Kissho

Here is our little guy, trying out chopsticks for the very first time.  Before Mills was born, we swore that we would train him to love Japanese hibachi and sushi.  We are huge Benihana fans, and compare every other hibachi steakhouse to it.  So far, there have been no other hibachi steakhouses that compare to it.  Shogun, no thank you.  We don't want peas in our rice or our food drowned in soy sauce.

I used to tease Erik, that if we were rich, I would hire a few Japanese hibachi chefs and open up a local restaurant here.  Erik's comment:  "Ha!  Yeah right.  A Japanese and sushi restaurant here?!"  Well, guess what.  We've got one!  I have been stalking the parking lot waiting on it to open. It opened Thursday and we went for lunch.  Talk about first customer guinea pigs!  Tonight went for hibachi.  You can't get any closer to Benihana than that.  Now, the atmosphere is not the same, but who cares when its 5 minutes away, and the food is great!  Kissho, we give you two thumbs up!
