I used to like Asta restuarant on Middlesex Street (10 mins) from Liverpool Street - always full of Japanese customers. Good value and tasty bento boxes to eat at lunch. More variety and better quality than the Asta takeaway / sandwich shop between Liverpool St and Moorgate.

What can we deduce from this thread as the relentless Google search engine indexer crawls over this site finding the key words best sushi restaurant London and figuring given the hits that EDF gets it?s important and puts it up to the top of search results.


The wisdom of crowds and the good nature of the British when given a challenge to worry out the solution (Bletchley Park anyone ?) meant as soon as SKS threatened to go to the grave his lips sealed then the combo of a knowledgeable community + challenge meant the name would be revealed.


So the name is here - of that I am certain ? now SKS reveal the name and ruin one or keep silent and ruin them all ? the fate of authentic Japanese sushi lies in your hands.

Interesting website, though no mention of things like food, prices or menus :)


Thanks, I'll have the Chinese proverb please (with whose sentiments I fully agree and in fact adhere to :)) )


Let's hope there's not more than one Chinese proverb up as I couldn't be arsed to watch the whole lot .....

Does this mean it's like an open house? What time? Sample food? More info please.

Myself and a mate went in Friday night and walked straight back out again - very noisy. The guy on the door said "its well sound proofed isn't it". True - you open the door and are hit by a wall of sound.


Seemed busy though. Suspect it and Liqourish will share customers, although Liqourish was quieter and we could hear ourselves speak. Adventure Bar may suffer though with a competitor on the same side of the road.


More variety is good though.

A Brazilian bar serving sushi??


Brazil has a long history of catering to their huge Japanese population. Thousands of Japanese emigrants traveled to South America to work coffee plantations in the early 20th century and now they have the largest Japanese population outside of Japan. The integration of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cultures is a big part of Brazilian cuisine today, much like "American-ized" Mexican food and "British-ized" Indian food. There are chains of Brazilian/Japanese restaurants in the US, my favorite being Sushi Samba in New York.


So I'm hoping Boho, if they are a Brazilian place, will take their sushi very, very seriously. Anyone tired it yet? How are the prices?

    • Thank you, Pugwash. That's really useful information. Do you know who was responsible for the locks and keys, or which council department? Could you PM me if you don't want to put someone's personal details on here?  It may save me having to speak to Monica. Thanks.
    • Does anybody know why? Trees aren't cut down for no reason. There must have been something wrong with it (I hope that was the reason). A child was recently killed and another one injured when a tree fell in a park (not in this area). It isn't always obvious from the outside when a tree is diseased or whatever, and I imagine the council would give safety considerations priority when deciding what to do, if there was any doubt at all.
    • It looks like they have cut it down completely now 😭
    • Different people will be  involved within Thames Water. The people dealing with the leaks aren't the people encouraging less water usage. How many people have reported the Barry Road leak? By what channels? What response have they had? When we had a leak in our road which meant we had no water, several people reported it, there was good communication with TW, they explained why they couldn't come out immediately (other urgent jobs elsewhere in the area) , kept  in touch with us and fixed the leak within a reasonable timescale (hours). Someone from TW also contacted me later to make sure my water was back. But does Thames Water know about it? They aren't psychic (I presume). If nobody reports it, I also presume they won't even know the leaks are  there, unless they have some kind of central monitoring system which tells them when there are leaks in the system. To make it clear, I am not defending Thames Water as a company, which I think should never have been privatised.  But there are some things they can't be blamed for (old and disintegrating water pipe system in London) and some they can (possibly, lack of sufficient staff to deal with leaks, maybe due to trying to save money to give their shareholders more. But this is just surmise on my part - I know nothing about Thames Water).
