Nancy,

What was the name of it (if you don't mind my asking)? It sounds similar to
one we have here called O'Nami. They have it seperated into: salad, sushi
and sashimi, hot foods (terryaki, yakisoba, pork ribs, lobster, some type of
fish, etc), and there is a seperate dessert bar too.
The food is pretty good, and I don't know where they find such good
watermelon in March. The tempura is one of the best things there, IMHO.
Shrimp and various vegetables...the green beans are especially wonderful. My
husband and his brother enjoy the sushi and the kids love the terryaki and
the yakisoba, as well as the miso soup. The dessert bar starts with green
tea and mango ice cream, then fresh watermelon, strawberries and pineapple,
and then assorted pastries.

Anway, I was just wondering because it sounded so similar! ;-)
