Lou's Diet Diary: Delicious Sushi

I like sushi but I don't LOVE it like some of you out there. I'm always amazed with those people who say they can eat sushi EVERYDAY. Come'on, you've got to have a little pizza, steak, chicken parm every so often.

Anyway, I've never met anyone who doesn't LOVE the restaurant NOBU (my wife Monica's favorite!). I've been to the NOBU in South Beach, Las Vegas, Mykonos Greece, and now New York. I was invited by my good friend Pete Vasilios Rezos and his group and talk about a feast!!! Ok, my man Pete took over and ordered enough food for an army (always good to go with someone who knows what their doing). I'm telling you this because if you're like me, you usually eat sushi and still feel a little hungry, right? Not last night!!! Pete ordered:


Toro Tartare (Nobu's signature dish)
jalapeno yellow tail
Kobe beef tataki style
Kobe beef new style
miso cod
squid pasta
broiled crab legs with truffle sauce (off the menu because Pete eats there all the time!)

Now for the sushi!!!

spicy tuna hand roll
toro sushi
unagi (eel)

Oh man, it was unbelievable and so was the bill!!! Anyway, if you haven't been to NOBU, it's a must and there are some recommendations. You may even run into Tom Brady and his wife Giselle like I did...btw, what was she doing there? Aren't pregnant women supposed to stay away from sushi???
