Culinary Tidbits . . . N/Naka, Omakase, West Los Angeles
After the head sushi chef and owner Niki Nakayama sold her sushi bar Azami, (near Melrose and LaBrea) to Koreans, they incidentally, have ruined the place with dreadful, sweet tasting sushi, to cover up the poor quality of the fish, and are now closed.
She then was found working at her sister’s seafood store, Inaka Seafood Gourmet in Arcadia, and now she has finally opened N/Naka in West Los Angeles, a nine table restaurant specializing in seasonal Omakase.  Her parents are in the fishing business, which guarantees fresh fish. 3455 South Overland Avenue, between Palms Boulevard and Lawler Street, Culver City, 310-836-6252,  n-naka.com, Tuesday to Saturday, 6-9pm.
