So so excited to go to get sushi with friends!! On a recent trip to go to CNPN, I was able to meet up with friends from Vancouver for dinner!  Since I wanted sushi and only know how to take the bus from UBC on broadway, Hazel recommended Suika snack bar.  This meet up was my first time, alone without Charles, and meeting Hazel and Kaiser for dinner.  I had such a great time meeting up and getting to know them better =) The food from Suika was amazing! Loved every dishes we ordered!  And I love how their service never gets slow or forget about you.  They even always walk you out the door. In fact I liked it so much, the second time on a road trip with Haley, Danny, and Freddy, I brought them here for dinner. And they loved it too =)  P.S. just sad I couldn't show them the doraemon background menu.
