Roe, Roe, Roe That Boat!


Food, glorious food. What is it about you that makes humans just go Lady Gaga over you? You're not merely a source of energy, but a reliable way to bring a smile to our overstuffed faces. Today, my posse and I went to Japantown for a much-deserved lunch break. Where else can you find bite-sized morsels of goodness floating around in front of you but in this flourescent lit structure of contrived Japanese-ness called Japantown. I doubt that Japan looks anything like this place, but I'm willing to go along for the ride.


I, of course, am referring to Isobune. They treat you right here. Warm, moist towels to start, all the sushi that your wallet allows you to eat, and - Gasp! They validate parking (they're one of the few establishments in J-Town that do). To those un-initiated, you simply sit down, watch the sushi boats float by and grab the ones you'd like to introduce to your digestive track, and your bill will be calculated by the stacks of plates you've accumulated (they're color coded).


My new favorite is the Uni sushi. Why? Cause it's indescribable and simply tastes delicious. There's also the special, called Happiness Sachi, which is a combo of uni, bbq eel, and crab salad. Yummmeee.


So, there you go. Don't miss out on this culinary experience. Seeing your food float by in front of you is not only fun, but also a testament to the fleeting nature of the culinary experience!
