Rruga 2 Dhjetori · Spile, Himarë
Sushi on a roof
above Himarë.
Sushi by the sea. Views at sunset.

The deck
The deck is the top of the building. It runs the length of it in open timber, with a glass balustrade around the edge and the roofs of Spile immediately below it. Timber pergolas stand over part of the run, lit along their undersides once the light goes; the rest is open to the sky. Olive trees and young palms are set into planters between the tables.
The bar sits at one end under the wordmark, the tables in three long runs in front of it. Hanging chairs are tucked into the corners, and the blue-slate plaster of the inner wall carries a pair of black pendant lamps.
You reach it from the corner of Rruga 2 Dhjetori, the pedestrian spine of Spile — the same street that carries many of the town's restaurants and, after dark, its bars and rooftops.

From the pass
Raw fish is the centre of it — a salmon tartar, an Ionian tuna carpaccio, a sea bass ceviche and a sashimi combination. Around that sit the rolls: the casual ones you already know, and eight of UMI's own, from the Dragon and the Rainbow to the Black Pearl Salmon.
Not everything is raw. There are bao buns and spring rolls to start, three bowls of noodles, salmon teriyaki, crispy duck and yakisoba among the mains, and a matcha panna cotta to finish. Vegetarians have their own run through the card: edamame, bao veggie, the wakame salad, veggie noodles and the vegetable maki.
For a table of several, the card carries chef's combinations of twenty pieces or forty, so nobody has to choose.
Finding UMI
Rruga 2 Dhjetori, in Spile — the white corner building with two black signs at first-floor height. The deck is the level above them. The near edge of Spile Beach is about thirty metres away in a straight line and the water about fifty, so the walk up takes less time than drying off.
