blue ribbon sushi bar & grill


58th (8/9)

y&a know where to eat. they know what to order. follow their lead and you'll never go wrong. derek and i headed up to midtown for an amazing meal at blue ribbon sushi bar and grill. y&a brought the baby, who was doted on by the staff (thus the stroller-friendly tag). service, overall, was super friendly and helpful - standard for a high-end japanese restaurant in the city. we started with melt-in-your-mouth miso marinated black cod, then duck meatball noodle soup. the fried chicken with wasabi honey was also excellent.

my favorite, however, was the bone marrow with teriyaki sauce. so good. while enjoying the deliciousness, we started wondering about who in history first decided to split open bones and roast the marrow. then we started lamenting the thought that there were bones in the world that were going unsplit and unroasted... anyway, derek and i weren't very good at portioning out the marrow for the bread. we had leftover marrow and no more bread. the good news though, is that our next dish was the oxtail fried rice, so we added our leftover to the rice. delicious. decadent. i can't wait to go back!
