aPad-18: Sushi Celebration

A Paragraph a Day: Sushi Celebration

$62.12. The cost of sushi for me and two of the most influential and important people (and women) in my life. Good eats.

A FRIED aroma filled the restaurant, and my nostrils, the moment we walked inside. Before hand, we grabbed a menu and circled every dish we wanted to eat then stood in line, prepared for action. The cashier was a young Asian girl wearing clean pressed clothes and a cheery smile. She recited each of the twelve or so dishes we ordered back to us with just one minor flub--she thought we ordered salad instead of miso soup! After correcting herself, she accepted our money and gave us our receipt.

THE WAIT for our food didn't last long, about eight to ten minutes or the length of the alternate version of the Gangnam Style music video (which this sushi joint had playing on their 32 inch flat screen which hung above a soda machine).

AFTERWARDS, we took our treasure trove of food back home and watched Dark Shadows (featuring Mr. Depp) to end an enjoyable Friday night meant to celebrate the joys of years of hard work and dedication among us. I can honestly say tonight was a wondrous night indeed.
