Maria at the Beach, then Sushi Masu
Hanging out with Maria, on her once-a-year visit to Los Angeles, then dinner in the evening with Frances and Patrick at Sushi Masu.
Drove down Wilshire Blvd. to Santa Monica beach, stopping for chocolate and pastries on the way (how does Maria ever get anywhere? She gets sidetracked too much!), then played in the sand for a bit. Santa Monica Pier is taking down their ferris wheel, and we couldn't see any explaination as to why.
t'was good to hang out, as usual!
Had dinner with Frances and Patrick afterwards at Sushi Masu. I should have taken a picture of the today's specials because I can't remember the names of all of the fish we had, but it was extremely delicious as usual. =D The uni wasn't great this time, but I ordered it anyway, as even average uni at Sushi Masu is still pretty good.
There are better places, but not too many, and if you don't want to spend serious money, Sushi Masu is about as good as it gets. For more money, places like Hiko Sushi, Sushi Sushi, and a not-inconsiderate number of places are better, but unloading 50% more at Hiko is not something I can afford to do very often. =) (or Kappo Ishito, where I have only eaten there once and probably will not be able to afford the opportunity to eat there again for a very, very long time unless I find another job where the owners can afford to treat me... o_0 )
