Rise in Temp. Sees Rise in My Sushi Consumption
A heat wave still grips L.A.—and much of the country for that matter. And I'm still craving sushi. (Remember what I said a couple posts ago about that.) I stopped by Nijiya Market hoping to curb my desire with a heavy dose of raw fish—sashimi plate.
Call me in the morning and I'll let you know if that was just what the doctor ordered to kick my habit.
