Dinner at Uchiko. Even Better than Uchi

Tonight we ate at Uchiko, a Japanese Farmhouse Dining restaurant. It is the alternate version of Uchi, which is a more traditional Japanese sushi restaurant. Kipp and I went without a reservation, and were seated immediately at the sushi bar. This meant that during our meal, we interacted with one of the sushi chefs who prepared some of our food.

Here is my tweet from after we finished. Photos and descriptions of the food follow.
