Sushi

One of Barona Resort & Casino's newest eateries is Seafood Plaza.  It is across from the food court and down the escalators.  This area has been remodeled.  It used to be a bingo hall.  There are two other restaurants: Italian Cucina and the soon-to-be new Barona Oaks Steakhouse.  I like this area because it was definitely more quiet than the rest of the casino.

After we ordered, one of the servers brought out a bowl of complimentary Edamame for us to munch on while we were waiting for our meal.

As a special Comic Con treat, I went with my sister and a friend to Nobu in downtown San Diego for dinner.  It is definitely a hot spot.  It was packed with Con go-ers and party people.  Don't worry, most of the geeks are gone by now =)

Finally!  I'm done reposting all my old reviews from the original Oh-So Yummy site.  So here's a new one...

While I was at Michael's (the craft store), I noticed a sign for Sushi Man, so I decided to try them out.  They're in the same shopping area as Pacific Theaters and they also have locations in Hawaii and two more in San Diego: 6348 College Grove Way #104 (next to Sam's Club) and 872 Eastlake Parkway #412 (at the Village Walk).

I’ve been having the biggest sushi craving for a while, so I asked my friend Phil if he would like to accompany me and at the same time recommend a place where we can get good sushi. He decided to take us to Sushi Town and told me their sushi was pretty good and at a decent price range.

This was my first trip to Yoshi Sushi although Dennis had been telling me about it for awhile. Apparently, they have a great all you can eat sushi deal. They make the sushi fresh with that deal so it’s much better than going to a sushi buffet. It’s good for sharing but since it was just Dennis and myself (we were later joined by Lynn), we decided to skip the all you can eat deal and just order something off their dinner menu.

(Crunchy Roll) ~$5.00

Oshi is a small korean restaurant off the corner of College Ave and Montezuma. Its pretty much the only decent asian food near SDSU and within walking distance. My friend goes there during lunch time to scope out the korean and japanese girls. I go there for food.

Unagi Bowl ($7.50) tax included

I took Lynn to this restaurant a couple of weeks ago for her birthday. Her friend had recommended this place and so we decided to check it out for ourselves.

The chicken curry bowl was shockingly huge! It could easily feed two people. Unfortunately, it wasn’t that good… The chicken and the sauce were okay, but I didn’t like the rice. It was way too moist for my taste and I would have preferred it if they had served the curry sauce and the rice seperately. That way, the rice wouldn’t have been soggy on the top

Oyster Shooter ($6.00). I didn’t try this and so I can’t comment on it. But from what I’ve heard, it gives you the extra oomph you might need at night. =)

Chef Choice Sashimi ($28.00). More than thirty pieces of daily fresh fish. I don’t usually eat sashimi but this was pretty good. My favorite was the yellowtail and tuna pieces.

Salmon Skin Handrolls ($5.00). These were scrumptious. Salmon skin is always a good choice.
