aiko sushi and karate kid

Tweet

i saw a sushi station at the mall called aiko sushi, but they have a sign that you have to order two days in advance, and then pick up your order. i might buy a platter for our annual new year's day get-together for a change of menu. my choices so far are: california maki with cucumber (crab and avocado), tamago roll (egg), kani roll (crab), tuna roll and salmon roll. i'd have to go there to place an order tomorrow, dec. 30th, to be able to pick it up for the family lunch on jan. 1st. i also ate at karate kid for the first time. i had chicken teriyaki with rice and mixed veggies and kido punch tea. the veggies consist of bean sprouts, cabbage, carrots, and bell pepper, which i liked. next time i plant to try sweet and sour fish, gyoza (steamed wanton dumpling), and takoyaki (bits of octopus, tempura, etc mixed with batter then fried into a ball) have you tried any new food, snack, dessert or drink this holiday season? (pop memories: i remember listening to Turning Japanese by UK band The Vapors in 1980, Big in Japan by German band Alphaville in 1984, and watching the movie The Karate Kid, starring Ralph Macchio (as Daniel LaRusso) and Pat Morita (as Mr. Miyagi), also in 1984.
