The hidden delights of thindi
If there's anything that comes close to the delights of a wedding feast, it has to be the thindi, savoury and sweet snacks, that are served as light refreshments between the main events at a wedding.
Nothing said "family wedding" like the arrival, at my grandparents' home, of tins, trays, bags, baskets and boxes of thindi.
Typically, there would be the traditional sweet favourites like kodli kajjaya, also known as baduva or kann kajjaya, (deep fried doughnut shaped fritters made from rice flour, wheat flour and jaggery), chicle undé (balls of ground puffed rice, coconut, jaggery, and sesame, encased in a crisp batter), and chirotis.
To balance all that sweetness, would be chakkulis (deep fried savoury crisps made from a rice and lentil dough), spicy cashew nuts, potato and banana chips, and large quantities of chow-chow (a mixture made up of of crisp chickpea batter drops and threads, mixed with peanuts, curry leaves and split, fried chickpeas).
That was just the beginning. Then would come the homemade goodies from relatives and friends. Cousins, aunts, great- aunts and school friends churned up a sweet tsunami of cakes, biscuits, burfis, halvas, macaroons, chocolate truffles and peppermints. Pink and white coconut toffee and marshmallows, and jujubes in the prettiest shades of red, green and yellow.
Cooking for Grandma
Well, here I am at 100 posts! The subject of this one has never been in doubt.
While I have shared some thoughts in the past few years about how my maternal grandmother indulged and encouraged my love of cooking, I think this is the perfect time to reflect on some memories of her, away from her busy kitchen.
By the time I really became aware of my grandmother, Balia Mama, (Big Mama, as a cheeky older cousin had decided to address her, and we all followed suit) years of ill health had taken a toll on her physically. For all that delicious food she cooked to feed the hearty appetites of the extended family, she hardly seemed to eat anything herself at all. A piece of unbuttered toast and a cup of a nutritional drink like Sanatogen or Horlick's. A cup of milky coffee with a Marie biscuit or two. The smallest portion of soup in the evenings. That seemed to be her diet.
It always made me a little sad to see her eating so frugally, while around her, the vast quantities of food she had prepared so lovingly, were polished off with great gusto. And yet, she was up the earliest in the household, on her feet all morning, with brief breaks to sit down and read the papers, or to sip some tea. She refused to sleep in the afternoons, sitting, instead, in a straight backed chair near the kitchen, catnapping a little before setting about preparing something for tea.
Get cooking for Kail Podh: chop-chop!
A year has flown by, and Kail Podh is here again.
What's on the menu in my home? Well, the classic duo of pandi curry and kadambuttu has made way for something just a little lighter this time.
This delicious recipe for pork chops was shared by a friend. It doesn't use the more traditional dark roasted spices used in pandi curry. It relies, instead, on the freshness of herbs along with just enough heat and spice to make it a year-round favourite.
Serve up with rice, kadambuttu or bread. This time I've chosen some lovely locally grown potatoes to accompany the chops.
Button up!
Do you think of button mushrooms as "the boring ones"? Passing by the mushroom display at the farmers' market in Vancouver, and admiring the cases of mushrooms – enoki, morel, oyster, shiitake, chantrelle, pine, lion's mane, and so many more, I know how spoilt for choice I am.
I'm also reminded that I'm guilty, all too often, of passing over those little white button mushrooms in favour of other more exotic choices. I guess I have come to think of them as a little boring. They're cheap and plentiful, and, as a result, often end up being used somewhat indifferently. It's time to refresh my appreciation for the good old button!
Button mushrooms are something I associate with growing up in India, and it got me thinking of recipes, dating back to a time when they were generally considered a bit of a fancy ingredient. Of course, if the family happened to be in Coorg at the right time of year, we'd get to enjoy the wonderful wild mushrooms in season. Otherwise, living in a city, or tucked away in a small cantonment town, we were glad enough to have any fresh mushrooms at all.
Berry cool ! Raspberry gazpacho
It's been a bit quiet on the kitchen front lately. Temperatures have been above average for much of the month, and looking at the carpets of leaves that have shrivelled and fallen from the trees, it could almost be a picture of autumn. But there's definitely no nip in the air!
It's been a time for salads and light meals that don't involve spending too much time around a hot stove, unless it's a summer barbecue.
Earlier this month, we were back at Collin Regehr's farm, to collect some of his outstanding raspberry crop. As planned he has expanded his acreage, and we arrived there to find his family and friends at work, gathering the delicate berries before they wilted in the heat.
Returning home from the Fraser Valley with a haul of the best raspberries around, this was the perfect opportunity to try a cool raspberry gazpacho recipe from "Modernist Cuisine at Home".

