Sushi King Japanese Restaurant in Columbia, MD


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!

Vit Goel-Lighthouse Tofu House-Korean Restaurant in Rockville, MD

Menu for Vit Goel Vit Goel Restaurant Specializes in Soondooboo/Soondubu Jjigae, which is Soft Tofu stew. I love their stew. There's another Vit Goel in Virginia, but I think Rockville Vit Goel tastes better. Sometimes they expect you to order as soon as you seat down...(impatient servers as usual) but their service is pretty good.

Since it specializes in Soondubu, there are many different style of Soondubu Jjigae and you can choose how spicy your stew will be. You can even choose to make it not spicy at all.

This is the menu on the table. You might need to ask for a menu if you want to order sushi but most of what they offer will be on this small menu. Top half is your choice of Tofu soup and bottom half is different dishes like Galbi, other seafood dishes. They marked spicy ones and nicely described ingredients so you should have no problem.

Niko-Japanese Restaurant in Ellicott City, MD

If you live in Ellicott City and you love sushi, there's a great chance that you know about Niko's Sushi Lunch Buffet. Well it has been around for a while and quite popular to all different cultures. Niko is Korean-owned Japanese Restaurant, so if you go to their buffet, you'll be able to taste even some Korean Banchans/sidedishes there as well. (For Example dumplings/mandu and other veggies.)

I love sushi, rolls, sashimi..etc (Koreans have our own style Sashimi too!) and it's the closest one I can go during short Lunch break when I really one something not too greasy and anything with rice. LOL. Niko was really popular and still is but many people claim that Niko changed little bit...that their sashimi(raw fish)...got little "too thin," they say... Usually buffet sushi or rolls are packed with rice and less of sashimi and Niko 'used to' have smaller version of sushi so better to taste all different kinds but I do agree that they started to add more rice than usual. But hey, I think it's still Okay for lunch. Well, shall we see the picture?
