Lunch: $15-$20
Dinner: $20-$30


Spicy hasn't been with us, so he wouldn't know.

When we went to Aloha, it was $30/person. Kirala was $44. We order a LOT and try a lot of different things and split the whole tab. That cost included drinks, tax, tip, everything.

OK, now I see that it can get pricey if you go alot. Hey, the sushi I buy at Trader Joes has packets of soy sauce and wasabi, which is fine, but it also comes with a packet of ginger. Why?? What's that for?? wacko.gif
I have opinions, you have opinions. We'll just call it even...is that OK ??

Everywhere I've been includes that. I don't like it, but a lot of people do. They just eat it.

It's for eating. It cleanses the palette, and allieviates motion sickness.

My kids like to put little pieces of it on top of their sushi, but I usually munch on it plain.

Doh! So, Jesse owes someone four bucks! That was the day before Jocelyn was born, so he just left 40.00 and left before the check came. Who do we owe?

So, is the next one really the 9th of January? Any updates on this?
THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING MY GIRL.
We could not be doing this without you.
Much love and gratitude.

Don't worry about it, Jolene! Consider that our baby gift to you. :D

Will Wasabi be open yet? There's also Maguro or whatever below Sutter St, Sushi Unlimited, and Suishin Sushi.

not sure if wasabi will be open yet (I'm really looking forward to going there) - last time I went by there it looked like it was getting close but who knows...

I think the one by sutter street closed - not sure...

I'll do some checking on all these places to see what I can find
