I'm getting pretty hungry. Saving stomach.
Going to take mom to go eat at TomiSushi. They have some good Chicken and Beef Sukiyaki. Its big enough to keep me full for the day after I eat it.
Might even go out and eat Mother's Day dinner with Stepdad. Don't know if it will happen. Last Year we went to eat at Chef Chu's or something like that on Mother's Day.

Not sure where he taking mom for dinner today. Maybe Kyoto Palace for some Steak and Lobster :fingerscrossed:

Dinner was at home. My mom wanted to cook something instead of going out to eat for dinner.
The Chicken Sukiyaki was way too much for her when we went to eat lunch at TomiSushi. She liked it since there was a lot of chicken though :hehe:

Speaking of K-food. My uncle told me bout this place called Palace BBQ *i think thats it* Its pretty much All you can eat Korean BBQ. Something like Yakiniku if I'm right. He said there is this grill at your table, you just grab whatever you want to eat and toss it on there. Sounds good and tasty :mrgreen:

so.. how was your brazlian bbq experience?

thanks for inquiring...funny you should ask because i was thinking about mentioning it...it was quite the feast....i must say the food was excellent....well seasoned, cooked right and of high quality....
FIFTEEN TYPES of grilled meat from filet mignon wrapped in bacon, beef short ribs, lamb sausage and chops, top sirloin, chicken, etc...seasoned in variety of ways, with spices, sea salt & pepper, garlic....the salad bar is also abundantly accommodating with the usual items as well as some others that i found surprising....imported soppresata salami, proscuitto, real parmasean carved from a wheel of reggiano...imported balsmic vinegars and olive oils....buffalo mozzarella, breads, veggies...it's ridiculous.

incredible towers of wine and one of the best wine lists in L.A. if that's your thing


the service is relentlessly quick...the meat comes in a rapid flurry if you want and can handle it...the wait staff is enormous...

the restaurant was incredibly crowded....reservations are a MUST...it was so L.A. there were sooo many gorgeous females....i saw like 5 or 6 porsches (at least) pull out in five minutes. a good experience but expectedly expensive....flat rate for dinner is 52 bucks.
