The bread is served at Bossa Nova, and the constant requests for more prompted the couple to start a bakery where they could share... read more >
We think our fellow diner said it best during our recent lunch excursion to Sushi Cafe in the Heights. “If this Naruto roll was a man, I’d marry it.” We concurred. Simple in composition but complex in flavor, the Naruto roll is made with thinly sliced cucumber wrapped around a choice of crabstick, salmon, tuna or yellowtail and avocado... read more >
