Fried up some leftover sushi rice for a crunchy side. Added a little of @chezpim chili jam on the side for good measure.

Happy with this one. I still have an insane amount of Thai basil in the garden!
Stopped in at @hhfreshfishco at the harbor (as sho Stopped in at @hhfreshfishco at the harbor (as should you! Support harbor businesses during the bridge closure!!) and I always ask the fishmonger what's the best that day. I rarely go in with a plan.

Made temaki with minced otoro, green onions and cucumber. 

Seared the other half of the otoro very briefly and served with little dots of yuzu kosho.
We literally ordered everything on the menu @themi We literally ordered everything on the menu @themidway_s_c last night but the pasta (I mean, we didn't want to overdo it 😂). 

The server thought we were joking. Not joking. Ate it all (well, left a few pieces of squash and potato with the halibut, I hit a wall), but it was ALL SO GOOD. Even flipped the table before the 7pm reso coming in after us 🤘

Because of my severe hatred of cheese, olives and peppers,I can't usually do that but the menu accommodated me last night! So much fun.
Inspired by a combination of @richtable and @thean Inspired by a combination of @richtable and @theanchovybar: 

Hubby's homemade shokupan, toasted.  Tomato, olive oil, garlic and salt mushed up and spread on top.
