Yay! Finally! I have found my favourite sushi spot in Edinburgh. And in particular my new favourite lunchtime eating-out option: the sashimi salad.\n\nI have been on a mission to find good sushi in Edinburgh. It's not that the others I have tried have been bad per se, they've just been 'A-Ok' as Yelp ratings put it, and sometimes all a little samey. Same menu, same options. Yes, sushi is a repetitive format and when done ok it's perfectly acceptable.\n\nNo.1 Sushi Bar still had all the regular offerings but a few wee different things that made it stand out. As mentioned, the sashimi salad in the starters section. I was um-ing and ah-ing over all the main sashimi options (5 pieces each) and was going to go for tuna, but then was thinking \"oh but I want salmon\" then flicking to the sushi platters - but I didn't want too much rice.\n\nAnd lo, on the starters menu there was the sashimi salad. Sushi servings are small and I was dubious that a starter sushi portion would be tiny. But (see uploaded photo) it was plentiful. 3 prawns, tuna, salmon, roe, crab, avocado, an oil free wasabi-flavoured dressing, and a lot of salad leaves. It was delicious and filling and just...yum.\n\nOther wee diffferences: they had eel california rolls which pleased me and the boy greatly as we both wanted eel but didn't want the eel main and the eel nigiri was a little pricey (\u00a34 for 2 pieces). In fact, that's the only down-side. It is quite expensive, as the other reviewers have mentioned. Well, the nigiri was quite pricey. But the salad I had felt like good value and I think any of the sushi rolls (6 pieces) would probably be more filling too. Just choose wisely.\n\nIt's fresh, the menu is varied, I've only been once and I already have a favourite I'll order time and time again. I'll be sashay-ing over here every time I want to get my sushi on for sure.
