Asuka Hibachi

lyceum_arabica and I went out to Asuka, where I finally realized that a $10 food debt is just going to keep swinging back and forth as long as we treat each other to sushi dinners. But for my part I took the radical step of having non-sushi food, specifically their hibachi chicken and an appetizer of yakitori. Both were good, if similar in taste to each other and to teriyaki, in that sweet grilled meat space. It was also a fair bit of food, as the hibachi was basically a big pile of chicken chunks with some rice and vegetables; I ate, I thought, about half of my food. Two meals for $11 (menu price) isn't bad, especially compared with the $15 sushi dinner, though that also looked nice. Miso and weird orangey salad also came with our dinners.
Later I discovered I miss Yoshinoya, a Japanese fast food place I haven't been to since leaving Pasadena for San Francisco. I guess I've been craving Japanese food beyond the raw fish and sweet rice realms.
