1st Anniversary (and first time) at Shojin

Last night we went over to Shojin for the first time for their 1 year anniversary party. I was thinking all you can eat was going to be a buffet like Flore's brunch. Rather it was a lot of appetizer type dishes, which were mostly noodle or rice based, being served on trays by the waitresses. But they did have a drink table right in the front for easy access, one free beer! A crowd was forming around the sushi bar and then I understood what was going on. We all waited plates and chop sticks in hand until the giant sushi boat was all filled and then.. all hell broke loose. Who knew people would go so insane for veggie sushi! It was like a zombie attack or a sale at that bridal store. Ok so I missed out on the first boat but then came another and another through out the night massive amounts of sushi came out and I did eat more than I should of, like any good all you can eat attendee should do. There were also very mini desserts that came by through out the night and I think I tried them all except for the choco cake, but it's ok, I was so full by that time! I can't wait to go back and try food sitting down!
PS: pix aren't that great

Oh wow that looks fantastic! We showed up, but the crowd deterred us from sticking it out! You def have mad buffet sniping skills that spread looks fantastic!
