Sushi in the Buffalo NY area
Submitted by Mr. Michael Vass, a contributing author.
So you are in Western New York, in Buffalo on business or pleasure. If you are like me you may want to go out and enjoy the restaurants in the area. One of my favorite items to have is Sushi. I first tried sushi back in 1998 and have been a major fan since. But where might a sushi fan go in Buffalo, New York?
Well I noticed this review that answers this question. It covers a new restaurant Sea Bar. The primary sushi chef Mike Andrzejewski is well known, having worked at Oliver’s, Warren’s, Rue Franklin and Tsunami and is quite capable with dishes ranging from classical French, American contemporary to Asian fusion. Sea Bar is located on Main Street in the village of Williamsville.
While some may be interested in the décor, which the article by Marla Baykan covers in depth, I prefer to stick with the selection. I think the description given in this article will leave you ready for a meal immediately.
“Next was the Chef’s Selection of Sashimi. What an impressive plate! More than 10 selections of seafood, two bites of each—perfect for sharing. The colors and shapes with differing heights and sheens were beautiful just to look at. Under the seafood was a bed of seaweed salad and shaved carrots and radishes. The generous offering included blue marlin, which was lightly dusted with sesame, seaweed flakes and red spice, melt-in-your-mouth salmon, sweet crab and shrimp, and firm, muscular octopus. The choice continued with some of my favorites—sweet red and wasabi tobiko (flying fish roe), served on a fresh Maine diver scallop, and three types of tuna: albacore, ahi and yellowtail. Those who love sushi will be pleased with the fresh array of seafood. For those who have yet to try sushi, Sea Bar’s Chef’s Selection is a perfect place to start.”
I’ve left out the comments on the ample wine and sake selections, the maki specialty rolls, or the Volcano Noodles. I believe that between this tease and the article, you may find yourself planning a trip out to the Buffalo area.
You might even see me there too.
