[sumo] GREAT ANNOUNCEMENT

[Takanomizu]

I don't know which sushi restaurant they were in, but we're going to LA for 
2 days to eat sashimi at Sushi Gen. Of course, we're also shopping for 
Japanese books & food too. But since we can get everything we need here in 
the desert, you know it's the sashimi thats the draw!

Sushi Gen only does traditional Japanese sushi.  No Catapillar rolls there. 
The sashimi dinner has enough toro/chu-toro to keep me happy for 3-4 months.
