One Meal: Kaifu and Yoshi, not Fuji’s for long

So, there I was, delving through my baked sushi (see post above), when the sushi man caught me snapping a photo of the dish for this blog. He held a rather large knife. “You from newspaper?” he says. Caught red-handed (and I wasn’t even using a flash). “Are you Fuji?”? I asked. No! Fuji, he said, was gone to some retail business on the West Side. He was named Yoshi and he has been running Fuji’s Japanese Cuisine and Sushi Bar for a year now. That’s what everyone knows the place by so he was leery of changing the name too soon. But in two or three months, look for the new name: ‘Kaifu.’ It means somethig like ‘beach house,’ in Japanese, said Yoshi.
