I used to enjoy sitting at a sushi bar ordering piece by piece, but that doesn't seem to happen around here anymore. You get a list of sushi and a pencil, and you check off what you want. My sushi was all served together on one plate, and actually I'm glad it was because the presentation was beautiful. I ordered salmon (which I always do), salmon eggs, yellowtail, and albacore. A little ponzu sauce was sprinkled on the fish for a hint of citrus, and the plate came with a thick lemon slice that I squeezed onto the salmon. The salmon eggs seemed to be saltier than usual, so I squeezed some lemon onto my second one and didn't dip it into the soy sauce. That helped. The surprise was the albacore. It came with finely sliced red onion on top. I haven't seen that at a sushi bar before, but it was delicious. To my surprise, the albacore was the star on my plate.
