Sakura

Williston is always rumored to be getting new restaurants. I never believe it until I see it!

Kev planned a night out with one of the guys he works with and his wife. We decided to try out Sakura, a Japanese grill and sushi place. Kyan was stoked because he's been to a teppanyaki grill with Kev's parents before and had a great time.

We arrived and we were immediately seated which NEVER happens, especially here! Boys were already off the wall because they were issued a balloon animal by the hostess when we walked through the door.

Obviously he loved it!

Then the fun really began. Our chef was tons of fun and the boys were having a ball. Watching them was almost as much fun as watching the chef!

Tucker was completely mesmerized by the mad skills!

The chef likes to squirt sake and/or some kind of water or apple juice (at least Tucker said it tasted like apple juice) in everyone's mouths. The adults thought that was fun; Jaxon apparently did NOT!

The boys' favorite part:

After the "show" we settled down to eat. Man, there was a lot of food! Kev and I shared a dinner that had salad, soup, rice, noodles, veggies, chicken, steak, shrimp, and lobster all cooked right in front of us. I was stuffed and we both had leftovers for dinner the next night. The boys shared one child order of the chicken dinner and a side of fried rice. More leftovers for us. So: the atmosphere is great, the food is plentiful, the prices were a bit high for an every day kind of place, so we will be saving it for special occasions and/or when we have visitors....hint, hint ;)

We topped off the night with some yummy frozen yogurt at My Swirl. It was a super fun evening and it's always nice to meet and make new friends and put a face with a name I'm always hearing from Kev!
