New Omakase in New York just opened last week! 89đȘ14 dishes
Thereâs a brand-new omakase spot near Chinatownâand guess what? The chef used to work at Nakazawa! đ€Ż It just opened last week, and I was lucky enough to check it outâcan confirm, the quality is seriously impressive! đ Value for Money đ $89 for 14 courses? Thatâs such a steal in Manhattan, no joke! The fish quality is top-notchâsuper fresh, you can practically taste the ocean in every bite. The Hokkaido uni was a standoutâso sweet and creamy, it melted on my tongue đ. And donât even get me started on the squidâit was incredibly tender ïŒwith that perfect slight chew. So good I almost forgot to take a photo! đ Flavors đ What I loved most is that the fish is lightly seasonedâno heavy sauces to mask the natural taste. Itâs all about letting the ingredients shine, which is exactly how good omakase should be! And their sushi rice? Chefâs kiss đ©đłđ Itâs warm, with each grain separate but just slightly sticky (the ideal texture!), and the vinegar flavor is bold enough to cut through the delicate fish. The balance is chefâs kissâthe rice and fish play off each other so well. đ Dining Experience đ The pace is pretty quickâwe wrapped up in under 1.5 hoursâbut honestly, I kind of loved it! No awkward long waits between courses; itâs just one delicious piece after another, which made the meal feel satisfying and lively. Perfect if youâre hungry or donât want to spend hours at the counter! đ Zen Sushi Omakase 235 Eldridge St, New York, NY 10002 #NewYork #NYC #NewYorkFoodGuide #Omakase #NYCOmakase #ManhattanOmakase #AffordableOmakaseNYC #NYCOmakaseRecommendations #NYCFood #NYCFoodRecommendations #NYCJapaneseFood
