Sushi Sasabune

10 Great Spots For Sushi On The Upper East Side - New York - The Infatuation

"Before you enter Sasabune, an outpost of a popular spot in LA, you'll be scolded a little bit. Not by the chefs themselves, but by the sign outside that reads: “No spicy tuna roll. No California roll. Trust me.” Once you’re inside the relatively cramped space, however, the atmosphere is all warm hospitality. The attentive omakase experience involves chefs providing specific instructions on which pieces to dip in soy sauce and which to enjoy in their purest forms as you make your way through impressive pieces of nigiri. You won't mind a little helicopter parenting. They only want what's best for you." - hannah albertine, hillary reinsberg, neha talreja, kenny yang
