oh, Tsurumen is def. better than Menya Jiro! the chashu especially is a cut above at Tsurumen. But Menya Jiro is pretty respectable in general.
And I guess that’s fair about the price–but me, when I go to Cafe Sushi I can never resist getting their seaweed salad and ordering a bunch of maki and it inevitably costs me north of 30 bucks.
