Tojo's - my sushi epiphany in Vancouver

Tojo's http://www.tojos.com/ in Vancouver had come highly recommended to me.

I've heard Tojo called the Nobu of the north.

If you love sushi, the meal to get is the "Omakase" at Tojos. Basically you are letting the chef (Tojo) serve whatever he likes. There were three price points from $50-150 a person. Upon recommendation I did not hesitate and ordered the $150 Omakase.

Epiphany is the word I need to use to describe what was served to me. If you consider yourself a sushi lover, THIS IS THE NEW GOD/TEMPLE OF SUSHI. Sushi in Japan did not come close to Tojo's.

I've never really appreciated the salmon sushi I've had, but here it is an unworldly delicious experience.

Yes there were a couple of ok items in the 12 items I was served, but then again 10 epiphanies out of 12 is not too shabby.
