I had a leisurely, 2 and a half hour lunch at Ajisai today! My friend is close friends with the owner, so we got to taste a lot of things that weren't on the menu. In particular, I liked:

-flounder fin
-hamachi belly (this is fast becoming my favourite!)
-geoduck killed when we ordered it
-the freshest, sweetest uni
-an incredible piece of Japanese mackerel (again, I've never had mackerel this fresh)
-mountain potato with unagi
-monkfish liver

We ate a lot more...including a beautiful platter of assorted sashimi. I was in heaven today! It's been awhile since I'd been to Ajisai and I'd forgotten how good the sashimi is (very reasonable too!)

The chef also dusted my ika and scallop nigiri with yuzu--a gift he got from Japan!
