Linguine ai Ricci di Mare @ Basta Pasta Ristorante Italiano

Linguine ai Ricci di Mare – $19.00 (smaller portion available)

Truly a delectable experience. The linguine has a bounce to it when you chew on the pasta (relatively good indication that they know how to make pasta). Not only was the pasta cooked right, but the linguine was stirred within a huge parmesan cheese mold using the heat from the pasta to slowly cover the pasta evenly with cheese in a laundry-like process. To top it off, fresh uni (sea urchin) was generously scattered below the plate with the addition of the house-made pink sauce. The pink sauce and the uni brought subtle sweetness to the uniformly covered parmesan linguine.

Uni @ Nozumi

Uni Nozumi

Uni – $8.00 (2 pieces of Nigiri)

Few Japanese restaurants give you a large partition of sea urchin like Nozumi does. Nozumi gives you whole pieces of Uni that are the freshest in town and a good indication of that is the unique sweetness of sea urchin and the lack of unpleasant sea taste.

Omakase

Omakase is not a name of a dish but a verbal consent to the chef that you trust him/her with your meal, the sushi chef picks the best of best from a variety of sea creatures. Ridiculously fresh!
