  • I really wanted to love this place. I had read lots of great comments about this place so I suggested it for my weekly lunch date with my guy. He only has an hour for lunch so this seemed perfect. He ordered the beef bowl and I ordered the shrimp and veggie bowl. I love brown rice but it was not an option that day, perhaps they were out. His bowl was, in his words was good but not great. The amount of meat vs rice was way out of proportion, he pitched a good amount of rice when he was done. Now onto my shrimp and veggie bowl, poor poor shrimp and veggie bowl. At first glance it looked really good. The tail on shrimp was the perfect pink color you expect from good shrimp and even had a bit of char on the edges. I couldn't wait to dig in...then my nose was filled with that sulfur smell cabbage gives off. Not just a wee whiff, but an overwhelming cabbage odor (and for the record I'm an Irish girl, I'd eat cabbage on an old boot but I've never been smacked in the face with this much cabbage-yness before) so my superhero boyfriend came to my rescue and started a cabbage-ectomy. When he was done my bowl was only 1/3 full...4 shrimp (we'll get to them next) and two small pieces of broccoli and one and a half coins of carrot. My bowl was literally 2/3 cabbage! The picture on the menu was not what was handed to me. It should have been called a cabbage bowl. There was a saving grace...the shrimp...or so I thought. I picked one up and what looked like a plump perfectly juicy shrimp was those paper thin butterflies shrimp you get on shrimp sushi at an asian buffet. I actually held it up to the light and I could see through it. They tasted of nothing, the tails were floppy. If you are going to charge a couple dollars more than a beef dish (with a good bit of beef in the dish) you better give me more than 4 see through shrimp and a metric ton of cabbage. The two stars are one each for not screwing up the rice and for really good teriyaki sauce that wasn't super thick and cloyingly sweet. If I could get a jar of that stuff I'd pay for it then take it home and make some amazing teriyaki shrimp...those giant suckers (jumbo shrimp is probably my favorite oxymoron next to military intelligence, but I digress). In this story I was the poor sucker who paid 8 ish bucks for a bowl o' rice and cabbage. I totally hear you laughing at me!
