| - After a super intense workout, I felt like I really needed to treat myself and go out (not the actual way you should be thinking ;)). Michelle suggested sushi and I was all in for gainZZ. We were in Ramsay and thinking of a place when Michelle said that Fuji Yama was on 17th avenue and was good and decent priced. It was about 7:30 when we headed over on a Tuesday. Parking is free after 6PM on the streets. I've never been to Fuji Yama before so I parked out front wondering where this place was. I look down and into a window and noticed that Fuji Yama is literally in the basement of a complex - I probably looked quite lost but I followed the signs where it guided me to the back to enter where there is additional parking.
You walk down a set of stairs, then to a little hallway where there is a sensor and you are (creepily) greeted by an automated welcome in Japanese. We were seated at a four person top across from the sushi bar and it wasn't busy at all and ordered some tea first. Fuji Yama is a modern sushi place with simple décor, comfy chairs and glass table tops. The menu has an extensive selection of appetizers, entrees, sashimi, sushi rolls, noodles, rice bowls, salads and Japanese curry. I went with a house green salad, some California rolls, Philadelphia rolls and 3 pieces of salmon sashimi. Michelle went with an avocado sashimi salad, gyoza, and Japanese curry with chicken. Michelle's favorite is the avocado sashimi salad appetizer - pieces avocado, some mixed spring salad with various pieces of sashimi with a miso sauce. I had a taste and it was different than I had expected - sweet because of the miso sauce but good. The gyoza was gyoza, good but nothing special. My plate of sushi and sashimi came out and it looked delish. I enjoyed the Philadelphia rolls, there was a good salmon to Philadelphia cheese ratio, the mango on top was a nice fruity touch and the rolls were nice mouthfuls. The salmon sashimi was great! They were nice large fresh thick pieces, definitely money's worth! Then came Michelle's Japanese curry, wow was this dish ever big! Japanese curry is kind of similar to Indian curry but much more mild. It the best mixed with rice! There were some vegetable and lightly fried chicken strips mixed within. It was a great combo.
Our server was sweet, came by and filled our waters as well as asked us how everything was. It was nice and quiet so I would recommend Fuji Yama during the weekdays after 6. Everything was reasonably priced and portions were good.
