   Sushi Dojo is a great under $100 omakase option in NYC! I loved how they featured Tasmanian ocean trout and artic char as most places will just have salmon. While the three are closely related, artic char is less fatty than salmon leading to its more translucent appearance, less defined white lines, and milder yet still delicious flavor.

   Sushi Dojo is the one omakase I’ve had with tomato that I felt was well executed, as often times the acidity of tomatoes overpower the fish. Frying the tomato reduces the acidity and gives a more savory flavor alongside a crunchy texture to contrast with the melt in your mouth feeling from the king salmon.

   I will say I wasn’t a huge fan of the seared botan ebi. Raw botan ebi has a tender mouth feel, while cooking it causes it to be more chewy. Nonetheless, an amazing experience at Sushi Dojo and a great deal for 17 courses at $98.

2. Definitely just gave you a follow 👍 love your description about arctic char. I’m always looking for it since it’s not used as often and I love that they also served the ocean trout differently too
