I had never tried Sushi before this visit and I wasn't sure what to expect. The clean and umami-forward taste hit immediately and made sense of the dish in a way descriptions never quite do. dashi stock is an ingredient I'd not encountered used quite like this before.

Some dishes exist to comfort and Sushi is absolutely in that category. The deeply savoury quality works on something almost primal — you feel the warmth of it immediately. dashi stock does work that no substitute can replicate.
