Relish Sushi!

It’s hard to beat Dave’s Sushi in Bozeman, Montana for a great sushi meal. This platter was created for Bob & me and our grandson, Nick (and Celine) when they were here last Thanksgiving.

Knowing how much Bob & I relish sushi at Dave’s, our Daughter #2, Laina, sent us a gift certificate for a meal there to celebrate our 60th anniversary. What a thoughtful present! Bozeman is an hour’s drive from Ennis (where we live), so we don’t go there every day – not even every week. But, we had a dental and a doctor’s appointment there yesterday, so we went to Dave’s afterward.

If we look like we’re happy,
it’s because we are!
You can count on their specials being wonderful!
Cheers!

Dave’s has a varied menu, a good wine list (that’s what I chose – a house white – while Bob had a cold and refreshing beer), great service, and a friendly, lively ambiance. We are blessed to have this restaurant in our part of the world. Laina told me she was hungry for sushi after she saw our photos, but she doesn’t have a sushi place in the Baltimore area that’s as good as this one in Bozeman!

We began with shrimp as our appetizer. It was delicious!

When my California grandkids were little, I used to take them to lunch every Wednesday while I gave their mom (who home-schooled all four of them) a break. Sushi was one of their favorite places to go… and they called those orange fish eggs “Poppies” because they popped in their mouths when they ate them. I always think of Sam, Hope, Jordan & Faith when I eat sushi rolls with “poppies” on them! This one was as yummy as it looks!

My sister, Sally, used to love to take my grandkids (her nieces & nephews) to lunch, too. It was Jordan’s choice to go to sushi. Sam always liked Burger King! (Don’t ask me why he’s looking so serious in this photo! He’s usually more like that picture upper left where he is smiling big with his sister, Hope)

Bob & I are both particularly fond of sushi. He was not a fan initially… and would order some kind of rice bowl instead (Dave’s does have other choices). However, as the years have gone by, he has become wiser! Ah yes, he loved our lunch at Dave’s yesterday as much as I did!

I had passion fruit sorbet for dessert.
Bob chose the mango.
He liked mine better!
Hah! So did I.
Here we are with Laina.

Thank you, Laina, for your very tasty,
and very thoughtful gift!


So, my WP friends, tell me,
do you relish sushi?


Do you have a good restaurant in your area
where you can go and celebrate
a special occasion like we did?

What is your favorite choice of meal?

See ya tomorrow (God willing).
Thanks for visiting JanBeek today.

    I’ve eaten sushi only once, and, if I remember correctly, it was at Dave’s Sushi. To my surprise, I liked it. I have no idea what sushi options I have back here in Missouri, but maybe one of these days I will try it again. 😊

    • I think Sashimi is the name of sushi that has cooked fish. That’s the kind we always get. Neither of us is fond of raw fish.

  6. Jan, I LOVE your family pictures. I just want to reach through this computer screen and hug all of you! Laina, great gift! I do love sushi! When I was living in the R.V. I decided to make my own sushi. Of course, California Rolls. I bought every authentic ingredient I would need, including the bamboo mat. I did try a salmon one as well. After doing this several times I became kind of sick of my own and longed to get back to a restaurant! There was a place where I lived near Little Rock, AR that had amazing sushi. Springfield and Branson both have sushi places. It’s a treat! But again, I like mine cooked! Lol! Thank you for sharing your special day and the smiles! It’s always a blessing!

    Good to know about Springfield and Branson! We’re close enough to check out those places! Thanks!

  8. What a special celebration! Happy anniversary and you can feel the love in the pictures.

  9. What a very very thoughtful gift indeed from my all-time bestest ever buddy! I’m so glad you are both mobile and capable of driving that distance to enjoy a day out with yummy food! I love you!

    • Yes, I’m grateful for our mobility, too! And I thank God daily for my two thoughtful, loving daughters. Your bouquet 💐 still is beautiful. It reminds me daily of your love and thoughtfulness, too! God bless you, DeDe!
