Place yourself in the chef's hands, and you'll leave in a blissful state of sushi euphoria every time. For sushi enthusiasts, Yasu is an experience unlike like any other. The chef's choice of sake perfectly paired with each evenings menu, served in glasses cradled in a traditional wooden masu box, is a delightful trip through the various styles of Japanese rice wine and well worth the price. The trio of akami, chūtoro, and ōtoro Bluefin Tuna from Mexico melts in your mouth and the house smoked Bonito from Hokkaido is sublime. The menu is a seasonally changing selection of 18 impeccably fresh pieces of edomae sushi for $135 per person, which can include Mackerel from Norway, Lobster from Nova Scotia, Uni from Vancouver and Boston, Snow Crab from Greenland and Shirako from Hokkaido. My favourite omakase in Toronto, I am drawn to Yasu like a moth to a sushi flame, and have to satisfy my raw fish cravings every few months. Seasonal ingredients are prepared at the sushi bar and served immediately for maximum flavour and freshness, for a true omakase sushi experience, made to order right in front of you and served a single bite at a time. In short, Yasu is all about capturing the essence of sushi. He uses classical methods to draw out the umami of seafood, with fish that is freshly sliced and placed atop warm, loose rice then brushed with a touch of nikiri soy for a perfectly balanced bite. Yasu took this opportunity to return to the roots of sushi, in which simplicity was the key ingredient in bringing out the taste of the sea. The city's first sushi-only omakase restaurant, Yasuhisa's edict is simple - "In a global world where borders are becoming seamless, Toronto can now have access to the freshest seafood like what we have in Japan. Find unique places to stay with local hosts in 191 countries. Tucked in a narrow white room on Harbord Street, Osaka-raised chef-owner Yasuhisa Ouchi delivers glistening sushi, one piece at a time, to 10 guests seated at his marble-topped bar, Yasu. 16 Sept 2022 - Rent from people in Yasu, Japan from 17/night.
