As different as every year is, there are some things that I look forward to every time January rolls around again (in chronological order): Seeing my friends during my birthday Designing a menu and seeing it come to life on Valentine’s Day Getting hyped for the release of a new Kanye West album even though […]

He’s taken the Crown Not everyone is equipped to deal with the weight of expectation. It’s what separates the great from the merely good. For the great ones, you’ve earned the right for people to expect the world from you. You’re LeBron James every time you step on the basketball court, you’re Meryl Streep every […]

I’ve been self isolating ever since I bought a Nintendo Switch in 2018. I go out so little and stay in touch so sporadically that my 3 best friends in the world right now are: The Girlfriend The fake pot plant I bought from K-Mart Captain America Shield cushion So as my Switch stands on […]

This is going to be a long post so let me get to the drop the mic line as quickly as possible. There’s nowhere you rather be ju-rin dinner than at the sushi bar inside Hana Ju-Rin. Located in the very back of the restaurant behind a grill, bar and the ghosts of thousands of […]

Makoto Sushi Bar, CBD
This was my one dish that was made to order and it arrived piping hot. The chicken encased in karrage batter was incredibly moist and tender. Admittedly; I wouldn’t have noticed if it had been burnt and dry because Japanese mayonnaise makes everything better. I wish they had offered more mayo. Maybe like a bottle I could’ve taken home with me.

Eel sushi is my favourite. Whoever figured out that cream cheese and eel are best friends deserves whatever they want in life. My two eel topped morsels were quite large and topped with deep fried crisps. I ate these two so fast that the flavours barely registered. When they did, it felt like I was receiving a tongue massage from the finest foods the ocean and dairy Gods could offer.
Oh my. So good.
