Daughter Vicky has never been to Todai, so we went there today.
I think everyone should experience it at least once.

We started on the salad sushi side and worked our way back to the
dessert buffet. I had some sushi, a green tea noodle salad that was
made with some spinach and radicchio, it was fabulous. I also had the
green bean salad which is one of my favorites. I tried a tofu salad,
even though I like tofu it was not something I'd do again. It was
topped with what tasted like some kind of dried shredded fish, I wish
I knew what it was, I really liked it.

I didn't take good notes today so I'm not sure what sushi is what. I
do know it was all delicious and fresh.

I then had some miso soup, two different types of delicious shrimp,
tempura vegetables that were not overcooked, they still had a bite to
them. The spicy fried calamari could have been a little spicier and
the squid rings were very good but bordered on a little chewy. Ah, BBQ
rib was juicy and tender and the BBQ sauce was not too sweet. I also
had a green mussel topped with a light cheese sauce, delicious.

Thankfully they serve delectable little bites of desserts, that way
you can have a nice variety of treats.

We decided we prefer sitting at a sushi bar for our sushi, but we
enjoyed our meal immensely. I'll be more diligent next time with my
food notes so I can give a better description of the flavors, but it
all was delicious, and you can't beat that.
