We went to one of our favorite Japanese restaurants Nishino to take advantage of special pricing on their Omakase meal (your courses are the chef’s choice). Since it was Halloween, the waitstaff and some of the sushi chefs were having a costume contest and you voted for your favorite. We voted for the waitress dressed as a Shrimp Tempura Hand Roll (it looked like it was all hadcrafted out of fabric: black shiny material for the seaweed, shrimp tempura tail on top of her head, asparagus, cucumber, and a picked ginger corsage on her wrist!)

We had a really delicious meal, my favorite was white tuna sashimi salad and for dessert was mochi (green tea, pumpkin and white chocolate raspberry), my favorite flavor white chocolate and raspberry mochi. But one of the most interesting things at the restaurant was “candy sushi” that was available for everyone on a plate up front. Sorry for the poor quality picture taken from my phone but hopefully you get the idea.
