You know that old saying "You can take the girl out of the Country, but you can't take the Country out of the girl"? Well, that pretty much sums up what I'm all about. Growing up on a dairy farm was where I learned that meat and potatoes is what is supposed to be on the dinner plate. With a glass of milk, of course.
I got over the milk part early on but the meat and potatoes stuck with me for a very long time. So when I was invited to go out for sushi, I resisted with a passion. While my friends ate raw fish, I tried my best to eat tempura and teriaki chicken which I didn't care for either.
Then I stuck my toe in the water and I tried a California Roll. (I know, I know, some of you are rolling your eyes right now, California Rolls don't qualify as sushi). Hey, they were good! Even that green stuff is good. Hot, but good. Hey, look at me, I'm eating sushi! This was the type of event that would inspire me to call Mom. Mom ... guess what?
The years have gone by and I have slowly but surely tried just about everything on a sushi menu. After avoiding sushi restaurants for most of my life, I'm now starting to get really picky about which ones I will patronize. Who knew? And that brings me to Boathouse Sushi.
In my mind, Boathouse Sushi rose from the ashes. The restaurant that was there previously can only be described as a dive. And I don't mean dive in the good sense. I didn't dine at Boathouse Sushi for the longest time because of the inferior impression I already had of the physical building.
I kept hearing a lot of really good reviews from friends and they kept telling me you have to go, you have to go. So I went ... and I was pleasantly surprised. The atmosphere was great. The employees were great. The FOOD was great. How much do I like this place? I take my family there for dinner on special occasions, that's how much I like it.
