Food Adventures in Japan: Midori Sushi

Steve spotted Midori Sushi when he was out walking earlier in the week. He noticed it because there was a long line of people waiting to get in for lunch. Our concierge confirmed that it was a great place. On our last day we decided to have our final sushi meal. We got there early enough but when we left it was packed. I ordered an assortment and Steve ordered his favorites along with their "Californian Roll". This was the only time we saw sushi rolls like the ones in America at a Japanese sushi place. Usually the only rolls are thin rolls with a single ingredient, like tuna or cucumber.

The Californian Roll got a look from the woman sitting at the table next to us. She was an elderly woman, sitting alone, looking very intense and serious, keeping to herself, but when the roll was delivered she looked over and couldn't help but grin a little. We saw her look and tried to talk to her but she was shy. We had a good laugh watching her watch us eat the sushi.
