Lizz, Linna and I went to Miyako in Great Lakes Crossing around section 7 or so. It has both sushi and japanese style steak. I have been to this place several times and was pretty satisfied.
One of the reasons I like this place is because they have a salad dressing I really like. Almost every Japanese restaurant serves this kind of simple lettuce salad, but this one has a slightly different dressing. They also don't overdress it and make it salty. I sometimes-and this time-ask for another bowl of salad.
Linna ordered Akedashi Tofu appetizer that was served with light dipping sauce and a shrimp tempura. I thought the tofu lacked the special texture of the fried coating that it should have, but the tofu itself was soft and nice.
Linna, who does not eat raw fish, simply ordered an avocado roll. Lizz ordered Spider Roll and california roll, and I ordered French Roll and two pieces of amaebi(sweet shrimp) nigiri.
Though I am not a big fan of sushi, there are three types of nigiri I love to order. One is tamago, the soft egg custard with slightly sweet taste, Unagi(fresh water eel cooked with sauce), and amaebi.
This is my French Roll, though I don't know where the name came from. Its main ingredient is shrimp tempura, coming with crab and cucumber. This was good and so was Lizz's spider roll with soft shell crabs. Well, but I personally think sushi "rolls" that taste bad are such a shame; it is hard to make it taste bad unless you use bad ingredients or smother it with too much rice. Nigiri is different, but rolls, as good and overpriced as it is, are pretty easy to make.
Lizz ordered a cheesecake for dessert. I thought it was interesting how it has those little umbrella-like pick presentation. The cheesecake was soso but pretty rich.
Linna got a redbean mochi icecream. Though I do not like redbeans, this one did not have too strong of a taste and therefore good for both Linna and me.
They always give these cute orange cuts for dessert. This place is mainly a Japanese "Steakhouse" but the sushi is pretty good too, compared to a lot of poor places.
