| - I don't know anything about sushi. That's just a fact. So if you're a sushi enthusiast with pictures of spicy tuna rolls adorning the walls of your home or a special pair of "sushi chopsticks" that you polish on the weekends, you might have a bone to pick with me.
I was invited out for sushi a few nights ago. My response was a knee jerk, "Ah, I'm not really a sushi guy, but I'm down to try." See, I was basing that statement on one bad experience I had with sushi where avocado goop squirted all over my mouth and made me want to barf. But let's move on, because Kinjo did none of those things.
We were seated promptly and soon green tea arrived. In the meantime I enjoyed a chorus of Japanese guys singing happy birthday for what felt like roughly 5 minutes in all sorts of different keys. It wasn't annoying though, it was endearing, like I imagine your kid making you breakfast in bed would be if the breakfast was actually only plastic fruits from a toy set. That sort of feeling.
... I don't have kids. So I can't say that from experience. Anyways..
We ordered what can likely be called the "white man's sushi" mix - Volcano Rolls, Yam rolls, Philedelphia rolls (I think?) and some other incredibly non-threatening sushi types. We also got yam tempura and asparagus.
A little while later a nice boy in a red suit came around to ask if we wanted Pocky sticks for dessert. Well, of course we did, except he made the lovely woman I was having sushi with work really hard to get them after she asked if we could have two boxes. See, that's sort of a faux pas, though not totally out of the question. So in response to her boldness, he gave her the bricks and made her -GASP- kiss me on the cheek - before handing over the goods. Well hats off to you, pocky stick boy. Thanks to you I later got compliments on my smooth skin.
Back to the food.
It was delicious, and I'm "not a sushi guy". It wasn't too fishy. The volcano rolls were a major highlight because I'm a big fan of a little spice. The yam tempura was delicious too, and the yam rolls were great.
Service was excellent despite being incredibly busy. It was a fun experience that even someone who "isn't a sushi guy" can really enjoy!
We capped off the night by eating our strawberry and chocolate pocky sticks at the SAME TIME to simulate chocolate raspberries. My, aren't we creative?
Answer: YES.
