Mmm… Shogun

Tonight we went to my favorite sushi place…Shogun in Overland Park, KS.

(Yes, Kansas seems an odd place for the mecca of sushi, but I’ve eaten sushi in every town I visit.  Shogun is best, though Maki in Irvine, CA isn’t too shabby.)

So there’s only one problem…I’m vegan. 

I do have an ace up my sleeve.  Given that when I was eating fish, I routinely droped $80-$100 a meal there, I’ve celebrated my last 7 birth days there and my son’s birthdays (including the night he was born) there, the chef was nice enough to make me a roll with the following ingredients:

• Tofu
• Tempura Asparagus
• Carrot
• Japanese Pickles

I highly recommend everyone trying it.

This brings up a question, though.  Would you, my loyal readers, be interested in a short set of posts on making sushi at home?  It’s easier than it sounds, I promise…
