Thank you @PorkyBelly!! This & Providence are most likely the best meals I’ve ever had in LA.
The food, timing, ambiance, plates/glasses/ceramics, drink selection, and service are unmatched.
Brandon & his team are so friendly, but still manage to maintain a very high degree of professionalism.
It’s what a bartender at Kato was mentioning about Atomix when he recently went. It takes decades of experience to master that, and I think that’s something everyone at Providence does very well and has had the time to master, but Hayato did it equally as well.

Given that @Spicyshlomi posted it, it’s more than likely that he took it…unless we have another @PeonyWarrior @alkiegourmand sitch

One of the fellow diners gratuitously shared some baller sake and champagne with everyone as well 
I wish @beefnoguy was still on the boards to explain exactly what these sakes were, aged junmai daiginjos is my guess

Assuming no one played musical chairs, that faucet depicted in the first photo is behind the right counter (facing chef), which significantly narrows down the likely suspects lolol.

@Bagel and @NYCtoLA are our resident sake expert, maybe they can give some details. all i got is the first one is a jikon tokujo omachi junmai daiginjo and the second is a limited kokuryu junmai daiginjo.
