Dustin's first experience with sushi was with his cousins Sarah and Johnny in Sacramento. There was much eaten and lots of sake to go around. And of course with good sake comes GREAT conversation. Thanks again Johnny and Sarah!
We wanted to share our dining experience with all of you so... we took pictures and got the menu descriptions of what we tried.
Our first course was from left to right; Island Style Seafood Poke Sampler (Ahi, Salmon, Tako, Maui Onions, Tomatos, Wakame and Kiaware Sprouts tossed in Poke Sauce), Edamame (immature soybeans baked, cooled, and lightly salted), and Sansei's Special Sushi Role (Spicy Crab, Cilantro and fresh veggies, dusted with Funkake and serviced with Sweet Thai Chili Sauce).
The second course was Traditional Miso Soup
The third course was Panko Crusted Ahi Sashimi Sushi Roll (Sashimi grade Hawaiian Ahi, Arugula and Spinach wrapped into a sushi roll, panko crusted , flash fried and served with Sansei's mild soy wasabi butter sauce.
The fourth course was Japanese Calamari Salad (Calamari fritte tossed in spicy kochujang vinaigrette over nalo greens in a crispy won ton basket.)
The fifth course was Sansei's Asian Shrimp Cake and Miso Garlic Prawns (Sansei's award winning shrimp cake crusted with crispy chinese noodles and grilled miso garlic prawns, served with ginger lime chili butter and cilantro pesto)
The sixth course was Sansei's Lobster and Crab Ravioli (ravioli stuffed with sweet lobster, blue crab and shrimp , served with rich truffle butter sauce.) This was the first time that Dustin and I had either tried a real truffle.
The seventh and final course was Matsuhisa Style Miso Butterfish (Tender butterfish marinated and roasted in sake and sweet miso.)
