Mike came close to traumatizing our 3-year old the other day. Our son was showing some interest in the salmon roe sushi that was on the plate. Thinking he might actually try eating it, I picked up on of the fish eggs and gave it to him to exam. He got very exciting, jabbering away, and making the sign for fish. When Mike picked up the sushi and popped it in his mouth, our son let out a bloody scream of horror. I realized too late that he thought Daddy had eaten Nemo, the character from his favorite movie. |

BTW, we tried a new place in the Apline/Lehi/AF area that you should check out. It is called Yapono (Yapona?) and it is accross the street to the south of Costco. Pricey, but excellent quality.

I hate you all. Sushi sounds so good right now and it will be another 6 1/2 months before I can eat it.

Has anyone been to Kyoto?
Apparently there are two different ones with the same name. I'm talking about this one: http://wcities.com/en/record/24,40448/67/record.html "top 10 restaurant in Utah" I haven't been there in many years, so it may just be nostalgia. For example, when I was at BYU, I liked Demae. Then after living in Houston for a bit, I went back to Demae and almost threw up. Kyoto specializes in more of your traditional Japanese dishes, has sushi bar. Great tempura, good memories of sukiyaki. |

Demae is Japanese comfort food (domburi, katsudon, curry rice, etc.). Cheap, authentic, home-style dishes, but not gourmet. And their sushi is not very good.

Demae's food didn't change from when they were in a snowcone stand to when they opened as a sit-down restaurant. At the very least, they could cook the rice properly.

Also, about Kyoto, the waitresses are all Japanese and speak Japanese. And the chefs/cooks are all Japanese. That is usually an excellent sign when you are at a Japanese restaurant. Mexican cooks are usually a bad, bad sign. Koreans are a bad sign as well. Whities are bad, bad, bad.
