I said I would be better, but man have I been busy.

So, I said I would be better about posting, but I will admit I am slacking. I really wish I would have thought about the camera on my cell phone prior to purchasing it, but now that I am stuck with it for at least another 5 months, I am going to have to just tell you about the great food I have been eating.

I started my own version of weight watchers a week ago. I figured, if I am working out with a trainer (
Joel and Cris at Fitnext in OTR are WONDERFUL) I might as well do it right. Food isn't as hard as I thought it would be, but it takes planning. I survived the first week and have a lot to learn, but I am excited about the possibilities in the future.

One thing I was craving last week was sushi. I had an errand to run on Thursday, so I talked Mark into having sushi at Dancing Wasabi. If you haven't been to Dancing Wasabi... what are you waiting for. Located in Mt Lookout Square, its a small restaurant that never lacks tons of guests and great sushi. I have been going to this location since it was Sushi Ray. I was a little bummed when they left and Dancing Wasabi took over, but I was optimistic. We typically had been visiting Sake Bomb, but needed a new restaurant to visit as we were tired of the same old sushi.

My girlfriends and I have been frequenting Dancing Wasabi for a while, but I have only taken Mark here twice. Without fail, the sushi is spot on. We waited quite a bit of time for a table, however, with Wednesday and Thursday nights being half priced sushi, what do you expect. The space is maximized with plenty of small tables and room at the bar, but with deals like these you should expect to wait, unless you arrive early enough to miss the rush. We sat at the bar and were pretty quick with our order.

After being seated, we ordered two house salads (they make their own ginger dressing and its wonderful) and prepared our sushi order. I had the usual, two pieces of tuna, two super white tuna, split two rolls with Mark. Mark had the egg, the Flying Fish Roe, and our rolls of choice were the Red Double roll and the crunch roll. I must admit, the red double roll is hard to not like. I will say there is something for everyone here, and when you are eating the half price sushi, why not try a few new items. Dancing Wasabi uses beautiful ingredients, has great sushi chefs and makes for a great time.

Next time your in Mt Lookout, stop in for a visit. Their half price sushi also starts at 10pm on Friday and Saturday nights as well, and they are open until 2am on the weekends to supply the wonderful bar crowd with great sushi.
