SUGARFISH by sushi nozawa

"As you can imagine, the clientele at the Sugarfish in the most stuck up part of town is not, how do you say, chill. The first and only time I worked here, a man and his much younger female companion put their name on the list and I quoted them an hour. He proceeded to try to slip me a $100 bill and when I refused (I was genuinely afraid this was an Undercover Boss sting operation), he told me, “This is why you’ll never succeed in life,” and walked away. But there is something special about this location, which is that there’s a secret restaurant in the back here, Nozawa Bar. It’s very exclusive, much more expensive, and you’ll get 22 courses of sushi that runs the gamut from expected to adventurous." - kat hong
