Ume

This place is a like a hidden gem tucked in the middle of the hustle bustle of NYC. The moment you walk inside, you instantly feel calm by its zen surroundings. You’re sitting on the floor cushions and tatami mat, soaking in the view of its zen garden. The tray of omakase array of sushi is like a work of art, so beautiful and so delicious. Loved the concept of a deconstructed meal where I got to pick which salt I wanted to accompany each piece of exceptionally beautiful sushi, and place it on top of sushi rice that I got to scoop onto a piece of precut nori. How fun was that!
