Weekend adventure – Revolving sushi, Domo and a surprise

We went to Diamond Jamboree in Irvine. A friend told me about it and said I had to check it out. I couldn’t help but snap away at all the cuteness. Like Domo! I’ve kept a loving eye on the Domo craze, I dig the simple design. Any amount of Japanese stuff all in one place brings a little impromptu happiness to the table. And, revolving sushi? It placates the impatient soul. The food comes around on a conveyor belt on little plates one serving at a time. They charge you per plate and there can be stacks by the time you’re done living it up. It’s not always the best sushi, but it’s good, easy and fun! And for the surprise, a statue! She’s the greeter at a ramen house and looks like Bob’s little sister! Love these things! I need a big rooster for the living room!

    Baked scallop is my FAVORITE!!! No joke! And it’s weird, but some sushi places don’t do it as a standard…I think a sushi meet-up should be on the horizon! :)
