When I first put up this blog I had absolutely no idea what I was doing or if I would even like doing it. I can happily say that I truly love taking pictures of my food and writing about it. But what really thrills me the most are all the lovely comments from my readers. Readers who span the globe on 6 continents, reaching out and visiting me in my little corner of cyberspace here in New York City. I want to thank all of you who have been visiting me from the beginning and for those of you who are new to my blog. Old friends and new friends who I have met along the way. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your wonderful comments on here and in private messages and emails. I truly appreciate them and it inspires me to cook more.


Thank you,

Sandi

Review: Yama Asian Bistro

I have decided to do restaurant reviews on my blog whenever I go out to eat.  Last night my husband and I took out our younger son for his 17th birthday.  He loves sushi so we took him to a place in called Yama Asian Bistro located in the Park Slope section of Brooklyn.  It is a local neighborhood place. They not only have sushi but other types of Japanese food and also Thai food.  The service was really good as was the food.   We mentioned that  it was my son's birthday and they brought him out a piece of cake free of charge.  I don't know what it was called but it tasted like a peanut butter cheesecake and was delicious. If you live in the New York area, I would definitely recommend Yama.  You won't be disappointed and we will definitely go back.

  1. That looks fabulous! and what a nice ending to the celebration, but yes, I'd never expect peanut butter cheesecake, but I'd never complain, it looks amazing!

  2. This looks delicious, and it appears that we share a love of seafood :) When we want Japanese food here we go to a place called Soho Bistro- a little pricey, but certainly worth it.

  3. Oh my, I wish we had a restaurant like this in my town. I guess I'll have to wait until I visit NY. I would go for the seafood teriyaki too. And probably the cheesecake as well.