For one NH soldier returning from Afghanistan, a special greeting
Three-month-old Declan, and mom Rebecca, from Concord, are greet dad Derek, as the 237th Military Police returns from Afghanistan to New Hampshire at the Army Aviation Support Facility on Thursday in Concord. (Thomas Roy/Union Leader)
Army National Guard Spc. Derek Dutcher witnessed, thanks to the Internet, his wife giving birth about three months ago while he was stationed more than 6,000 miles away. But nothing compared with hugging his son, Declan, for the first time Thursday.
His wife, Rebecca, said their son served as a reminder of Derek during the months her husband was away.
Dutcher was among 110 returning soldiers of the 237th Military Police Company, deployed to Afghanistan for nine months and returning home Thursday. The company reported no injuries or deaths. (See related story, Page

The secrets behind Australia's most enduring architecture
Open-plan living and the blurring of the inside and outside are design styles that have changed the way we live in Australia. These ideas, once radical concepts, found their origins in the early designs of Australian architects Harry Seidler and Robin Boyd, as Janne Ryan and Fenella Kernebone write.
While nearly every house now built or renovated in Australia features 'open-plan living', this concept was new in Australia until the mid-20th century. It wasn't until Melbourne-based Robin Boyd's 1958 family home and Sydney-based Harry Seidler's Rose Seidler House were built that this new way of living found traction in Australia.
There's blurriness between the interior of the house and the landscape. They are all the one thing within this urban shell.Shelley Penn, architect
Both these houses changed and shaped us as a culture, according to architects Shelley Penn and James Staughton, because of their 'endurance'.
Penn, former president of the Australian Institute of Architects [AIA], says that even though a building will be of its time, in terms of technology and expression, it becomes enduring when it 'goes beyond style and is done with such quality [and] consideration that it's still relevant, despite changing values 25 years or beyond'.
'Those [elements] are all part of the quality of a place,' Penn says. 'It's not just that it stands up and continues and so on, but it's beautiful, it's resonant, it's lovely to be in and it's responsive to its environment.'
Staughton recently worked as a jurist for the 2014 Victorian AIA Awards, which include an Enduring Architecture Award. 'When the dust has settled 25 years or more later, to look back after the fads of that time have passed, buildings which make great contributions become a lot clearer,' he says.
Staughton and Penn point to Rose Seidler House, Boyd's Walsh St House, Glenn Murcutt's Magney House, McGlashan Everist's Heide II, Peter McIntyre's A-Frame House and Eddie Oribin's Oribin House and Studio, as examples of enduring Australian architecture. Of these houses, the Walsh St House, Magney House and Oribin House and Studio, have won AIA Enduring Awards, while Rose Seidler House won the 1951 NSW AIA Sulman Medal.
Staughton describes these buildings as 'like characters in our cultural landscape' in that 'they've pioneered the way in which we live and they've become therefore representative of how we see ourselves and what we want to be'.
Staughton, describing McIntyre's A-Frame House, says: 'It's literally an A-frame [amongst] the trees, and its structure is almost like as if it were a tree in that it has a central trunk and those parts that extend outwards. It's quite an interesting building to be in from that point of view, because it moves much more than normal buildings.'
Both Staughton and Penn agree on enduring quality of Boyd's Walsh St House, also known as Boyd House II. It was designed in 1958 for the Boyd family, who moved in a year later.
Drawing a comparison between Boyd House II and Rose Seidler House, Penn says both share an optimism that reflected post-WWII attitudes: 'Anything was possible and this brave new world was coming.'
'The Boyd house is highly site responsive,' Penn explains. 'There's blurriness between the interior of the house and the landscape. They are all the one thing within this urban shell.'
'The Rose Seidler house is more an object in the modernist sense of an object that sits on a slight rise in a beautiful estate. But there's certainly a strong relationship [between the two houses] in terms of the idea of an open plan and a relationship to landscape.'
The '50s-era trends of open plan living and the blurring of the inside and outside mirrored what was happening in many places, particularly California, with work by designers such as Ray and Charles Eames.
'McGlashan Everist's Heide II house, which was designed as a house and a gallery, is a good example of building where the landscape is a key element, and included large areas of glass in-between,' says Staughton.
'The landscape is literally brought into the experience of the house in a very articulate and beautifully controlled way. It's got a large cultural tradition as well as architectural tradition.'
Glenn Murcutt's Magney House, also known as the Bingie Bingie House, became one of his most photographed houses and is a great example of Murcutt's philosophy of touching the earth lightly.
'The clients for this house used to go to that site and camp there, and they actually briefed Murcutt, saying they wanted something almost like camping,' Penn says. 'It's beautifully conceived [and] detailed exceptionally well to withstand the elements [and have] a very minimal impact on the actual landscape.'
Penn describes Eddie Oribin's house and studio in Cairns, built between 1956 and 1958 for his family, as 'coming from a heritage of organic architecture'.
'You can see a relationship with US architect Frank Lloyd Wright's buildings in things like lots of quite heavy timber work and very deep eaves, but it's really about the expression of the form, and the roof form is extremely important. It's interesting because it is very innovative.'
By Design looks at the places and things we imagine, build, use and occupy, explaining how creative ideas take tangible form through the design process.

