Roll Call
Let’s be honest: I take my sushi very seriously. I want it fresh, I want it pretty, and ideally, I want it in a dimly lit booth with moody lighting and a cocktail that looks like it came from a perfume ad. Sushi is more than food-it’s art, it’s vibe, and occasionally, it’s a full personality trait.
