GG, Sushi Palace.
In celebration of a successful event, the execs decided to try out the new AYCE sushi place in Chinatown called Sushi Palace. Knowing that this was going to be an extremely calorie heavy meal, I attempted to limit my calorie intake throughout the day. I ended up eating a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast (120 calories) and snacking on some mixed nuts (200 calories).
Anyways, come dinner, I was starving. The restaurant was nice, very high class, and there were plenty of selections (maybe too many selections). There were 5 of us, 4 girls and 1 guy (who was not helpful at all by the way), and we basically went crazy. In addition to ordering a ton of sushi and sashimi, we also ordered 2 bowls of udon, chicken teriyaki, soft-shell crab, sushi pizza x3 (worst decision ever), chicken yakitori, and baked salmon. After scarfing down all the sashimi, my friend decided to order another round to really get our money's worth. We ordered 30 more salmon sashimi and 10 more white tuna. This led to...
Waiter: Each order comes with 2 pieces...so 30 is 60.
Us: We know.
Which then led to...
And with that, we ordered some shrimp, ikura nigiri (x20), and oysters.
Which then led to...
If you can't tell, this is our attempt of covering leftover sushi, oysters, and shrimp with empty shells, bones, and lettuce. That object in the sauce is a piece of unfinished sushi pizza. Not shown in this photo are the sushi we hid in the udon soup.
In conclusion, we had way too much food. As a seasoned AYCE Sushi diner, I honestly do not know how this keeps happening to me. My friends, knowing my love for sushi, expected me to take care of this. Not wanting to waste the delicious food, I tried my best. Needless to say, I stuffed myself.
For some possessed reason that I do not even recall, we decided to go to L2 for bubble tea after a short grocery break. I ordered a small, fresh taro smoothie with pearls (which was absolutely divine). Unfortunately, after two sips, my stomach surrendered. I excused myself, went to the washroom, and sat on the toilet lid for 20 minutes. Breathing was painful. Returning to my seat, I took two more sips of my bubble tea. At this point my stomach was basically screaming "WTF EMILY?" And I agreed with it. This led to washroom trip #2, where I sat on the toilet lid for another 20 minutes thinking about how I even got myself in this condition.
After leaving L2 (2 hours later), I painfully walked back to campus and to the library. Let's just say reading the COMS210 coursepack is extremely painful when your insides feel like this:
In conclusion,
1) I clearly ate over my calorie limit today (by how much? I don't even want to know).
2) Beware of AYCE sushi + bubble tea. It can be painful and most definitely unhealthy.
3) Never again.
it sounds extremely filling yet i want i want!!!!!!!!!!
