Sushi and Tom Cruise Date

What does happiness look like?
To me it pretty much looks like this.  
Salmon Tartar.  Pure joy!

As you may have realised I do like my food but when we are given that special time off without the kids it means having a great meal without anyone making noises or moaning.  I don't get to eat sushi very often as to be perfectly honest I can eat a ton of it so that gets quite expensive (eek!).  I would rather not eat it at all if I can't keep eating till I'm happily full.  

But I digress.  

Date night was a couple of movies and a sneaky sushi in the middle, which is just my perfect sandwich. We had to go to a well-known conveyer belt style place but that was ok.  It's not the best sushi but it’s certainly good enough to make my movie night complete.  Thankfully husband got his good enough bottle of Sake, which means he is happy.   He is a total Sake snob (as he should be), but it makes his night when where you eat has the appropriate beverage to go with the food, even if its by the cinema.

We had a lovely selection or food and there were actually a number of things on the menu that I hadn’t had before at that restaurant which was really nice.  I was glad that they kept it changing up, as you can be stagnant when in a chain so it was a pleasant addition to my evening.  So of course I happily and promptly stuffed my face!


I will openly admit that having watched Tom Cruise throwing himself off buildings and saving the day with an equally kick ass woman, did make my night and of course sushi was a great meal to dissect the movie over too.  As long as you fancy a bit of fun and a lot of action go and see Mission Impossible.  Without the kids!  Although if your kids are more adventurous, then do take them for conveyer belt sushi fun.
