Taro Sushi

This spot is a little new to the neighborhood.  It moved from its Dean Ave location to the corner of St. Marks Ave and Flatbush in Brooklyn a little over a year ago.  It replaced the Dunkin Donuts that was there.  I always remembered passing it on the way home and wanted to see what it was about.  The setting is really cute and intimate but aren't all Japanese restuarants cute and intimate?  The staff is super nice too.  It's a keeper!

Plum wine was great as always.

From left to right: Spider Roll (soft shell crab), Spicy Tuna Roll and Real Crab California Roll.
Spider roll was really good.  I laughed when I saw "Real Crab" California Roll because anybody who knows California rolls know they use imitation crab. Soooo I had to try the REAL one lol.  I've never seen that at any other Japanese restaurant.  It actually did taste different and had the texture similar to a Tuna Roll.  It was yummy :)

Salmon... Mom's Version

Mom made salmon that was finger licking good.  I did a post on how I did it my way here.  Of course hers tasted much better!  We had it with yellow rice and steamed bok choy with carrots.  She used the same ingredients from my previous post.

Looks like steak.  She wraps them in foil before they go into the oven. They were so juicy inside :)
