Calm down, Marcus. It was a serious question.

I’m quite comfortable being miserable. At least I don’t like a & m.

I don’t want to be cool.

Glad you enjoyed your lunch.

Those are oyster shooters. You can add a quail egg into them for $1.

The nigiri with the little brown squares on top is scallop topped with seared foie gras- one of the best things I’ve had there.

Thanks; I've had it before but obviously not enough to identify it. And you're right, it was the best thing in that sampler.

Place here does ‘apps’ from the sushi bar and they get pretty creative with yellowtail.

That's a very bold statement, but quite possibly true.

If that would have been in Baton Rouge 9 years ago I would have left not just beaten but broke too! Happy to see some cutting edge we’ll executed sushi in Baton Rouge.

100% agree. Umami and Marcellos were 1A/1B for me, and now that Marcellos is gone it’s all Umami.

Umami & Maison Lacour are my Top 2 and there's a little gap before #3.

Only a handful of what we ordered tonight, but great as always.
