Peruse the menu at the newly opened Sushi Lab and you might mistake this Broward County newcomer for just one more take on omakase-style dining.
What it doesn’t tell you, however, is that your miso soup will be served in a beaker, the yellowtail is smoked beneath a lab glass, specialty cuts of fish are torched before your eyes, and uni is topped with caviar and gold flakes.
It’s all part of the vision by New York City real estate developer Hank Freid and his son Brandon, whose modern take on traditional Japanese dining is now serving on the ground floor of the 106-room Residence Inn by Marriott Fort Lauderdale/Pompano Beach.
