I'm interrupting the Vacation Report again to tell you how happy I'm today. You know how much I've been craving for sashimi but today I've finally found a Japanese restaurant that offers good sashimi at an acceptable price (15 euros) for lunch. Japanese cuisine is extremely expensive in Italy: typically 20 euros for lunch and 35 euros for dinner. Syd had a lunch special which consisted 6 pieces good-sized sashimi and vegetable tempura while I enjoyed a chirashi bowl with 10 pieces of sashimi! When I tasted my first sashimi in over 2 months, I couldn't help but thinking of Jason. No, he's not an ex-boyfriend or a lover. Jason is a great chef/ owner of Sendai, a wonderful Japanese restaurant with delicious fresh sushi and sashimi in Milpitas. Syd and I used to go to Sendai at least once every week. Ohhhhhhh, how I miss him and the food!
Surprisingly the Japanese restaurants have California rolls here as well... I guess it is famous everywhere except in Japan. :p Let me give you the price of a few of the dishes so you can see how expensive it is in Italy. A cheapest sushi roll is 1.50 euros; a miso soup is 3 euros; and a green tea ice cream is 4 euros. Yikes! Get stock up on your sushi and sashimi before you come to Italy!
