Sushi

Yes, this weekend was a little ridiculous in terms of eating. I think we're going to be vegetarian for the rest of the week. When we did our usual shopping Sunday afternoon, neither of us was tempted to buy anything except green vegetables and fruit. $24 for groceries! Usually we buy enough meat and fish to push us closer to $70. Anyway, a trip out to our "secret" sushi restaurant this weekend. J still won't let me say where it is, but if you really want to know, e-mail me.

Sashimi plate for two. We were planning to eat this and a bowl of rice each, but temptation was too strong. The baby squid in the bottom left corner were new for me. They were pretty tasty, covered in a little honey mustard .

Toro (tuna belly) was especially good this weekend, as was un-photographed uni.

The ama ebi (sweet shrimp) was alive and kicking so we had a couple, along with their deep fried heads.

Cod milt was VERY new for me. Let's just say it's an R-rated food, and if you really want to know what it is you'll have to Google it.
