Jessi, my cooworker used to be a sushi chef in NYC and his great friend owns Sushi Yu — he keeps telling me to go.
Haven’t been there yet…..btw, you watch tennis the way I do (and baseball too). Definately, focused on the “aesthetics” as well as the game itself. (i.e. before Derek Jeter gets up at the plate, I do a little sigh and say “Derek” sweetly…don’t know if you go that far…. 🙂
