Kabuki

So Jessie and I tried the new sushi restaurant, Kabuki, today.  It opened at the beginning of March and was at most mediocre.  It's right across the street from Kyoto on 109th Street (University location) and I think I would much rather go to Kyoto next time!  Anyways, here are the photos we managed to snag with the iPhones:

Salmon Sashimi - Tasted kind of like Zen sashimi, so definitely nothing great

Left:  Edmonton Roll - Prawn Tempura, Spicy Tuna and Crab

Right:  Chopped Scallop Roll

The Chopped Scallop Roll was probably the best roll, but they both kept falling apart, so it wasn't very impressive.

Beef Tataki - The sauce was sweet and watered down tasting, the beef tasted kind of strange and the onions were WAY too raw

Assorted Tempura - Probably the best thing we had all night because you can't really mess up tempura!

In conclusion, this is another one of those try-hard Japanese restaurants that just doesn't make it in my books.  Maybe I'll try it in a year or so if it still exists?

Red Pianos

I think I will see some on Friday :)
What should I order??  They both sound delicious!
