I ate at one of the best sushi restaurants in the US, and I never knew that fish could be so flavorful

Sushi Nakazawa is widely considered to be one of the best sushi restaurants in the US - it even has a coveted four-star review from the New York Times.

The restaurant, located in New York City's West Village, is helmed by sushi chef Daisuke Nakazawa, a disciple of Jiro Ono (as in "Jiro Dreams of Sushi" fame).

Nakazawa serves a 20-course Omakase sushi menu that changes almost daily, depending on what fish is freshest. A meal costs $120 per person.

The restaurant is famously hard to get into - you have to book a reservation 30 days in advance - but I managed to snag a table there. I had high expectations, but the sushi and the dining experience still blew me away. I never knew that sushi could be so diverse and flavorful.
