Ebisuya Japanese market

I know this is not directly Davis Sq. related, but it's nearby. Ebisuya Japanese market is having their grand opening today from 6pm to 8pm http://ebisuyamarket.com/. This is in Medford Sq., right off the last stop of the 96 bus. My understanding is that it is owned by former employees from Kotobukiya in Porter Sq, which closed last year (mentioned in this post: http://community.livejournal.com/davis_square/1928524.html).

I have no idea what they carry, though the website lists sushi and fresh seafood. So I'm excited.

Language nerd note: Kotobukiya basically meant "long life store". Ebisuya means "Ebisu store", Ebisu being a god of fishermen and one of the Seven Lucky Gods (that's him in their logo). If they're putting more of an emphasis on their seafood, the name makes a lot of sense.
