sac bee puff piece for mikuni

The Bee never gets sick of hyping the Mikuni empire. C'mon, are we supposed to believe this guy really didn't wear shoes to school for a year? Yeah, right.

Here's a thing about the guy that's going to open Tex Wasabi's, by Arden Mall. I guess I thought that sign on the closed down building was a joke or something cuz the name was so dumb.

Actually Sushi IS what's wrong with America.

Liberals, your sushi money is going right into Neil Bush and other conservative republicans' pockets, courtesy of the Rev. Sun Moon.

I actually know that guy, er, gentleman (his real name is Guy) who is mr. finalist on that show, although I only met him a few times (he's from Humboldt County, and it being the size it is I've met most everyone at one time or another). But all his cuisine-making has been down south and I am a bit skeptical of the style of food as described. And as for that name, well...

I ate at Zokku last night, which was terrible. The owner had this article in his hand and just shit talked about Taro's the whole time.

The Dude is from Kumamoto!!!Which is totally like the sticks.Amakusa even worse like the sticks on Mars.But great ocean views,sangria and hot springs.I give the em` props just because i`ve been living in Kumamoto for the last 2-3 years.It`s a cool place with great culture and the prefecture is know for it`s shoo chuu and friendly drunken-ness.As for mikuni type of place here--forget it..Most sushi places are beer sweaty,smoke filled and loud for the everyday workin` folk.Good thing to expierence.I think you only getting a half of a show in Sactoe.If the place was more down to earth and only if he didn`t live in Granite Bay..Maybe some folks call that "selling out" or "movin on up"..So now i only give him a half prop for name of godzilla rolls.The word "gaijin" means outsider so if your sensitive the proper word is gaikoku-jin..Unless it`s a bunch of school girls yellin` gaijin which i love.The rest time it can be tiring` and folks do get upset.Today`s english class was okinomiyaki,3 glasses of wine and some mikans and pineapples.Buzzed by noon and paid for it..Suki Desu Jay

I love the kumamoto report! Tell me more! I can't wait to start getting the Liberia report soon from J.C. (not jesus christ).
