Sushi

Last night we went to Fontana Sushi, one of our fav’s in our neighborhood. They know us, and the older woman who served us was so happy to see Lauren again. They surprised us with a special roll that they made just for her (free- how nice :) )- it was laid-out fancy on a plate with garnish and all, and the pieces were tiny, just right for her hands. The outside was made of egg (yep- :( ) and inside unagi, all drizzled in a special sweet BBQ sauce. She explained how it was all cooked and safe for a baby (this same lady chastised me a few months ago when I gave her uncooked- oooops!) and they made it up just for her. Luckily Lauren was interested in the fish tank when she dropped it off- because she certainly could not eat a roll made of eggs. As soon as the lady walked away we chopped a bunch of the pieces up like we were giving them to Lauren and Jeff and I chowed down a few. It was so yummy and I am sure Lauren would have loved to have her own special roll- darn egg allergy! It really is a bummer sometimes…
