I am very surprised that Hashimoto in Mississuaga was not on this list as it is one of the best (yet priciset) sushi places. Set menu like Sishi Kaji, you need to make reservations a week in advance because they only serve 6 people er night.  It allows the chef to put all his focus into making the best dining sxperience possible, and they fly in all the ingrediates from overseas a day in advance.  Kaji and Blowfish are awesome place as well]]>

Ematei is what brings back Japan...There honestly is nothing else...Those days alone after long days and hectic commutes from Nagoya to Isumi and wherever, always make me think of Ematei...Its the place that reminds you of a night out for dinner because your too tired to make anything and want to have something really yummy and relaxing. Somehow really good sushi does that...]]>

Skip on Blowfish. My partner and I (yes gay) went there for Valentines Day, and it was the first time in my entire life I've ever had someone be bigoted towards me in a professional establishment. It was really quite offensive....]]>

Has anyone tried Simon Sushi on Spadina south of college?

Ematei is my favourite by Simon Sushi is a close second. I was surprised it was as good as it was. ]]>

It's not only Japan... each sushi regularly at good places in Seattle or Vancouver, and you will recognize the cheap stuff in Toronto as the bad stuff.

An excellent sushi place north of Queen is Mochizuki.  Bring your wallet, especially if you want to try the divine (and probably mercurial) bluefin toro.]]>

I second Tokyo Sushi. When I tried it a few years ago it was the best sushi I'd had in the city yet. I've since had good sushi at other places, but that's one of the better ones. 

"I've tried the sushi places on Bloor and I really can't understand why people rave about them so much... " 

-Because it's what they know. They hear about how great these other places are and so that's where they go, but they don't always try alternatives. Or if they do, they still think that the other places are better because that's what they've been told. It's not necessarily a matter of people not thinking for themselves, but the constant messaging tricking them.

Sad that all except one of the best "Splurge sushi" places on the list are south of Queen. Where are the other good downtown quality sushi restaurants?]]>

Can't agree with you more. 8 years in Japan ruined me for the cheap stuff as well. Not on your list, but one of my favourites (and luckily just down the end of my street) is Sushi Marche in Leslieville. Takeout only but some of the best sushi i've had. Not only that but the chef was trained in Japan by the original Iron Chef!

Tokyo Sushi, on St Joseph St, near the corner with Bay St, is also very good. Sushi is all they serve - no tempura or bento boxes in sight. The fish melts in your mouth and everything is very fresh. The price is pretty reasonable too. I've tried the sushi places on Bloor and I really can't understand why people rave about them so much... ]]>

For the record, I know several non-white people (myself included) who spent years in Japan, speak Japanese and have developed a taste for good Japanese food. Sushi snobs come in all different colours.  Good list, but I would also include Fune on Simcoe and while they don't do sushi, Kaiseki Sakura at Church and Wellesley is a must for anyone interested in dropping a couple bucks for a spectacular Japanese meal. Daisuke, the chef there, is a genius.]]>

boogie, I'm familiar with the SWPL blog. It's written by a Toronto ex-pat, and it's been all over the internet meme for a while now. Some of it is funny, but I don't think it's particularly relevant. ]]>

I'm dying to try Sushi Kaji one of these days. The local sushi restaurant, Sakura, at Yonge/Sheppard is pretty good and affordable. Been to a lot of sushi places aross Toronto and they simply have the best spicy tuna rolls around.]]>

I don't see how having an appreciation for good, authentic ethnic food (whether it be sushi, roti, pizza, or falafel) has anything to do with being caucasian. You've lost me on this one, totally. :S]]>

nice spot boogie, i was reminded of the exact same thing.  appreciation of "finer" sushi is the latest shot in the class war.  you can add in there with only liking bands that are commercially unsuccessful.

(on the other hand, i too lived in japan and do enjoy sushi, so i am wallowing in hypocrisy.  i still find it amusing though.)]]>

"But it goes beyond just food, all white people either have/will/or wished they had taught English in Japan.  It is a dream for them to go over seas and actually live in Japan.  This helps them not only because it fills their need to travel, it will enable them to gain important leverage over other white people at Sushi restaurants where they can say ?this place is pretty good, but living in Japan really spoiled me.  I?ve had such a hard time finding a really authentic place.?"

#58 Japan - it instantly came to mind is all :-p]]>

"One thing that I took for granted, however (once it became the norm), was the cuisine, and it wasn't until returning to Toronto that I realized just how difficult it is to get a decent sushi meal here without noticing the wallet getting lighter every time."

I'm pretty sure this quote was lifted directly from "Stuff White People Like"]]>
