"Matsusaka has larger plates too, but these are fun to share as well if, like my friends and I, you like to sample everything. His black cod basted in miso, a sushi restaurant standard, is phenomenally rich, one of the better versions around, each bite clo..."

"Valentine"s Day, aka Hallmark Day, is a commercialized ploy to make money off tacky paraphernalia and make the single scurry around for a date like lions in Africa. I remember V-Day being a fun day during my elementary school years...."

"It took us a while to figure out what to order, and when we did, our waiter expressed his doubts. He went on to explain our choice of one small plate (think appetizers), one noodle dish, and one big plate (think entrée) is not much food and most customer..."
