"Perhaps no kitchen voyeurism is quite as rewarding as watching a top-notch sushi chef slice, brush, and shape nigiri, especially when dining alone. Zilla Sake House on Alberta specializes in immaculately prepared seasonal fish, as well as an eye-popping selection of sake. Note: Zilla offers seating at two bars on opposite ends of the restaurant, but only one features sushi chefs in action — the other is a cocktail bar, though ordering food here is welcome." - Nathan Williams
