sushi, eagle pass has got it, sort of

apparently
all sushi rolls
must have cream cheese
i like cream cheese, but
not in my sushi rolls
i mean, ok, sometimes i might eat a piece of philadelphia roll
if i'm at a buffet or it's on an assortment tray or something
but i'd never order a whole order of anything with cream cheese

cause then you can't really taste the fish properly

and no sashimi, none at all

there are a few other things
but
i don't wanna sound like i'm bashing em
because i'm not

i got the spicy tuna roll
which contained no cream cheese
and is my core go to roll anyway

they brought out basically two rolls for $8.95
which left me pleasantly surprised
and they were good

they brought out a little dish of soy sauce
chock full of serrano peppers
which i ate with my overcooked stir fry vegetables
and the resultant serrano soy sauce is a happy find
much better with the spicy tuna roll
than the wasabi i usually mix into the soy sauce
which makes it double the same kind of hot
instead of layering

the restaurant was beautiful
it had the look of:

i went away to college in a real city
and discovered this whole sushi thing
and i'm determined to get eagle pass up to speed


so
serrano soy sauce
be thinking about it
