San Francisco is a coastal city. Therefore it would be a pity if we did not try some fresh seafood here.
Someone suggested Akikos, a Japanese sushi place located on Bush Street, in the financial district of San Francisco.
However, the restaurant does not even have a sign anywhere. But it was full and all booked up weeks in advance.
We had made arrangement to meet with a few friends for lunch at this popular Japanese restaurant.
We had some problem getting a reservation but someone had inside connection and was able to get us in this time.
.
The restaurant has been around for a more than twenty years.
We invited E. to this lunch. He loves sushi!
Therefore, he jumped at the invite, pulling himself off from his work in the middle of the day and came and joined us there for lunch.
Our friend is an excellent chef himself.
He knows Japanese cuisines very well and he was doing the ordering for us.
It was an outstanding sushi feast with many dishes which we had never even heard of.
They were absolutely delicious.
I am not a big fan of raw fish food.
But I tried a couple pieces of raw sushi. They were OK.
My friend ordered some cooked fish for me and they were just out of this world!
There was some new food items which I never tried before and were presented beautifully and served to us.
There was a very delicate dessert served in a bowl, not even sure what it was called.
I have had tempura numerous times in the past, but the tempura we were served at this restaurant was very delicate and tasty.
It was a feast liked no other! We enjoyed a master style Sushi dinner and were served a meal which we will remember and talk about for a long time. It was a class all by itself!
