| - I can be somewhat of a procrastinator at times, and last week was one of those times. I needed to make sushi for an important demonstration I was having in front of 20 people, but didn't get around to doing it. The DAY OF my demonstration was when I decided to scramble and find some place that could cater the sushi for me. I found Vegas Express Sushi on Yelp and wasn't sure if I should go through them because the pictures posted doesn't show a very "sushi-making type of place". However, their largest platter was at a reasonable price which beat the other places I had called.
I decided to call and spoke with an older woman (I really wish I got her name). She was VERY polite and assured me that she could have my platter ready and made in an hour and a half (I needed it in two). Forty minutes later, she called me back and let me know that it was ready for pick up!
When I got to the store, I was even more surprised because the pictures on Yelp depict the store exactly! It looks like a liquor/convenience store. However, when she realized I was there to pick up my platter, she QUICKLY disappeared into the back of the store. Before my nerves could unsettle themselves, this woman came scuttling back while carrying a GIANT sushi platter with much more than what I had ordered, and a GIANT smile on her face. She rang me up, the whole time describing what was inside, how she made it, and how grateful she was that I had ordered. I could tell that this woman was very proud of what she does there and very grateful for the customers she receives. I took a closer look at the platter with her and it was beautiful!
Oh, and as for quality of the food itself, well...
When I got to my demonstration the ENTIRE sushi platter was gone in less than 10 minutes of me opening it for the meeting.
