I had an incredible time with my boyfriend this past weekend! Coming back to work (aka reality) was more painful and torturous than usual...
After spending some quality time at Santa Anita Park, we actually went to the gym in Pasadena together and worked out for a bit. I know it sounds so dorky, but I'm glad that now we get to spend more time together, doing stuff we both like to do :) (He's not the best person to take to my shopping regime) Gym was unsurprisingly empty on Saturday evening, and it was so nice to actually have my own space in the locker room. I didn't had to fight for the shower or hair dryers! This is almost unheard of at the Santa Monica location :)
Anyways, after some good workout, we head out to this Japanese restaurant called "Itacho." My boyfriend purchased a groupon-equivalent coupon at this restaurant a while ago, but it took us almost a year to come because of mainly the location. It's not too convenient from Pasadena (where we used to live) or West LA (where we currently live). However, we were pleasantly surprised how good this restaurant was! West LA offers many Japanese restaurants, but as Japanese, we're both picky about our food. Quite frankly, everything we see at West LA is overpriced for the quality it offers (or just bad food, no offense). So we were thrilled to eat deliciously prepared sushi, with very fresh fish and rice was at perfect temperature/texture. Other dishes besides sushi were pretty decent too. As an Izakaya-style restaurant, we wished if they had a bit more selections and varieties of food, but everything they offered was great and customer service was even better! Best of all, it wasn't fortune to eat these sushi! Too bad, it's a bit far...
