For my mom's (Young) birthday I treated my parents to some Japanese. I like Sushi King Japanese Restaurant in Columbia, MD. Although it's not owned by Japanese...'there aren't that many Japanese owned restaurants here...' their sashimi (raw fish) are thick and fresh enough for me. Love it!

I originally planned to get a sushi boat but my parents wanted to also try Shabu-Shabu, the Japanese Hot Pot. Shabu-Shabu or Hot Pot is made with hot broth soup and you cook all sorts of vegetables and meats. I personally think it is a very healthy meal since you get to eat all different kinds of vegetables and others...

When you order Shabu-Shabu, you get raw meat like this and other veggies and noodles already in the broth. Make sure you cook it thoroughly before you eat! ^^

and you get portable burner like this and cook it on the table. The pot seemed to be very small to us. Hah hah...when we cook at our house we cook it in a large pot...we'll post our style Shabu-Shabu recipe in the future. Heh Heh. You also get soysauce and lemon sauce where you can dip stuff from the pot. I love eating soup from it too so make sure you get a spoon as well. (We had to ask for the spoons and the extra bowl since our server forgot to bring it to us.) Hot soup is always good! Yummmmm

And our sushi platter was very good too ^^ We killed it. Heh heh. However, I didn't really like squid? thingy the white one was little to mushy for me...

and since it was a special day we had to get a scoop of Green Tea Ice Cream!!!! Love, Love, and LOVE!!!
(HINT***If you love Green tea Ice cream as much as I do, You can buy this at H-Mart too***)

Other customers around us all ordered all sorts of rolls and they looked good too. But like all other Japanese Restaurants, prices are little too high for me to go too often...(raw fish is not that good to eat too often anyways....whew) but once in a while it is a special treat for me and my family and I love this restaurant. How about you?

p.s. miso soup and salads are good too ^^ and I like their flavored bubble gums too (This you can also get at an Asian Market LOL)
Oh and it may be wise to make a reservation if you are going there for the weekend.
