For our final stop in Boston, we set our hearts out on a Japanese restaurant and ended up at Fuji at Ink Block. Based on the high ratings and their very attractive menu, we just knew we had to stop by.
Starting off with a couple of appetizers, the Lobster Rangoon was spectacular. These little parcels were jam-packed with cream cheese and lobster. A great spin on your typical crab rangoon. We also wanted to try their Satay Chicken Lettuce Wraps. The chicken was very well marinated and incredibly tender. This would have been a great main entree.
For the main course, I wanted to try as many different types as possible of fish the restaurant offered so I opted in for their Fuji Don. This included tuna, tuna toro, salmon, seared salmon toro, sea urchin, eel, seared scallop, seared sweet shrimp, and micro greens over a bed of sushi rice and arugula. Each piece of fish was at its optimum quality. This was a phenomenal dish, and I was absolutely floored with the presentation.
For my final bite, I saw under their "The Finer Nigiri" there were several choices. I was told the Black Truffle Foie Gras was very popular, and my mind was made up. This came in one of the best presentations I've seen. It came encased under a glass dome with smoke. The server removed the dome, and the smoke slowly dissipated revealing the two pieces of nigiri underneath. Once again, my jaw was on the ground. At roughly $30 for these two pieces of sushi, they were stunning.
Overall, I had a great experience here at Fuji at Ink Block and would highly recommend it to any traveler or Bostonian. I can't wait to return once I'm in the area again to try their other items.
