vision

I don’t think “WOW” is a big enough word to express the phenomenal “makeover”, “renovation”, or re-creation of Caffe Cino, which has been completely transformed into an inviting destination!

It seemed like deja vu as we once again welcomed the new year by observing a centuries old Japanese custom - eating a bowl of Ozoni, the traditional mochi soup garnished with yuzu peel and mitsuba. Ozoni has the glutinous mochi rice cake in savory dashi (soup stock) along with mushrooms, carrots, onions, and chicken.

If you have not been to Sushi Ebisu in Tumon’s Royal Orchid Hotel, you are definitely missing something!

I had first heard about Pho Basi while listening to Ray Gibson describing his favorable dining experience there shortly after they had opened. They have only been open for about two months, so it was time to go and visit. We left the office (I'd invited Aileen to join me) as I needed to share this food experience.

It's been over a month since I had this experience and if it is no longer available, I apologize! I just had to write about it since when it happened it seemed so unreal!

It had been a while since I visited 9th Street Rotary. In fact, I had to drive by to make sure I could locate it, especially at night when it is dark in Agana. I didn’t realize it but the bike shop that used to front the curved building housing 9th Street is gone!
