rich.
Like I've said before….getting this is not difficult. The Itamae has to be comfortable and familiar with your tastes and even budget. Your responsibility is to be an open-minded customer. After a couple of visits, he, and you have an unspoken understanding…..
