Beluga

Wednesday April 4
No, we didn't have caviar for dinner. It's the name of the restaurant in Hyde Park that Shari took us out to (thanks, Shari!) after an AIA lecture that evening. Neo-neo, bars lit from underneath, the symphony conductor with that week's soloist at the next table. As you would guess, it's a fish place, so we dove right in.
They do a nice line in sushi, so our appetizers were: a winter roll (crab and avocado wrapped in a thin layer of white tuna) and some à la carte sashimi: grilled eel, squid, toro, tuna, and mackerel. Dinners were: California roll, sashimi of tuna, yellowfin, and salmon, plus some nori sushi of shrimp, mackerel; and grilled ahi tuna in a puddle of delicious sauce whose nature I forget, with some nori rolls on the side. All beautifully prepared, and exquisite in taste.
We'd go back to Beluga again anytime.
