| - My Musashi experience was quite by accident, but definitely a pleasant surprise.
6:00 pm rolled around and my fiance and I got ready to meet his friends for a birthday dinner at Marrakech, the Moroccan restaurant beside Musashi. They got hung up at Bodies the Exhibit and finally around 8:30, we met up outside Marrakech. It was closed. For super bowl Sunday. What?
Anyway, we were all starving and next door was Musashi. Inviting, but above all open, we decided to give it a try. The restaurant was empty aside from one gentleman at the bar, and the four of us were seated at a comfy round booth. All of us decided on sushi. My guy and I had the ugly redhead, da bomb, j in my mouth, and something else that I don't remember. I also got a seaweed salad. Birthday boy had two mai tais and said they were very good. He and his fiance also had the sexy redhead roll, and some others.
Our server, Alex, was funny, fun, and did a great job of staggering our rolls with the chefs so that we had an endless flow of sushi for a good hour and a half. When we ordered j in my mouth, he told us his name was Jay, and I'm totally gullible...so when I called for Jay we all got a good laugh when he told us his real name. With our sushi, he also brought us some of their special house sauces they've come up with. Most of their sauces are for the teppan bar, he said, but they are expanding into sushi condiments.
Oh yeah, and the sushi was GREAT! My favorite by far was Da Bomb....with a nice thick slice of fresh jalepeno and lots of spicy tuna in every piece, you can't go wrong. Everything looked very fresh, was beautifully presented, and tasted great. Their prices are great for all the specialty rolls they offer, and I can't wait to go back again to try their hot entrees out.
Course, I'll probably end up gorging myself on sushi again....
