Best Sushi Place in Kingston

Hands down Izumo Sushi. The owners Kevin and Amy are very friendly and have set up their shop west of Princess and University in a superbly cozy and calming way. I used to love going in during lunch hours when the place is quiet and order a sashimi lunch (for about $13) and enjoy the moment of peace to myself until Kevin started having back problems and no longer operates the restaurant during lunch hours. Yet, I still try my best to eat out and visit whenever I felt like quality food and spending quality moments with friends. From my conversation with Kevin, he used to work in a sushi place in Toronto and decided to come here to spread his own wings. I have seen him making sushi behind the bar and the way he does it looks very professional ( at least to me). He is not as fast as the sushi chef in Kaji in Toronto in making sushi but his techniques look similar. Kaji is by far the best sushi place I have been to. It is a place that embraces traditions, creativity and quality all together and every dish looks like the prettiest pictures you can ever dream of. I am excited to go to Japan one day and check out real, traditional, local sushi places so that I can become more familiar with the techniques of making sushi. Sushi is one of my favorite food of all time. It is so simple, yet so delicate and subtle. I believe sushi is an art and eating cheap sushi is simply not the way to go.
