New York’s First Kosher Sushi—Brilliant!
By Doug Singer
The higher end of New York’s sushi landscape is dotted few and far between with omakase-style restaurants. Butterfish has taken the plunge into different waters and is now boasting the city's first kosher omakase. Partnering with Joey Allaham, a recognized name in the kosher restaurant world, has proven to be an extremely prudent choice for Butterfish and the results have people lining up for what continues to be a stellar selection of only the freshest jewels from a variety of worldwide waters.
Situated on Madison Avenue between 55th and 56th street in the iconic Sony building, the sushi at Butterfish is served Tokyo-style, with the rice warm and the fish cool, making it melt in your mouth, well, like butter!
New additions to the incredible selection of world-class sushi include eclectic cooked offerings like the Veal Sweetbread Roll (watercress, asparagus, garlic aioli) and the rather unique Curry Fennel Prosciutto sushi.
This unusual pairing of an authentic Japanese sushi restaurant under the strict Kosher supervision of the Orthodox Union (OU) is something that simply must be tried. The exceptionally gifted Chef Hitoshi Saito, creates a remarkable selection of artfully crafted, new age sushi that delights customers on a daily basis. If you want to step it up a level, make reservations to dine at “Hitoshi’s Table”, a unique chef’s table experience.
