Meal: drinks and snacks

My thoughts:
I came here with a coworker friend of mine to unwind after work. Neither of us were terribly hungry, so we each ordered a drink and a sushi roll.

I had the Tropical Martini ($6.50) and my friend the Blue Cosmotini ($6.50). Both were very good.

For food, I had the Firecracker Dream Roll ($5.99), with raw scallop, tempura flakes and spicy mayonnaise. I have never been a big fan of raw scallop, and I honestly don't know why I ordered this knowing there was some in the roll. I guess I wanted to try something different. This wasn't too bad, but rather bland. I definitely had to use a generous dab of wasabi to give it a good kick. My friend had the Dynamite Roll ($5.99) with shrimp tempura, avocado and mayonnaise. I've had this roll many times in the past; this was nothing special.

So no big dining discoveries made today as far as good eats go. This was more of a catch up and hang out session, and this was certainly a good place for that. (I have been to Spring Rolls at Yonge and Sheppard a number of times recently with my department. Because my boss was there, I didn't want to bust out my camera, but I have definitely discovered some good dishes on those visits!)
