Sushi Lost in Translation

We were quite tired yesterday as we drove home from campus, and I suggested we save ourselves some time and order sushi to go at the new sushi place on Garnet on our way home. I thought that was a brilliant idea, they still had their Grand-Opening offer on and the food we had there last time was really good.

Bad idea! The place was packed. Which would have been okay, but the staff is visibly very inexperienced, so they let us make orders, but then just ran off and we wouldn't see them again for the next 40 minutes. Nor would the people that were standing in line at the entrance. I noticed that the waiters would even avoid making eye contact with the people that were waiting, instead of simply walking up to them and explaining that there would be a long wait for a table. As we waited and watched this felt more and more comic. The poor Japanese! They really don't like to say no to people ...

We finally got our food, after sixty minutes of waiting. I thought it would be fitting to rent Lost in Translation to go with our sushi TV dinner, so we did. We cooked up our own Miso soup, then had a movie dinner, like I said. The food was awesome, though. Darn, I like those rolls ...
