No hate to all the salmon lovers out there #sushichef #miamibeach
As a sushi chef, I don't love salmon. So many people love it for its texture, but I wanna push beyond what is normal. I want my omakazu to expand people's palates, so I serve in fish like Iwashi or Kinki. It might not be what a guest is expecting, but that's exactly how I like it.
