So sushi... a staple meal, really. Perfect for a date - first, second or third (although a tad overused in my opinion) but not always so perfect for delivery. Forget about ordering anything tempura - it ends up steaming itself in the closed container and all that remains is soggy fried bits in the maki rolls. Yech. Fortunately, I have found a delightful, delivery-friendly item that has recently become all too convenient - the salmon tartare from Sushi Wabi in the West Loop.
As tartares go, the salmon is raw and diced and in this case, mixed with shallots, ginger mayo and served with wonton chips. The chips are only slightly savory and perfectly balance the rich and velvety salmon.
And for those of you who read Anthony Bourdain's No Reservations, I love this appetizer so much that I commit the cardinal sin of sushi ordering and have it delivered on Mondays. So far, so good =)
