How were you introduced to sushi? A girlfriend at the time took me out to Sushi.

I eat it about 1-2 times a month but would like to go once a week.

What is your favorite sushi restaurant? Why?

Takamatsu in Chandler, AZ. Great staff and food. Prices are very reasonable and they have an all you can eat menu.

Burning Man, that was an act of faith…
