Asian Cuisine

My sister and I had lunch the other day at our favorite Japanese restaurant. Over the past 7 years, sushi has become so popular that there are as many restaurants on each corner block in town as there are churches. It's G-d vs Sushi here.

We chose this restaurant because we both love some of their unique roll combos they make. When we first ate sushi, it was so addicting we ate at this restaurant at least three times a week or more. The staff got to know us, but it didn't have any other benefit other than us knowing the waitresses by first name and vice verse.

For the past three weeks, the service at this restaurant has declined. On my last visit, I waited twenty minutes to get my bill and to pay for it. There's nothing worse when you are wanting to leave a place and can't.

Anyway, we went to the restaurant right before the busy lunch crowd. We placed our food order, were served our drinks in a timely fashion and then sat and waited over an hour for our meals.

Our waitress never came back to check up on us. We had to snag another to get our food, and of course, by that time it was stone cold. I wasn't about to waste another hour of my life sending it back when I had to get back to the office.

My sister complained but it did nothing. I didn't even bother saying a word because I knew it was in vain. What was the point? Most Asian restaurants don't give you a free drink, appetizer or dessert. Complaints go on deaf ears. You just get "Sew Solly."

There are plenty of other sushi restaurants in the area that I like which are better, cleaner and nicer. Therefore, I've decided to boycott my once "favorite" restaurant.