Thank you Fenella for an interesting program. We may like a building from the outside as an " art object " e.g. the Rose Seidler House of 1948. But the planning may be less than perfect. I suggest that Harry Seidler got it wrong by not turning the whole plan clockwise 90 degrees to allow the living and dining and kitchen to all face north. Next, relocate the ramp to the east side so that visitors cannot enter the north facing deck and catch one by surprise !
Other " art object " houses I would include are the butterfly house at Dromana [ Chancellor and Patrick arch 1955 ], Round House, Frankston [ Roy Grounds arch ], Single Pole House, Great Ocean Rd, [ Frank Dixon engineer 1975 ]
Best wishes,

Marine Writes letter To Diane Feinstein: "I Will Not Be Disarmed!"Submitted by emalvini on Thu, 01/03/2013 - 23:30
Marine Writes letter To Diane Feinstein: "I Will Not Be Disarmed!"
1/03/13 | by S.H. Blannelberry
A letter written by an 8-year Marine veteran to U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein, the architect of the comprehensive 2013 Assault Weapons Ban, has gone viral.
The author of the letter, Cpl. Joshua Boston who was deployed to Afghanistan between 2004-05, told CNN that he opposes gun registration because it will lead to confiscation. Moreover, that passing more gun control laws will only serve to disarm law-abiding citizens, leaving them defenseless.
"I own the guns I own because I acknowledge mankind's shortcomings instead of pretending like they don't exist. There are evil men in this world and there just may be a time when I need to do the unthinkable to protect me or my family," Boston said.
Here is the letter Boston wrote, courtesy of CNN's iReport:

Carlisle road grinds to halt in three-hour stand-off
Last updated at 12:50, Tuesday, 08 July 2014
A three-hour stand-off on one of Carlisle's busiest roads brought the city to a grinding halt.
Motorists were left gridlocked for hours after police closed Castle Way at about 4.10pm on Monday to deal with the incident.
Officers had been called to the Irishgate Bridge – the pedestrian walk way over the road – to reports over concerns for the welfare of a woman.
It is understood that she was threatening to jump from the bridge.
Eyewitnesses described the woman, dressed in a turquoise hooded jumper, blue trousers and white trainers, as being sat on one of the bridge supports above Castle Way.
Two fire engines, a fire service response car, two police vans and an ambulance were all at the scene, as police closed the road between the Dalston Road junction and Hardwicke Circus roundabout. With vehicles diverted along Junction Street and through the city centre, it left motorists stuck in traffic for hours.
It also had a knock-on effect on traffic trying to leave Sainsbury's, with some people reportedly stuck for up to an hour in the supermarket car park.
Bystanders gathered at the roadside as the drama unfolded.
One man, who did not want to be named, told the News & Star: "I was waiting for a bus [when it happened].
"They have been talking to her for about an hour already.
"They have given her a few cigarettes – I saw her smoking. It is an old-fashioned negotiation."
However, many social media users were less sympathetic, sparking arguments as some people pitied the woman while others labelled her actions thoughtless.
Cumbria Police are only releasing limited details about the incident, but have confirmed that they brought it to an end almost three hours later.
The woman was subsequently taken to the city's Cumberland Infirmary.
A spokeswoman for Cumbria Police said: "The woman was not injured, and there were no suspicious circumstances."
The road was fully reopened at about 7pm, but there were delays in Carlisle for some time afterwards.

