Yanks Lose - We Go to Takahashi

The game was over. The girls looked at me with those eyes and asked and teased gently and I broke down easily. We took the 4 Train to 125th, the 6 to 96th, picked up Jessi's car and drove downto Avenue A.

We had a white tuna sashimi that was really good. We all had miso soup. I had a Sapporo. Dani had a salmon skin hand roll, jessi one with unagi and i had spicy yellowtail.

We had more than that but I don''t remember right now. Yesterday before the game Dani and I ate at SambaSushi and the two events run together.

Samba Sushi was a first for me. I think Dani ate there before.

Anyway, it was good. We weren't that hungry because I went to Whole Foods - the new one in Union Square - in the building that housed a Woolworth's for year and I maybe a May's Department Store.

I bought Green Mountain Chips, WF Hummus and salmon spread. We ate it in the park (ruining the original plan of having an early sushi dinner.) But the salmon spread was really really good.)

We walked all over Grammercy Park trying to find a sushi bar we had eaten at last year some time (maybe even the year before.) We had gone to Yoshi's but they were closed and that's when we found this other place. What we were really doing is walking off some of the salmon salad/hummus and chips.

There has to be seven or eight sushi bars in a six square blocks.

In fact there was another one two doors down from Samba Sushi.

Samba Sushi - modern cool look. Sushi bar booths and a few nooks and crannies. We sat at the bar and had o-toro and amberjack. We had uni and ukura and it was all great.

Then it was off to Yankee Stadium - - - the Yanks lost and we went to Takahashi. It's All Good.
