We needed a French food break, and at the first meal I started looking for Asian food. Asian food…read moreis what we seek for a food break because the flavors are different. I'm always intrigued by boat/belt sushi presentations, so we stopped here. Their menu was soup, salad, and a certain number of belt choices. The belt presentation was little and various Maki, sushi, sashimi, salads, little dough-wrapped shu-meis, and brochettes (cooked brochettes), obviously the inexpensive fish like tuna, salmon and some white fish I thought mackerel. I remember, many years ago, talking to the owner of a Vietnamese restaurant about the flavor differences between his shop and those in the USA as we eat Vietnamese food frequently chez moi. He said that to be successful one has to incorporate flavors to which people are accustomed. I thought Ito's brochettes of salmon gooied up with cheese taking it a little far. I also thought that, at once filling the belt and keeping it full as things were taken off (with few people there) would serve later comers with less fresh food, indeed they did take the brochettes off occasionally and reheat them. Nevertheless, what we had was average sushi/sashimi, not bad food. They had a place next door (undoubtedly with the same staff) for takeout, but with a few tables, where you can order just what you want. I think that would have been a better choice for us.
