Nine weeks of camp has come and gone yet again… I still can’t believe I’ve done this ten times now, and will continue until, well, Adam and I start a family of our own. I grow so attached to my girls every year, the staff becomes family, and leaving is always bittersweet. Sure, I like the week of sleeping in before my “real” job starts again, and I definitely enjoy not being so exhausted… but I don’t love that I can’t keep seeing my girls grow and change as I did all summer!
Usually the end of camp means cooler weather, but we’re in for only the 2nd 90-degree weekend since June! I usually celebrate the end of camp with a dinner out with Adam, but he had to work late last night… so I went out with my friend Kristin. She knows all too well how relieving the end of camp can be, since we met at camp 10 years ago! After a bit of light shopping, we decided to go to a local sushi place that I’d only been to once before.
**bad photo warning! The light was awful, so I had to use my flash!**
Bistro Wasabi is minutes from our house, and the one time we went, we were thrilled with the food but not that thrilled with the noise level. Last night, that was the case again. The food was amazing while the noise level and rude patrons, as well as the huge wait for our food put a bit of a damper on the night. Luckily, I’d started with this, so I didn’t care much:
I ordered one of my favorite appetizers too, agedashi tofu, and didn’t anticipate it being such a huge serving! I’m used to our more traditional place where servings are small. This was almost a full brick of tofu, lightly fried, and served in a delicious broth. Luckily Kristin helped me polish it off.
i have really enjoyed reading about your camp adventures!! that sushi looks good and the tofu is absolutely stunning.

I love Bistro Wasabi! My friends live near the Lake in the Hills location and we go there when I visit them. I live an hour away so I don’t get to visit very often. Which location did you go to?

And the sushi looks fantastic. I had sushi last night as well and it was definitely a wonderful way to start the weekend.
Hope you enjoy yours to the fullest!
