Lunch with Mom at Diawa

I hate to keep beating the same drum about the place, but I can't help it. Diawa is, by far, the best sushi place on the west bank. To make matters even more obnoxious, their kitchen is so much better than everybody else's, there's not even cause for comparison.

I know you're saying to yourself, does this ostrich, this Archibald who writes this blog, does he have a financial stake in the place? The answer is "no," but considering the amount of money I've doled out eating there, if there ever is an IPO, I will be shifting most of my stock portfolio near the corner of Barataria and Lapalco.

Today's newest dish of interest was a Gyoza Soup. Twice as large as their regular soups (and still only around $3), the broth had a bacon-y flavor, and as we all know, bacon makes everything better. It was tremendous.

Add to that the Tuna and Pepper Tuna sashimi, and an assortment of rolls, and the moms and I had an altogether terrific lunch.

This is what our table looked like when we left.
