Sushi Sasabune



H&M dress & belt, Michael Kors shoes, Forever 21 bag & ring




My new $3 cocktail ring from Forever 21






I've heard countless raves about Sasabune, many claiming it to have the "best sushi in Los Angeles". Gabe and I went for the first time on Saturday and we couldn't agree more. This place is for "serious" sushi lovers. They don't have tempura or California rolls, just traditional sushi and sashimi that melts in your mouth. We ordered Omakase (where the chef chooses your meal) and it was incredible. They bring you the crab hand roll last for good reason. It's definitely the most delicious way to end an already amazing meal. If you're in LA and love sushi, this is the place to go.

Oooh I am incredibly jealous. I love, love sushi!!! That place looks fantastic and you certainly dressed the part. I'm so glad you two had a fun little date! I think you guys are the cutest couple ever.

Gabriel said...

Definitely the best sushi around. They even tell you weather or not to add soy sauce to each piece.
Sasabune!

Elle said...

Gorgeous dress! and suishi... I am SO Jealous I've been dying to go out for Suishi for weeks now and we just haven't had time!

Lindsay said...

My husband is a HUGE sushi fan! I'll have to take him here :)

Jules said...

You look fantastic in that dress and the cocktail ring from Forever 21 is too cute. I also really like the nail polish color.

The restaurant sounds great and I’m sure that I would find something I like. I know that my husband would love this place. He is more adventurous than me ;) I would do some of the sashimi, but I can be a little picky with it.

Jamie said...

We love sushi and especially having the chef choose. It's making me hungry thinking about it! I love your outfit- everything about it and especially the shoes (since they've been heavily on my mind lately:). Not that I need to be buying ANY more, but did you get them recently?? In other words, still on the market? Just curious, b/c I just may need them.

this free bird said...

The color of your dress is perfect on you!! And the shoes, the SHOES just so cute. I cannot believe you scored that ring for $3?? What a jackpot. We've not tried this Sasabune you speak of, but sounds like we should. I have had Omakase in LA at a different place and it was di-vine. ps - so happy you left your info for the bangle! yay!

J. said...

THE KORS SHOES!! Love them and have been secretly stalking them at Nordstrom haha. Great look!

PS - I'm a follower now :)

Your outfit is out of this world! I love the shoes, and your Forever 21 cocktail ring. I've tried sushi a few times and I just can't bring myself to like it! But this looks like a fun night out nonetheless, and I hope you had fun! I just love dressing up for the night.

little luxury list said...

H&M? Seriously, you are a savvy shopper my dear! Love the color of that dress!

Ooh and I LOVE food shots! I will definitely try out this place when I'm in LA (and hopefully won't get itchy!) Did you need to make reservations way in advance?

Thanks for stopping by my blog - the Coach event was fun and I love snapping away!

Bren said...

You look adorable Valerie! Love your MK wedges! They remind me of a pair of shoes that Jen Aniston wore recently that I was drooling over. LOL! And, that sushi place looks amazing! I'll need to check it out. ;)

How fun! Can't wait to try that place!! You look gorgeous and every time I see you all decked out for date night, I feel so badly for Erik. I need to put on a pair of heels for him once and a while. Those KORS in particular would do the trick! Amazing!!
