Best damn fajitas you’ll eat here!

Kata Robata is the best sushi my spouse and I have ever had, and we’re ex-New Yorkers that have also eaten sushi in Tokyo, Seoul, Jeju, Hawaii, and LA. Kata tops that list, shockingly. UChi is great too, but in a more experimental modern way, whereas Kata is just straight up high class traditional.

For non-sushi, Coltivare is also amazing.

Agreed with Kata Robata

Dry. Acidic nose. But for $10 this wine is amazing. Where else can you find a ‘14 vintage for that cost. I Get nectarine hints maybe plum. Very little body. Mild tannin; I wouldn’t mind putting out for guests. If you’re going for something dry, acidic, in the red department, can’t complain. I picked this one up from Trader Joe’s. Hope you find this helpful!
