Much like Christmas, we decided to lay low for New Year. But here's a sort of festive shot from a wedding we had the pleasure of attending a few weeks back! Many congrats "YY" and "Q"!
All the Missus really wanted was some Poke and Karei Karaage this year. So I hopped into the car and drove up to Marukai Costa Mesa. Even though the Marukai here in San Diego is getting better, the fish department is still lacking. When I arrived at 915 the parking lot was empty, when I left at about 945am the parking lot was packed.
And after making a few stops in the "OC" (you know I was going to make the most of the drive), I came home and made Poke for lunch.
As for the Karei Karaage, I've posted on it a few times before, so I'll spare you all.
I just wanted to do a quick post and wish everyone a safe, fun, and Happy New Year!
Best wishes from the gang at mmm-yoso for a great New Year!
Happy New Year to you and the MMM-Yoso gang! :)
