Hey, the guys who tried it said it was great! I'm not a sushi/sashimi kinda
gal myself.

Next time you're at that Residence Inn (could it have been you I shared a
taxi with a couple of years ago when I had to share a taxi and they dropped
someone off at the Residence Inn?) go up the street to the Carrefour Center.

Go around behind the "mall"... yes, you'll have to force yourself to go past
Penzey's Go behind the mall until you get to a restaurant called Mr.
B's. There you will find the biggest, thickest tenderest pork chop
smothered in brown gravy you ever saw. Lovely steamed or casseroled
vegetable sides.

(laughing) I used to work at O'Charley's. Not that one! The one I worked
at closed; the manager was convicted of stealing from the company. I tried
to warn the VP over the region since I used to do their books and the newly
promoted manager changed the computer password and wouldn't give it to me.
Turned out he added his relatives to the payroll. Oh well. I tried to warn
them.
