Before opening the thread I thought it was awful harsh of you to pass this kind of judgment before they even opened!
For the record  NEBUGEATER does not equal BUGEATER    !!!!!!!

Expletive Sushi is definitely a name that needs to happen.

And if Expletive Sushi doesn't happen, I would go to Expletive Tacos in a heartbeat...

Good find!

“Right now, I'm working on opening up my own sushi restaurant in Omaha called Yoshitomo, which will have a special room in the back for my omakase dinners, so I will be able to cater to those who just want the basic rolls and those who want the chef’s table experience,” Chef David Utterback explains.

One of America’s best sushi restaurants is in Omaha. Yes, Omaha.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/food/202 ... yoshitomo/
The Washington Post wrote:OMAHA — The contradiction is not lost on David Utterback.

The chef and owner behind three restaurants here has gone off on a tangent about sushi in America. Many counters in the United States, Utterback suggests, are content to mimic Tokyo-style sushi, as if the cuisine were a fixed object handed down from the masters, never to be touched. Utterback delivers his monologue near the finale of a 2o-course dinner at Ota, his high-end omakase counter that serves eight customers a night, max. For one final course, the chef hands diners what he jokingly calls “prairie tuna.” It’s a slice of wagyu strip loin, lightly torched, topped with sea urchin butter and golden osetra caviar.

“To me this bite perfectly symbolizes what sushi is supposed to be in America. Sushi is a regional food. It’s supposed to change — in construction, in taste, flavor, terroir and all the ingredients,” Utterback explains, his hair pulled back in a chonmage, the traditional Japanese topknot.

A great review! I always proudly brag about Omaha’s sushi scene to people, and this review clearly shows why.
