Where are you located & how far are you looking to travel. Fri May 04 14:44:04 -0700 2007 2542609 18536 St Paul Susie 1 2548148 Where DID you end up eating? If I'm in a tizzy about where to eat, it usually devolves to one of two possibilities: one of my local old familiars (which for me in MSP is Runyon's or Koyi or maybe the Monte), or someplace that's been on my list to try but haven't got around to yet (which next time may be Saffron, and last time was Toast and the time before that was the Bulldog NE).

Then to Anemoni for sushi with friends on Sunday night. I don't know much about sushi other than I really like what I've had, so some friends who go out for it all the time gave us a lesson. We tried 4 types of tuna nigari,squid, clam,, and some "fiery" roll and then had a caterpillar roll, an "Azia" roll, potstickers, edamame, tuna tataki? salmon skin roll, salmon roe, and a big bottle of sake. Then a nice flan for dessert. Full? YES! I thought the space was nice, the service attentive yet not overbearing and the pacing was great with the different choices coming out in a nice rhythm. Not cheap, by any means, but a nice experience overall. Mon May 07 10:34:57 -0700 2007 2548148 76918 happysnacker 3 2549800 Love the pasta bar! good choice!
