A Love Letter to Hatcho


Haribut, grolirous, haribut!

Dear Hatcho,
I love you. I love the way you shout "Issirrimasee!" when I arrive, I love your live sweet shrimp. Most of all, I love when you have fresh halibut with the proper accompaniments. The ponzu sauce and the mixture of grated radish, chili paste and bonito flakes is so amazing with the sweet fish and fresh green onions. Every time I feel like I have tried all of the Japanese food there is in the world and nothing could ever be so new and intriguing, you surprise and delight me. Thank you for your kind servers, your kaiseki menu, your oysters that are the size of a 5th grader's shoe and the incredible octopus and green apple salad.
Domo arigaato gozaimasita,
Comida

Update: Hatcho is no longer good. The owner, who is a charming host, has tried her hand at sushi. Her slicing is less than masterful. Also, freshness and quality are slipping. And, insulted as well as injured, American Express is no longer accepted.
