How’s it going?

Today the weather was beautiful, and Mariko prepared some yummy chicken satay for grilling in the backyard. It’s starting to feel like summer here! ☀️

こんばんは。How’s it going?

Today Bay and I went to a new restaurant here in Austin, Kula Sushi. This is a conveyor belt-type sushi restaurant, where plates of sushi and other goodies travel by your table on a small track, and you just pick the sushi that looks good to you. The price is calculated by counting the number of plates you used. What’s cool is that you slip the plates into a slot by the table, and it is automatically counted.

Besides the regular conveyor belt, there is a second belt which delivers items that you can order from each table’s iPad. It’s really fun, and the custom orders speed to your table pretty quickly. See the video below to watch our mackerel sushi arriving.

I’d have to say Kula Sushi is pretty good, but it can’t match the sushi from a nice Japanese restaurant with more experienced chefs. Still, it’s fun, convenient, and a good value. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait since it’s relatively new and popular.

I hope you had a nice Saturday!

こんばんは。Well, to wind down the weekend, a cold beer hits the spot, doesn’t it? And to accompany the icy Asahi, we had a bunch of delicious sushi! 🍣 Or should that be the other way around? I guess it depends on your mood. 😆
