Sushi San in Jamsil is one of the better-known mid-tier sushi places. Getting a sushi reservation is really tough these days, but I managed to book ahead and make it there. It’s been a while, though, so there are bits I don’t remember all that well. And there was just so much of it..

I was stuffed right through dessert. The value for money is so good that maybe that’s why sushi places do better than fine dining. Still, doing so well that you can’t get a booking is a bit… nothing for it but to reserve well, well in advance.
