Happy Fish Sushi

Chicken Teriyaki Noodle Bowl

So, I had this yummy bowl at Happy Fish Sushi. What can I say? This place became one of my new favorite restaurants. I wasn't even interested in sushi until I came here with some friends. I usually just get sushi from there, but I decided to try something different to see if they had good food besides sushi and crab rangoons. It was a slight challenge for me to get the chicken off of the sticks (I was expecting teriyaki chicken literally in the bowl of noodles). I felt ridiculous trying to bite the chicken off, then I attempted cutting it off with a knife which ended up working out pretty great. I can't wait to stop by there in the fall and try something new again.

Grand Lux Cafe

Miso Glazed Salmon

This lovely salmon dish comes from one of my favorite restaurants that I visit once every blue moon, Grand Lux Cafe. Another great thing about Grand Lux is that they have awesome bread and butter. Yes, bread and butter. If a restaurant has a delicious pairing of bread with butter, they have won my heart over before my true meal even arrives. Sometimes, I have to be reminded not to eat too much bread because then I won't eat my meal, obviously.

look at that interior decorating!

Anyway, if you like the Cheesecake Factory, then you'll like Grand Lux Cafe because they're related anyway.
