"You aren’t going to mistake Omakase by Korami for an ultra-luxe spot where the fish is obscure and the rice is treated like it’s having a spa day. But for a middle-of-the-road option, it’s a solid pick. On the surface, this Hell’s Kitchen restaurant is indistinguishable from the dozens of other sub-$100 omakase places scattered across Manhattan. There are 10 stools around a U-shaped counter, where they serve a 15-course, $89 meal with a 60-minute time limit. But is that Shania Twain on stereo? Respectable choice. And are those chives pressed into the rice under a big piece of yellowtail? They are, and they add an herbal kick. The name tags on the chefs are also a nice touch, and the torched sable is silky as foie gras. Even if the rice is a bit dry, this is still a fun way to blow a chunk of money on above-average sushi. photo credit: Bryan Kim photo credit: Bryan Kim photo credit: Bryan Kim" - Bryan Kim
