I am glad I can cook, because I almost always can get what I want to eat.

I don't like Sushi. It is because I used a microscope a couple of times.

Sprechen sie Deutsche?

Also , the little things you seen under the microscope is what gives sushi its taste

One of my best friends was in charge of the fish dept. in Dean & DeLucca's in NYC- His wife and Japanese who happens to be an ex-Ford agency super model. He said be very,very careful about eating sushi in warm climates--tons of parasites--I used to eat sushi every week here, but on his advice I no longer do---not worth the risk

I assume you're referring to Tommy's…….or maybe I have that wrong, are you a Cincinnati girl? Then my guess would be LaRosa's.

Last year when Riccardi's opened they started off with a bang...great food, excellent service and fair prices. There were a lot of positive responses here on TOTV. We expected the same last night when we brought a new couple with us to try it out on our recommendation. Granted they were very busy (Scooter was playing) but they still have fallen now in their quality of food preparation, in our judgement. Our lady friend with us had a pasta dish and there was hardly any sauce to be found on her pasta! The waiter also never offered any cheese to go on top of her dish. Half way through her dish the waiter was finally tracked down and he did go back to the kitchen and add more sauce to her bowl. My wife had a pizza and the toppings were also very scarce and a fourth of her pizza was missing ingredients (just bare bread) where the preparer took no effort in spreading the toppings equally. I do hope this place gets back to where it started and learns from these mistakes because I know they are capable of preparing good food.
