Ode to the Glory of the Restaurant Business

Ryane and I finally finished our sushi sampling at Surin of Thailand last Sunday. The last time I posted about our progress down the Nigiri menu I believe we ended with Ika (squid).

Since then we've tried...

Inari (Sweet Tofu)- If you are tofu eater, then you would love this. I personally do not care for the sweet taste but it certainly wasn't something I regretted trying.
Kani Kama (Crab Stick)- Very good, of course. This was probably my favorite but I had a feeling that it would be even before I tried it. Crab is just awesome. Period.
Katsuo (Bonito)- NOT a fan. I don't know why but it tasted like gingerbread to me. Sushi should not taste like gingerbread. Ever.
Kunsel Sake (Smoked Salmon)- Fair.
Masago (Smelt Fish Eggs)- Fair. There really wasn't much of a taste. I actually think the only reason I enjoyed eating this was because the eggs were fun to chew and pop in my mouth. Pleasant thought, huh? :)
Masuro (Tuna)- Good. No objections.
Saba (Mackeral)- I didn't really care for this one. Too fishy.
Sake (Salmon)- Fair. I mean, I like salmon, but I generally like it best in sushi when there are other components and sauces that help balance out the fishy taste of it.
Tai (Red Snapper)- Eh, it was alright.
Tako (Octopus)- The taste was fine, but I struggled with chewing it because all it is, is simply part of a giant octopus tentacle.
Takwon (Pickled Daikon)- Two thumbs DOWN.
Unagi (Fresh Water Eel)- Yuuuum.
Wakame (Seasoned Seaweed)- Yuuuum.
Zuwai Ganu (Snow Crab Salad)- And once again, Yuuuum.

Talk about luck on the last three. All of them were absolutely delicious. AND as a consolation prize Surin's manager gave us coconut ice cream on the house for being the FIRST customers to eat all of the Nigiri menu items.

Now it's time to explain why I gave this post it's title.

As Ryane and I were eating this particular Sunday, our server, Jenn, told us that the previous Thursday during Midnight Sushi an eighteen-year-old girl entered the restaurant completely hammered. As you can probably imagine, or even predict, she stumbled into the dining area and collapsed on top of her table. Okay. She then proceeded to CLIMB on top of it (the table. yes, the table), pull her pants down (yes, the pair that she was wearing), and attempt to PEE (as in... URINATE). Luckily someone pulled her down in time before she actually took the leak, but still, SHE TRIED TO PEE ON HER TABLE.

Poor Jenn. At least we can walk away with some good stories.
