Doing this episode was a rollercoaster… finally got my hands on Jiro Sushi and it was the best spicy tuna so far 🔥

This is Episode 7 of my series looking for the best sushi in the Greater Boston area— and by sushi I mean what you voted for: nigiri and spicy tuna maki. Jiro was HIGHLY requested, but it is takeout only, requires atleast 1h in advance, seels out early and doesn’t open on Sundays.

Worth it? Watch the full episode.

Finally tried Krasi… didn’t go as expected 🫠

Did I get the wrong things?

Apologies for bad video quality on this one — there was zero light in there — but the content is worth the watch!

This is Episode 8 of looking for the Best Sushi in Boston series — using nigiri + spicy tuna maki as the control combo. Download the full matrix in my bio.

Uni has won Best Sushi in Boston multiple times — but also shows up as one of the most controversial picks in my chart. I skipped the $250 omakase and ordered off the regular menu… and while there were a couple standouts, most of it didn’t justify the steep price.

If you have tried the Omakase that is only available Thursday nights, would love to hear your take below!

Watch til the end — because this might be the closest you can get to “high-end” omakase while still being able to pay rent.

Episode 9 of my series looking for the best sushi in the greater Boston area. This time reviewing @tastesushico in Newton, one of my long-time favorites. This place proves that when technique and ingredients are right, simplicity actually outshines the flashy stuff.

If you love clean, restrained, more authentic sushi this will hit. If you prefer complex, western-style rolls… this is not the place for that.

In my career I’ve been to scores of large group dinners, but few can surpass last night’s Penfolds dinner honoring Jacques Pepin on his 90th birthday. It was held at Under-Study the new restaurant next to Press in Saint Helena. Obviously you can’t order the same dinner at Press but what it showed me is that Philip Tessier and his crew are among the best in the Bay Area. Less

San Francisco has always been known for its fine dining prowess. The newly opened Wolfsbane adds even more legitimacy to that assertion. Owners Rupert and Carrie Blease offer a 10 to 12 course tasting menu ($248) with five snacks to begin-including artichokes with sunflowers-and about as many to end. In between are such masterful dishes as chilled seafood served on an ice block, cabbage with house made buttermilk and sea urchin, striped bass in a frothy vanilla emulsion, grilled lobster, and duck breast with figs.
