Village 8 Louisville Exclusives presents 'Jiro Dreams of Sushi' [Movies]

April 16, 2012 - 10:46am

Being the true story of the passion of the world's greatest sushi chef.

Sushi… What other food comes in so many different varieties? It is beautiful to behold – colorful, vibrant, artwork on a platter. I like mine with cream cheese and avocado and eel and roe. Set aside the soy sauce – an expertly prepared roll needs no help. The idea of raw fish may be disconcerting, but once that mental block is put away, one finds that the sweet, succulent flesh of our water-borne friends needs no fire to be enjoyed.

Sweet, Sweet Sapporo [Food & Dining]

Mango sushi and flaming presentation make Sapporo a tried and true favorite.

Some say sushi has become about as overdone as cupcakes or bacon or any other trendy food that comes and goes. I say, who could ever get tired of sushi?

Making it BIG at Oishii Sushi [Food&Dining]

November 21, 2011 - 12:00pm

by Elizabeth Orrick

Oishii is a small place with a BIG taste and BIG rolls. With a second location recently opened down the road, they seem to have made it big.

What can I say, I like big things. Resist the "that's what she said joke"; I'm serious. I like giant burgers dripping with cheese and mayonnaise. I like towering ice cream cones drizzled with chocolate sauce and chopped cashews. And I LOVE big sushi, the kind of sushi you have to strain your jaw to chomp down on.

Dining out: Wild about sushi [Food & Dining]

April 5, 2011 - 3:16pm

by Steve Coomes

When Wild Ginger Sushi Bistro opened just a few doors from Sapporo Japanese Steakhouse in October 2010, some questioned whether that Highlands stretch of Bardstown Road could support another sushi-centered restaurant. So far the answer is undoubtedly yes.

Thunder Over Louisville was better from Indiana side [Thunder Over Louisville]

April 19, 2010 - 11:02am

by Steve Coomes

Thunder kicks off the Kentucky Derby Festival, but when you have access to some of the best parties, it's best enjoyed from the Indiana side of the river.

If you were among the shivering, huddled masses squeezed cheek-to-jowl inside the public viewing areas for Saturday's Thunder Over Louisville, I can say, honestly, that I have shared your pain.

Notice, I used past tense, "have," because this year was completely different.

In search of cheap sushi

July 1, 2009 - 7:12am

by Dana McMahan

Investigating super happy hour at Maido

I have a few addictions in life, some cheap (York patties) and some not (international travel). And then there are those in between that can keep me from my travels — namely sushi. I could eat it every day for the rest of my life.

Keeping the stimulus money home: Oasis Sushi Bar

April 15, 2009 - 7:03am

by Dana McMahan

Each week Dana McMahan will spend her payroll stimulus at a local business. This week, half price sushi on Preston.

When my husband and I traded our rental in the Highlands for home ownership in the ‘217 we knew what we were giving up – among other pleasures, the ability to walk to a sushi dinner. So I was giddy when the sign went up late last fall on Preston Highway announcing a sushi restaurant opening soon. Sushi on Preston! The dreary no-man’s land of day-labor, fast food and dry cleaners south of Eastern Parkway would finally offer more than a quick route to the airport.
