Having grown up in Hawaii, I have been around the freshest of the freshest seafood and am very picky when it comes to good sushi. Having the freshest seafood is what makes great sushi and the Ritz Carlton's Bistro 24 has it. I have tried other so called sushi places around Phoenix with terrible results. However, on the bright side, I am thinking that maybe the Ritz isn't the only place that gets dibs on the freshest fish. I am sure the Phoenician does, as well as all of the other top tier Resorts. Then it gets trickled down to all of the other establishments in the Valley from highest to lowest...catch my drift? Just a reminder, if you see a sushi place where there are Asians preparing it, jump on it. I don't mean to put race into the mix by any means, nor do I think only Asians can create good sushi (the chef at the Ritz was Caucasian), but when it comes to sushi, it is really an art form, and unless it was passed down from generations before you or you went to the Culinary Institute of America....well, you know what I'm saying...
