Oishi Sushi California & Salmon Rolls
Oishi Sushi Tempura Shrimp

We ate at Oishi Sushi for dinner and had two different sushi rolls along with Udon noodles and tempura shrimp.

The miso soup that came before the meal was pretty tasty, and it was start to the dinner.

The California rolls were like usual California rolls, but they were delicious, especially with the fresh avocado taste.

The salmon roll was just like the California roll except with salmon on top, and I really enjoyed those, as well.

It would have been nice to have more Udon noodles in the Udon noodle soup, but the noodles tasted good to me, and they had a good texture. However, my boyfriend thought it was disgusting because the soup was a little on the sweet side, and it tasted "like a bowl of hot salad dressing" to him.

I ordered the Udon noodles with three tempura shrimp, and they were delicious. They were nice, crispy, and light. I don't know what the sauce was that came on the side, but that was sweet and super tasty, as well.

Update: Unfortunately, they are now closed due to a fire. 😥

Trader Ming's Cha Siu Bao Chinese Pork Buns from Trader Joe's
Plate of Trader Ming's Cha Siu Bao Chinese Pork Buns from Trader Joe's

I tried some Chinese Pork Buns from Trader Joe's as a late night snack.

I have never had Chinese pork buns before so I decided to try these. I sometimes don't like eating foods in the middle of other food (if that makes any sense), and I think that was the case here.

I liked eating the outer bready part which was soft and just a little sweet, but the pork on the inside was too sweet for me, and I did not like the taste of the sweet pork with the outer bun. This was similar to Korean red bean buns, and I don't like the sweet filling inside those, either. However, my boyfriend didn't mind the filling and thought they tasted pretty good. For the remaining pork buns, I mainly ate the outer part, while my boyfriend ate the inner pork parts.

KFC Popcorn Chicken

I had some popcorn chicken from KFC. The chicken tasted pretty good and had a nice texture. It was soft and a little crispy on the outside, and it wasn't too salty. It was probably the best popcorn chicken I've had.

I had the chicken with KFC's honey mustard. It isn't as thick as others I have had, which I liked, and it tasted delicious. KFC's honey mustard is probably my favorite honey mustard, as well.
