(Critics) Is it any wonder that the maguro sashimi is one of the most popular menu items at Uchi? Just look at those tender, rich chunks of tuna, drizzled with pumpkin seed oil. Locally-sourced goat cheese, paper-thin Fuji apples, and a dash of cracked pepper round out the flavors and textures of this dish. Paired with a glass of crisp white wine, or one of Uchi's various sakes...you'll wish you could freeze this culinary moment in time.

(Critics) I agree with Laura that this is indeed a Dishola. This isn't your typical sashimi, but I promise you'll love it--that is if you love goat cheese and apples with your tuna. My dining partner thought it was sacrilege to pair these flavors. I said, "Excellent! The rest is for me!"
If you're afraid to stray from traditional sashimi and sushi, give this a try. It's fabulous. -

I could eat this every single day of my life. If it weren't for the existence of cupcakes and champagne, this might be part of my last meal

I will literally eat anything that Tyson Cole cooks (or doesn't cook, given that he is primarily a sushi chef). He's best when you let him send out whatever he wants to, but if you choose from Uchi's permanent menu (i.e., dishes always offered), you won't go wrong with the silky maguro sashimi and goat cheese. The combination--respecting the spirit of Japan but with an American twist--is like no other.
