Sushi Evolution

Ryan introduced me to sushi when we first started dating. Our favorite place to get sushi was Sumo's. Back in the day before they moved to 13th and Greenwich this place was like Cheers for us. We know the owners, so everytime we came in we were greeted by name and they would come over and chat with us.

So when Ryan and I moved from the east side of town to the west side of town we were pushed farther away from our favorite sushi restaurant. We would occasionally go to Sumos, but it was always planned and never a spur of the moment decision. It was our delightful surprise later to discover Tokyo Steakhouse had expanded to include a brand new sushi bar which helped with our sushi cravings. The food was just as good as Sumo's but quite a bit cheaper.

Well, change is never easy. Imagine our surprised when we tried to go eat sushi on Monday and the sushi bar was closed. We tried again Tuesday night and they were back in business but with one very surprising change. According to the hostess, the assistant manager, the head sushi chef, along with his other sushi workers all walked off the job over the weekend! At least the new replacements made good sushi.
