The other place is pretty good, they have a nice easy menu to order from (which is key, for me, because I don't know what the hell most of the stuff is). We (and by 'we' I mean 'I', as Jen had virtually no say in what I picked) ordered a ton of food last time and I had fun figuring out what stuff was based on the descriptions in the menu. I really like their Spinach Maki but their Agedashi Tofu isn't as good as your place. I got the Assorted Tempura which, last time, consisted of vegetables, shrimp, and some sort of fish, but this time there was no fish. At least I don't think there was? Hm. I kind of scarfed it down, so possibly I just mistook it for some unidentifiable vegetable (of which there were several).
I liked the toro well enough, it's just that the sashimi was something like 8 strips when I had intended to order a single strip (or whatever a single serving is), since I had never had it before. Also toro is kind of expensive. And Jen didn't like it, so I ended up feeding whatever I couldn't eat to the cats (and only Haiku ate it - Rory eyed it balefully and then stalked off). I haven't tried much else, though, since ordering fish I don't like means it will essentially be wasted.
And today they didn't give me chopsticks! I had to pick up the spinach maki with my fingers! Which was kind of fun, but - chopsticks! Practice! Dropping food on the desk when no one but me will know! *shakes head ruefully*
