On the 2nd of May 2007

Went to Ototo Sushi with Vivian to try the place out. She'd been there before and reported that the staff was unskilled but the food was very good.

That highly mixed review piqued my interest so we sauntered up there last night in a state of starvation.

The have a fairly nice Sake list. Three or four Junmai Daiginjos to choose from.

We had softshell crab (spider roll) and their special Ototo roll with lobster.

We also picked up a robata plate which had some excellent bacon wrapped scallops (small), yakitori (okay), and salmon (very good).

Their Chicken Karage was not worth repeating

Their Yam tempura used North American golden yam and not the white asian yams. As a consequence, they were chewy and overly sugary.

The sushi was phenomenal though. Very nicely made, well balanced.

We'll certainly go back. We'll go Nigiri next time.
