      Idk, could be expensive long term. We need more of these operations across the country. Horseradish Wasabi is crap when you've had the real deal. And I'm the kind of guy who eats pickled horseradish straight lol. It's just not the same taste. But as it is that's some pretty expensive garnish lol. Not a lot of American sushi uses Wasabi in their dishes. The American palate is just too weak for it.

    Had their stuff at Sushi Bar Montecito in SoCal. Michelin Star sushi spot and boy… does that real wasabi HIT SO DIFFERENT!!! not so much a nasal-y fume type thing, it’s not even spicy tbh it just REALLY makes the fish taste so much better, it’s more of a taste enhancer than a spice which was a big shocker. Them THANGS are EXPENSIVE though so only expect it to be served at high end spots
    Grind on shark skin right in front of you cause the grind activates stuff in them that gives them their flavor which only lasts about 5-10 minutes after you grind it
