David Ellis raved over a tiny no-booking bar with a dozen seats which serves “London’s best sushi”, the latest opening in the nascent Notting Hill empire from Chris D’Sylva, across the road from Dorian, his “mothership”.
Fish “better than I have ever had in London” brought a look of “ecstatic bliss” to the face of David’s missus – “one I’ve never seen before, which was a bit of an ego blow.”
“Even miso soup”, he said, “was above any other I’ve had. It could fuel an army, cure a hospital ward, ease grief.” And unlike a lot of sushi bars, the atmosphere was not one of quiet reverence: instead, the place “hums with music, bottles are constantly being opened… Everyone is having fun.”
