Hi Snobs! The majority of us often look down on your high-minded, highfalutin, hoity-toity manner. You’re rude to waiters, passive aggressive toward children, and your eyebrows are always a liiiiittle too perfect. You’re the underappreciated. One thing you’ve had right all along, there’s an art to this sushi thing and some just don’t get it.

“In the last ten years, sushi has become as plentiful on the Chicago scene as hot dogs. To be clear, this is a bad thing. There was once a time your average eater didn’t know the difference between maki or sashimi and food snobs preferred it this way. Culinary ignorance kept the raw seafood pool shallow enough to easily weed out the not-so-serious from the meticulously fresh and authentic sushi houses. Today, the market suffers from fishy inflation and it’s growing increasingly difficult to tell the faking flounders from the master sharks.” – Chicago’s Three Best Sushi Restaurants by Neighborhood, by Kari Herrera.

So, how does one spot a great sushi restaurant? What should we all be looking for? How much should we be willing to fork over after chopsticking up?
