Sushi-Ya

My cousin Ginny and her Italian-American husband John were in town late last month, and we took some time to bring them out to a Japanese dinner at Gwammy's favorite, Sushi-Ya, along Tomas Morato.  My hesitation about eating in this area is usually due to the tight parking situation, but this time we were lucky to get a slot on the side street without having to wait.  We were a big group that wouldn't fit in the ground floor, so we were shown up the stairway, a good idea since we had the second floor of this popular-priced restaurant all to ourselves.  The kids quickly munched on the gyoza and tempura, while the adults took their time to savor the sashimi and the sushi (these dishes we ordered enough to share).  For our main dish however, each of us had their own order prepared.  I took the bento box with tenderloin cubes as my main course, and it was quite appetizing.  My feeling however, was that serving sizes are portioned out--when they say good for 1 person, it means exactly that--no room for abundance there.  Expect to spend something like P300 per head.
