"Sushi doesn’t get much fresher than what’s served at Zen Sushi & Sake, which flies in seafood from Japan’s Toyosu and Fukuoka fish markets multiple days a week. Specials change based on what’s available; on recent visits, they included bluefin tuna belly and white trevally. Choose from a variety of rolls, sashimi, and soups and salads; then pair your meal with sake, shochu, or Japanese whisky. And don’t skip the mochi ice cream for dessert, which isn’t easy to come by in most restaurants around town." - Lennie Omalza
