sushi rock

It's no secret that George and I love to eat. We love trying new restaurants and finding the one restaurant that we make our "go to" place. Back home we loved eating sushi, and we had one place in Roseville that we would always eat at. Since we've been on island we haven't found a place that serves the same type of sushi rolls as back home. Until last weekend.

With the crappy weather coming down on us, we had to find other things to keep us busy on the weekend. We decided to try out a restaurant, Sushi Rock, after shopping at the mall. They had a menu quite similar to our favorite spot back home so we were excited to try it out! 

They had a large list of appetizers and decided on a jalapeño lovers one and it was really good! It was fresh jalapeños stuffed with spicy tuna and cream cheese then lightly battered in tempura and fried. It was topped with a couple sauces too. We will be getting it when we go back!

We also got 2 different rolls to split, the Firecracker and the Rosecran. I don't remember everything in the Firecracker, but it wasn't our favorite. It was tasty, but not as spicy as we thought it would be and the flavors lacked something extra. The Rosecran was a lightly fried roll and it was amazing! It had spicy tuna, crab and avocado. It was also topped with yummy sauces. What I really liked about the menu is that all their rolls had a picture and description. Sometimes, when picking out a roll it really helps to see a picture of it.

the rosecran... so yummy!!

We definitely found our new sushi restaurant on the island. We look forward to going back and trying more rolls! 

And speaking of food... I believe we are adapting to island cooking. When I first got here 3 months ago, I bought a 5 lb bag of rice (it's the smallest bag they sell). I was thinking it would last us a long time, but last night I cooked the very last of the bag! 

who ate all this rice?!
