Like Yotosuba, they fly their fish in from Tokyo several times per week. I'm almost positive Hatsune doesn't do that.
O.K. moondog, I'm going to have to try your place over in Blue Castle (is this the one I never found that day you were going to Seoul?). I'm pretty happy with Hatsune, however that's when compared to the sea of garbage that is called sushi here in Beijing. I've eaten at Hatsune about 4x's in the last 10 days, and considering that I live way the heck out here in Wudaokou, you know it's a heckuva a haul out to the Guanghua Bridge
