Blue Fin Sushi Buffet




I love this buffet, where quality and quantity merge nicely.  My cousin-in-law, who regularly goes to sushi buffets in LA, declared the sushi rolls and sashimi here to be the best of the bunch.  I loved the arugula salad and jelly fish that I could get, along with seared salmon rolls, salmon sashimi, as well as a respectable selection of chinese stir fries.  There was also chicken teriyaki, katsu, tempura, along with mini korean pancakes and a veggie soon-do-boo like soup.

Just be careful with the drinks - the cups are huge and the servers fill it up diligently, so don't get too filled up with the liquids.




Summer Salads


Salmon Nicoise Salad - Nordstrom Cafe
Greek Salad - Panera Bread

I love salad in the summer time.  It's so refreshing that it's no wonder that it's exactly what we crave to combat the summer heat.  I've had my share of great salads this summer and posted my favorite ones.

Solo Sushi




My mother-in-law relieves me once a week and practically kicks me out of the house for the day.  It is such a nice break.  I get to eat my meal in at my pace and actually taste my food.  I love being a mommy, but especially love it when Jayden is being well taken care of while I get a break!
