SUSHI!

We went to Sushi last night for dinner (don't worry i did not eat anything "RAW", Although in Japan even pregnant ladies eat Raw Fish!).
We took the train to Uraga and ate at one of our favorite sushi places.
I was not in the mood or something last night... maybe because it was so HOT....
the building was A/C'd... but the walk to and from the place and so on... Very hot.
Tammy... you need to show me again how to drive there. haha.
The kids really enjoyed the Shrimp last night & Ethan is pretty adventurous... I wish i could have ate more... but i was YUCK feeling once we got there.
Enjoy the pictures.


YUMMYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!


YUCKYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!! LOL

Sushi-Go-Round

Back in January I was invited to eat at a 100Yen Sushi Go Round in Uraga. (thanks Tammy!)
She drove, and it was really FUN!
About 1 week ago (maybe more) I suggested to Tammy that we try and take the train to Uraga & find that same Sushi Place.
So we did! :) Ethan joined us. It was fun and new to take the train to Uraga and see new sites on the way.
In this photo, we are @ Yokosuka-chuo Station waiting for a Train to Uraga.





We took the train, and the line Ended in Urage (Similar to Shin-Zushi's Station).

As soon as you exit the Uraga Station, walk across the street, and head down a small 'shopping' street. Your only walking about 1~2 blocks, and you will reach a 2 story building with a drug store on the 1st floor. There is Parking Provided, Pay by the hour. You cant miss it.
Walk up the Outdoor Stairs, to the 2nd floor, and you are @ 100Y Sushi in Uraga.

They have Booths & Bar stools.

Here are a few pictures of the food we enjoyed.
If you prefer, you can order off of the menu, and have it come around on the belt w/ your table name on the plate. It's the Same price, usually. Some items like Salad & Desserts are more, about 250Y... but you will know this, no worries.
They have Free Green Tea provided, and for 100Y you can get a small soda.

The following sequence of photo's is of Ethan unwrapping/making/eating a "Roll" that we ordered. All 3 of us had one, and i will say it was delish, and i will be getting more of those next time. The Seaweed was left for the individual to wrap around, so it's Fresh as possible. And, WOW! good choice! Mmmmmm













After rolled....... EAT!
It was VERY Good! :)

Shrimp w/ Soy sauce

More photo's of the other items we tried...





Here comes Dessert! See the "bowls" they are riding in? They have the Name/Color of our table on the side. When you special order, this is how it will be delivered to your table.



Now, as we were leaving, ... we saw this. It is Eggplant. It's Pickled.
It's Flavored like Wasabi... and NO! We did not try it. WOW... i am not THAT Adventurous! LOL

I hope you enjoyed the photo's!

Sushi-Go-Round

So, about 10 days ago while Evan was at school (Olivia too) I went to a Sushi-Go-Round.
My neighbor asked if i wanted to go, and of course i said YES.
I just love experiencing Japanese Food.
So, she drove, and we headed toward Uraga.
We took 16 south until it turned into 230 i think ... i don't know. HaHa... but i do know we followed the signs for Uraga. We JUST passed Uraga Station (Keiku line) and the Sushi place was up on the right. It was on the 2nd floor of a building.
This Sushi place had a lot of 100Yen sushi. It also had Sushi and Salads and such that were more than 100Yen (1$) .
It was fun, and Delicious!

When we got to the parking area they have Paid Parking. But, it's all Automated. You pick the # spot you want... pull in and park.
Then go eat.



This sign is just letting you know about their time and rate and how it works. Also there is a Phone Number... and emergency phone box.



When we were done eating we paid. The cashier gave us a ticket for parking.
We walked up to the machine and we entered our # and entered the card and it said 0Yen due.
Because we ate at Sushi we got Free Parking.
:) We had a certain amount of time to move the car before the timer popped up again.



This particular place had a "how to" in English!
I mean... I am having it Easy in Yokosuka. I was not as lucky at most places in Sasebo.
We would always just go in the place... smile and point. haha! It was always a Nice Surprise!
Almost every place we have been to in this are has English Menu's.



This is a Hot Water Dispenser at the table! Yup... just for Green Tea.
Thats my friend making me a cup! :) Such a Sweetie!



They offer the powdered type here, and at most places.
I enjoy green tea all ways... All the time.



At a Sushi go Round,....... the sushi goes around the restaurant. All you have to do is grab what you want. That's it... Easy! You eat until your done, and they count the plates.
The color of the plate tells how much $ money.
Drinks and Desserts go around the belt too!



This was my Favorite!!! It is Rice and Shrimp and Avocado and Onion and Mayo. Now, i am NOT a big Mayo fan... but it was good. 2 pieces for 100Y or 1$.



No... i did not eat this...
You would NEVER see Squid like this in America... haha! ;) !
I do like squid on my sushi... w/ wasabi and it has to be a piece of squid... not the whole squid!



My kids would be in heaven w/ Peel and Eat! :) and i would be too at 1$ per bowl! ;)



This is a Fried Japanese Potato... dipped in Honey and it was Soooooooooo Good!



YUP... 100Y and these were not small and sooooo good!



Here comes Dessert!
Choco Ice cream sitting on Frozen Banana's.
Also under the ice cream were Frosted Flakes and a Jello like substance.
All together with choco syrup and whipped cream LOL
What a Combo... but it was So Good for 250 ish Yen... or $2.50.



I was MORE than stuffed and it cost me under 1,000 Y (10$)



YES, i am a Food Lover... and a lot that i love about Japan is the Food. :) This should be called Our Crazy Navy Life & A's Love of Food.blogspot.com! haha

Oh, here is how they lock your car until you pay the fee for parking.
Dont you think this is a GREAT idea? America should catch on!
