NYC FOODIE BIRTHDAY LUNCH OF THE YEAR: SUSHIDEN

Turning 30 is a bit of a milestone in one's life, and for yours truly, I needed a truly magical lunch to celebrate! This lunch, sponsored by an amazing sister, the NYC Foodette, Briana Beckerman, came at Sushiden in Midtown. It was a truly extraordinary meal!

We sat at the sushi bar and told sushi chef Nozumu Abe to serve us whatever sushi he wanted. We eat Everything! Well, 21 pieces later, a few tears of joy, and some chills from some orgasmic culinary bites, Sushiden provided a phenomenal, mind-blowing meal. And here we go...

This Fluke was no fluke-good stuff!

And hola to you to amazing Ikura, I think you, me, and that sea urchin should have a threesome in the ocean one day, if you are open to it. You already tickled my taste buds, so, lets give it a go.

I know you aren't Jewish, but not only do I not practice any religion, even if I did, when you are in love, nothing really else matters.
