Jerk Chicken and nori? Soy sauce? Wasabi? Yes please.

This is what jerk chicken sushi looks like. . . . And I will stop there because I promised my friend Shaira that I would not review this amazing restaurant (Aki at 181 W 4th St between 6th and 7th) that she took me to last night so as to leave her the honor of reviewing it on her wonderful site The Gustatorium.
But I will say this, if you have never been, you need to go! Now! And thank you, thank you, thank you, again Shaira and Rett for taking me there and introducing me to the wonders of banana, mango, coconut, clams, pine nuts, and of course jerk chicken in my sushi. I don't know how Michael Pollan would feel about all this. But there is definitely something to be said for the intuitive nature of my taste buds that were yelling all night, "THIS IS SO RIGHT!"
