Totally agree ! rating restaurants is a way to avoid facing these nasty things that we find in our dish. “its not like they rate the rest like the states.. giving them a grade of A B C or watever..” by ok go.

Gross. I think the restaurants over here would benefit from a bit of focus - that is partly why the restaurants in Japan are superior - they stick to one area of Japanese food and try to excel at it.

I was at Maki at the Avenues this weekend. Our bill is 30 KD on average; either lunch or dinner. I always forget why I don't go there more often (other than exhorbitant prices): the menu. It is 12 pages long and nothing makes sense to me. It might be better if they had pictures, but I can never figure out what I'm going to get. I'm stickin to Sakura. Thanks for the heads-up.
