This stuff is a little expensive. I mean 7 slices for $ 25-30, but it is well worth it! It is the kind of sashimi that is so smooth and so succulent that I cannot get enough of this stuff. I usually have … more
My friend Liz has been talking up this little West Seattle joint for a while now; it's a favorite for her and her husband. The bar that separates Mashiko from any regular … more

Taiko is right in the middle of the trendy El Segundo location that includes the new ArcLight theaters, PF Chang's, and McCormick and Schmick's. So we might not expect to find high quality, … more
If you drive by Katsu on Rosecrans and Highland, you probably won't even notice it is there. They do not have any signage on the building! There is a red awning and a door with an "A" … more

Tiny, hole in the wall sushi joint that is ALWAYS packed. Sushi rolls are really good, the fish is always fresh and if you can survive the wait, it's pretty great 'strip mall sushi'. Don't expect an elegant … more

KATSU SUSHI IS RAW-SOME! . The other review was dead-on - look around at how many people that really know sushi (aka Japanese) are there. Sometimes lots of JAL flight attendants. Food is … more

I love Nori, especially those coated with Wasabi. Nori makes great snacks as well as sushi. Japanese and Koreans love Nori so much so it has become part of the staple food. Nori can be bought at any Japanese … more
From the cover of this book, this looks like it will be your normal, fluffy, Chick-lit YA story. Well as the old saying goes, don't judge a book by it's cover. The cover may be light but the story is … more
