Sushi Group Date

Lisa, Me, Maya, Jamin, Ronnie (White shirt), Cori-Taking Pics

Cori-She Was Taking Pics



My team at work consists of some great food conasours. One person in particular is Lisa. She knows the best places to eat (and what to get there) anywhere here in the Valley and down in SLC. 

She normally puts together these Lunch Dates-she gathers as many people as she can and gets them to expand their taste bud horizians, she's done Korean Barbaque, Ka'min (a Tahi place), Elements, today details one such experiance-Happy Sushi. 

We had everyone on our team here, even Cori who is on Materinity, and Stacy (who was in our thoughts so I had a peice of sushi just for you Stacy-it was a sacrifice I know ;D ).

Stacy-We Missed You! 

We all had Miso soup, which is really good, and even has bits of tofu and little bits of seaweed or leeks-I forget. You just stir then drink it.

We got Edemame-Soybeans.I think Edemame translates to Super Yummy!! Heidi Anne on the other hand calls them "Green Corn". I think they look more like peas-or lima beans when they are out of the pod-but to her it's "Green Corn". Hey, she eats them and they're healthy. But Happy Sushi makes them TONS better. 

 Edemame and Miso-So Good!

Ronnie even tried the Ramen Noodle soup-which was appearently super spicey. It looked really good-minus the fact that it might be spicey. (To me pepper can be to spicey at times-so don't take my word for it on the spicey factor).
 
Lisa came up with the idea that everyone order their favorite sushi-if they've had it before. Then we would all try 1 of everyones favorite sushi. Think of it like a sample of everyone one else's favorite sushi. Normally with sushi you stick with what you know (you don't want to get 8-10 peices of something you might not like). But this way-you just sample 1 or 2 peices and lots of us found a new favorite.

Sushi Surprise..It's So Pretty

I love to just watch them make the sushi it's like watching an artist in the works, I love the presentation they put into the food-it's truely an artform I swear!

Then before we left, the owner suprised Lisa with Mushi-It's pink heaven-that comes in many other flavors.
I am sooo going to have hunt it down and find more of it. You must try this, it's like an ice cream / truffle mix. Ohhhhh sooo good!

I just wish we could of had some fun, honestly, always soooo up tight ^_^ ; It was fun to just get out during a super busy day, to be with other grown ups, and Double Bonus-1 hour with no work talk. Now that alone was well worth it.

So if you ever need a good resturant suggestion or want to explore the local spots-ask Lisa-she knows where to go.
