If I was forced to choose one food I had to eat everyday, it would be sushi. Been going to Kirara on and off for many years. Like most places, the food quality is inconsistent. But recently, it got good again. I definitely recommend giving it a try.

The Serious Eats Sushi Roll

The best place for sushi along the central coast of California is Akaoni in Carmel-by-the-Sea. It is wonderful! This is a sushi bar in the classic Japanese style. The chef, Shinichi Yamada, was trained the traditional way in Japan and creates wonderful, delicious dishes with amazing skill. He buys his fish daily and never serves anything that isn't fresh. Beautifully prepared, I find the sushi and sashimi to be excellent. Shinichi’s sashimi presentations are something to see, especially the spanish mackerel.

He just recently got a some matsutake mushrooms from Big Sur and served them either in a delicious broth (served in a teapot) or as matsutake and uni tempura. Unfortunately, this mushroom is only available for one month out of the year. But this is an example of the love and dedication he puts into his food.

The Serious Eats Sushi Roll

My favorite sushi in the Chicago area -- some of the best sushi I've had outside Japan -- is in the suburbs, a few blocks from the house I grew up in.

In the same shopping center (there's also a Japanese supermarket there) is a takeout fish market that has even better, fresher sushi than the restaurant.
