Sushi for Simone

We've never had a problem with Simone trying and liking all kinds of different foods, so on Saturday night we decided to bring her with us for Japanese food for the first time. She ate her entire meal with her chopsticks, and liked it so much that she asked us if "we could eat with chopsticks more often." lol!
Daddy was jealous of her bento box, and happy that she seemed to like Japanese food as much as he does.
She most enjoyed the rice and chicken. Not as big a fan of the tempura, but we were proud of her for trying everything -- even the miso soup.
We were reluctant to give her the sushi rolls, but she did enjoy a cucumber roll.
Our udon noodles were a little difficult for her, but she did love picking the vegetables out of that dish.
We had a great meal and will definitely be back. So far Japanese has proven one of Simone's favorites, and there's something to be said for any meal that keeps Simone sitting still and engaged the entire time even without the promise of ice cream at the end!
