Anyway, fantastic sushi all around over at Oribe. Upon recommendation, I had the Mino set (the one with the most sushi) which turned out to be a pretty good decision/suggestion. Their appetiser, chawanmushi and dessert are executed well but aren't quite remarkable enough to warrant ordering sets with more non-sushi/sashimi pieces. And omakase might be an option better to consider only once you've become a regular at Oribe - or you risk getting very similar pieces to what you'd get on a Mino set. .

But back to the sushi: it was wonderful. The servings are split into two sections, with the first building up from more straightforward, delicate fish into the crescendoing fattiness of the ootoro. The second features much sweeter pieces (eg. gloriously sweet Hokkaido scallops and shrimp), with a number of them torched on the top to different degrees, building the smokiness gradually through the section. What an experience! .
