To say I’m surprised I spent time on this Los Angeles list would be an understatement.
If you’ve followed any of my content (jesus, I hate that word), you’d likely know my feeling on the City of Angels.
I rooted for the sharknado, and that was before the Dodgers won/horseshoe-up-their-assed a world series from my beloved Blue Jays.
Unfortunately, the truth is that LA has a fantastic sushi scene. In fact, they seem to have avoided the deluge of chalkboard omakase sushiya that dot the sidewalks of New York. Do you know how hard this list was to put together when the number of courses and prices change so frequently?
And do you know how happy that makes me? That’s how Omakase should be.
Some guidelines to avoid the angry deluge of emails: the courses are approximate and can change nightly based on a host of factors. The pricing doesn’t include gratuities (which is included at some sushiya, extra at others – so tip generously). And to qualify, a restaurant has to offer an Omakase AND it must have some nigiri. Now, “Omakase” translates loosely as “leave it to you”, so some people will try and tell you sushi doesn’t have to be included. My response to that is: my list, my rules.
Cheers as always.
