The Best Restaurant Dishes Eater Detroit Ate in May 2024 - Eater Detroit
"Exceptional sushi is defined by the quality of its ingredients, which is why I am a frequent visitor of the Goblin, a casual sushi bar situated in an unassuming strip mall next to a pawn shop, where the small kitchen staff prioritizes quality and meticulous preparation. The nigiri set includes six pieces of chef’s choice nigiri, which is sourced seasonally, served on koshihikari rice, renowned for its superior taste and texture that retains moisture longer. Co-owners Joseph Cho and Yosep Cho pride themselves in preparing in small batches of rice throughout the day. The ownership makes it a point to disclose where it sources its fish, which, when you take a bite, offers a buttery texture that melts in your mouth, complemented by a rich, clean flavor. A delightful umami punch from the shoyu glaze sets this sushi apart. Insider tip, ask for “pickled wasabi” and you will not be disappointed." - Serena Maria Daniels
