Sushi Yoshi *Vermont*

I know it's not in NJ but it's sushi and it was good, so here it goes.

Sushi Yoshi

February I was up in Killington, VT for an annual group skiing and snowboarding trip. Our last night in town on Saturday night, we chose Sushi Yoshi for a group dinner. They have table service for sushi, a separate hibachi section (that was booked until midnight!) and a small but lively bar area.  I ordered the Yellowtail with scallions Roll (of course) and a Rainbow Roll. As described by their menu, a Rainbow Roll was a California Roll wrapped in 6 slices of fresh fish which in my case was tuna, salmon and what I believe to be white fish.

The husband ordered tuna sashimi and we both agreed our tuna looked funny…but not color wise. It was more like extremely pressed looking but its smelled fine and the color was great so we felt safe eating it.  I’m glad I did because the Rainbow Roll was fantastic. Fish tasted fresh and the size of it was definitely a generous portion (and for $16.95 it should be).  Yellowtail with scallions Roll did not disappoint either.  So while this restaurant was pricey, it was a tourist locale so it was expected. Considering it might be the only sushi place in town, I had no problem spending a few extra $.
