October 21st, 2009 at 7:59 am
Back-to-back congrats to NaPueo! Two good!
Dat looks like one really ono dinner at Yohei Sushi Restaurant.
Go Angels (on life support)!! Go Phillies!!!
October 21st, 2009 at 8:25 am

i dunno... i can't place the chawanmushi and the soba! lots of places don't have that stuff!! you've stumped me again, ed! hopefully, it's someplace i've never been to so i can go check it out later!

Gyotaku
October 21st, 2009 at 8:59 am
Yanagi
October 21st, 2009 at 9:00 am
I would also like to say Tsuruya but they don't have sashimi.
October 21st, 2009 at 9:01 am
But the countertop looks like Tsuruya.
October 21st, 2009 at 9:01 am
Maybe it's not Kunio. Most of that would've been in a bento box.
October 21st, 2009 at 9:02 am
Congrats Na Pueo!!
I think tita get um dis time. I was going say Kunio.
October 21st, 2009 at 9:04 am

... whoa, Ed ... I missed you!! ... well, not you, the blog ... oh, well, ok I missed you too, of course ... but in the most (*in deep voice*) masculine guy way!!! ...
... not that there's anything wrong with guy love ... but, oh frick!!! ... I'm digressing so badly ... just typing as I'm thinking and ... what the heck was this blog about now??? ...
... ok start again ... I just meant to say that I nevah know you had the new blog up again ... geez, was that so hard??? ... I should go back and edit out everything I said before but I just going leave em on ...
... anyway, I've only eaten out at one Japanese restaurant recently ... and it was at Hinone Mizunone on King Street ... so that's my obligatory guess ...
... Have a Good One Everyone!!! ...

October 21st, 2009 at 3:55 pm
Ichiriki.
October 21st, 2009 at 4:52 pm
If it's Yohei, it would make sense since the owner is the brother to the owner of Maguroya. Something about the Miso soup and chawanmushi makes me thing more Maguroya than Yohei though...
October 21st, 2009 at 5:44 pm
I have no idea but people seem to have mentioned a ton of good restaurants!
October 21st, 2009 at 5:45 pm
@J-Dog - Hinone is so good!! I've been there a couple times and no matter what I get it's ono!

Folks, give Yohei a try, excellent sushi, seafood specialties. The place is very busy so reservations are a must. Tiny place, you going be rubbing elbows with patrons next to you but people come from all over to eat here, across the canal from the old GEMS in Kapalama. Try'em! No, I don't work there.
October 22nd, 2009 at 7:56 pm
Ed, da Phillies are hot!! You brought them luck! Good luck to Shane and da boys in the World Serious! The Angels still have a pulse but on the brink of winter vacation.
October 26th, 2009 at 9:16 pm
Hehe. Anyone know the Yohei owners that could get all of us a free meal outta this?
I know yeah Hobbz? I was in total shock! Usually pau by 2nd guess...
Hahaha! Sweet! Congrats Maks! You earned it!
Haha, tanks Maks! Took em a while to get to their winning ways, but ooj and I are happy they are starting to do well now.
