Oishii Sushi

by Rich S » Fri Aug 12, 2011 12:42 pm

The old Captain Pepperjacks building (2810 Taylorsville Road, across from Bowman Field) has signs up saying that Oishii Sushi, Tempura and Teriyaki is coming soon. This is apparently the Oishii that's now at 2245 Bardstown Road.

I wonder if they are moving or opening a second location? I would guess the latter, but what do I know? Thanks for the report!

This is great news; Oishii is about to go from walking distance to stumbling distance. 8)

I drove by today and noticed that Oishii's Taylorsville Road restaurant is open now. According to the website, it's only open for dinner -- it doesn't say if those are the permanent hours. The original location on Bardstown Road is open for both lunch and dinner. Both are closed Sundays.

I'm always leery of a sushi place that's open on Sunday's, because who delivers fresh fish on Sunday? Unless they deliver fish on Sundays now, in which case I should eat more sushi.

I used to be the same way but have had some incredible sushi on Sundays. If they got a delivery on Friday or Saturday, it should still be "fresh". In Japan, even a freshly killed and butchered fish will be left in the refrigerator to mature for a few days to develop umami flavor. However, it is killed in a method that delays the onset of rigor mortis, ikejime.

Still, I would recommend that you go to a place that you trust because this ain't Japan. :lol:
