Omakase Sushi|Bar Encino

I will go ahead and start by saying the only way to eat great sushi is Omakase. If you are unfamiliar with what Omakase is it’s mean’s literally “I’ll leave it up to you” which is the chef’s choice. I recently went to Sushi|Bar in Encino which is an omakase restaurant. It’s the best sushi I have had in a long time. If you watch my Instagram, you know I have traveled to Tokyo to do tastings of Michilin starred sushi restaurants. I typically only order omakase when I do eat sushi. Sushi|Bar is in my top 3 in LA. The fish is incredibly fresh and they also add unique flavor profiles that really balance out with each piece of fish.

There is nothing more romantic than the thought of snow capped mountains and sitting next to a fireplace with someone you love. You can be taken to the to the mountain tops for Gstaad with Monte Suisse 67. This scent has an interesting history. It was a bespoke fragrance created in the 1960’s for a one of Krigler’s Swiss clients who loved to spend his time between Gstadd and St. Moritz. It was later archived and now in 2021 it has been brought back for all of us to enjoy. This is a unisex fragrance. When fragrances were created they were never made for just men or women, they were always created for anyone to wear. I love that Krigler still stays true to that.
