So since this is my first post of July, I really started thinking - what's the purpose of this blog? Where is this going? I originally started it anticipating I would find all these neat, little "wonders" of Delaware that I would want to share with other Delawareans. As I continue, I'm finding it's becoming a mix of personal life and RESTAURANTS! Do we eat out that much?? Well, we don't have children. That helps. I know life in the future with kids in tow will be much different. But for now, with our family of three (dog child included) - I'm am thoroughly enjoying casual dining and exploring the city. But I am going to try to make an honest effort to go see places in Delaware (besides restaurants)! I promise. Plus I just like writing informally about our lives.
But I have to share! Tonight, Jason and I went out to dinner. Another restaurant...I know. His aunt gave us a gift card to a quaint, sushi place only a quarter of a mile away from us. I was so impressed with the decor, the service AND the food - I wanted to share. I have to share!
We went to Le Shio. Translation? Salt! Anyone who works with me knows that I have a slight obsession with salt and carry a small container in my purse. So when I saw the name - I was already intrigued. We arrived around 8 pm and had to wait about 10 minutes. I take this as a good sign, especially on a Friday night. They're busy. I like places that are busy. The decor? Super simple. Exposed pipes and beams, great lighting, open spaces - very warehouse/industrial-like. The service? Great. I'm easy to please as long as I have enough soy sauce and water. The food? Yum. Delicious. Tasty. Not enough - and I had four rolls!
Here is my before picture...yum!
Here is my after picture...
Yes, those are finger streaks. I really like eel sauce.
I would have licked my plate clean if it was socially acceptable.
And here's a snappy of us. Just because.
He's so handsome...
Until then...I hope you are enjoying your summer as much as I am!
