Yes, here again in Sushi Kita, for birthday celebration with the sushi gang, after our June and January’s visits!
I always visit sushiya during winter-spring, because of the fatty fish. I guess this would be my first time in a sushiya for a summer-ish course! And Yes, Chef Yogi excelled it again!
Sushi and sake, always the perfect match. First thing first, a bottle of sake! Luck was on our side, or maybe with the birthday girl! There was this 山本 NO 7 純米吟醸 (Yamamoto No 7 Junmai Ginjo) in the house. Of course, we had to order!
Super delighted with this bottle of No 7. Strong aroma with elegant acidity, full of character! I could still remember its yogurt-y taste – on the first sip, and later on it transformed into different profiles after some time as we ate. It was just purely amazing, packed with umami-ness and matched well with our nigiri.
