Sometimes the thought of going out on a Saturday night is enough to keep you firmly rooted on your couch in front of Law and Order SVU; the noise, the crowds, the lack of parking spots, the waiting time for a table… But the thought of sitting at home with no food is just too terrible, so you venture out.
Beecroft is a quiet neck of the woods, especially on a Saturday night. Perfect. Yo Sushi is a new Japanese place in the arcade and our 7.30pm arrival gives us half an hour until closing time. Yep. Really rockin’ here in Beecroft, but you know what? That’s ok. Yesterday, I spent the day watching a doco on Prince Charles, baking a raspberry tart and knitting, so I’m well into my seventies.
The staff is friendly and assures us that they won’t be closing around us.
The pork Gyoza were scrummy. A bargain for only $7.
I am not the biggest fan of tempura, but this was the best tempura I have ever had. It was so light and audibly crispy.
The hallmark of a fine Japanese establishment is its sashimi. The sashimi was super – fresh and dense. Again, a steal for only $10.
Yo Sushi will definitely be getting another visit from us soon. Next time: udon, sushi and katsu.
