Life In Da Burbs

I had a business meeting/dinner last night at Yasuda Sushi. Near the UN, the restaurant is often visited by foreign dignitaries and x-pats from all over the world. Plus their sushi is some of the best I've ever had.... period. My co-worker and I invited one of my favorite Food TV / Radio hosts to sit down and just chat about what we love, food. We had a blast! MC is one of the most knowledgeable people I've ever met in the biz. His passion for good food is intense and to top it off, he's a great person. **more to come

I have been dining out a whole lot recently. It's been a lot of Japanese food so I don't feel that bad.... Afterall, it's good for you. (right guys?) Starting from last week, it's been a parade of gastronomique delights. 7-12 Yakitori Totto 7-13 Hiroko's Kitchen 7-17 Sushi Seki & Aburiya 7-18 Aquavit 7-19 Lan Restaurant 7-20 Aburiya 7-21 Hamptons & Chanto 7-24 Yasuda Sushi & Sakagura *7-25 15 East *7-26 L'Atelier Robuchon *7-27 Pho Trang *pending - not gone yet, but scheduled to dine.
