Where to Eat in Canada

Megan MacDonald trained with a master sushi chef in the Cayman Islands and worked with him for two years before returning to open her own restaurant in Saskatoon. Sushiro has proved to be an unexpected delight. It’s in the City Park district, a short walk from the river. Inside there are twelve seats; in fine weather you can take your sushi outside and eat it on the riverbank. Megan has an artist’s eye for line and colour and she serves nothing but the best fish that money can buy in Vancouver or Calgary. It’s all flash frozen by the suppliers, which means that it’s as fresh as you can get this far inland. Six pieces of sushi with miso can be had for 14.50, eight pieces of maki for 5.00. There’s also sashimi, salads and tempura, all of them amazingly beautiful. The restaurant recently got a licence, which means that there’s more to drink than green tea.