Scandal Review: Who Can You Trust?by Miranda Wicker at . Comments
Scandal did the time warp this week, propelling the story 10 months from the end of the previous episode. Olivia's hair is straight and she's wading back into the dating pool. And the regular pool. She also looks fantastic for having not slept at all. Maybe it's the coffee. Or the red wine.
Fitz, however, is deteriorating under the weight of the world that rests on his shoulders without his trusty sidekicks to help him shoulder the load.
Yes, "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot" was another sold episode of this breakout hit. One that, while a little sleepy at times, had a jaw-dropping, and creepy, ending. WTF, indeed, Scott Foley!
Poor David Rosen. The guy cannot catch a break. First he loses the Lindsey Dwyer case. Then he's made to look foolish in front of the Grand Jury and loses his job. And then he can't find a job at any law firm in D.C. and decides to build his own. But the clients don't come. So he ends up teaching civics and government classes.
And then he winds up with a dead girl in his bed and calls Olivia Pope for help.
Olivia and the team decide to move the body, with David's approval, and Huck teaches Quinn about clean-up, calling her a "natural" at stabbing corpses.
Sidenote: I'm not alone in thinking an interoffice romance between those two could be interesting, am I? Quck? Hinn? Quick? Okay, I'll stop.
If I have one criticism of Scandal over the past few weeks, it's that it got bogged down in the election rigging and everyone trying to cover their own tails. This was sort of a return to the case-of-the-week format. Sort of.
As it turns out, the dead girl in David Rosen's bed was actually after information on Defiance. Defiance will not die.
After talking his own way out of his own office while Harrison watched with his jaw on the floor, and after (rightfully) accusing Olivia of everything bad that has ever happened to him, David finds the dead girl's jump drive and takes it to Olivia. On it they find highly classified information that no civilian should have in his or her possession and now David absolutely needs Olivia's help if he wants to stay alive and out of prison.
Captain James Ballard, Olivia's new love interest, played by Scott Foley, had been in contact with the dead girl in David's apartment the day she died. His story is that she had been trying to sell him secrets. Top secret secrets. But after that scene in his living room at the end of the episode, I believe exactly nothing that he says.
He has cameras inside Olivia's apartment and who knows how long they've been there.
I should have put it together faster: them meeting in the coffee shop followed by the fact that he was the person she had to visit with at the Pentagon. His rather cocky insistence that they go out to dinner. There were warning signs that their chance encounters weren't so random. But I think I want Olivia to find happiness away from Fitz so badly that I was too eager for this to be someone to do that to stop and see the red flags that he's creepy.
And that TV monitor spy-cam setup he has is creepy. And intriguing. In true Scandal fashion, I have lots of questions.
I want to know his connection to Defiance. Did he kill Wendy or know who does? Is there someone in the Pentagon who suspects something happened with the election? Is this guy going rogue? Why the fascination with Olivia? Is he the mole connected to the White House?
Yes, there's a mole in the White House.
Fitz is growing increasingly paranoid about who he can trust after Verna's deathbed reveal. He knows Mellie and Cyrus enough to know that they're both animals who will stop at almost nothing to get whatever it is they want. His anger and distrust of them isn't misdirected or misguided at all.
For that matter, his anger and feelings of betrayal that are directed at Olivia aren't misguided either. Of the three of them, her betrayal hurts most, which is why their server-room sex and the following conversation was so hard to watch.
These two have certainly had their steamy moments. Tonight just felt angry, without the passion that usually causes me to want these two to be together against all the odds. (I'm not saying they weren't on fire, but angry sex is not as hot as Oval Office sex, right?)
But even the angsty tryst in the server room was more inspired than Fitz and Mellie in the shower. Maybe it was all the scotch.
Time jumps are always risky in television shows. They're an effective way to speed along a story that seems to be dragging, and Defiance and the election scandal were certainly dragging along. While we're not beyond that story by any means, at least now there are new avenues being opened up. There are new places for these characters to go and new stories to be told.
For instance, what will happen when Huck finds out about the cameras in Olivia's apartment?
What did you think of "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot"? What do you think of Captain James Ballard? Do you think the time jump worked? Be sure to check out the Scandal quotes page where you can rate the existing quotes and add your favorites!

OMG!! Here I was getting all so happy and tingly in seeing Olivia with a possible new (handsome) love interest and WHAM! he has her under surveillance!! This does not look good!!! Could he be the mole??!! And Fitz, what's the hell is his problem??!! Ok, I get it! He is feeling betrayed and all that but turning to Mellie and listening to her and eating all the crap she is feeding him. Then treating the only two persons who have always had his back with disdain and contempt. You better wake up soon Fitz and toss the scotch far away from you while you're at it!
No on the Huck+Quinn! No, no, NO!
Oh my goodness what an episode! First off the Captain knows something about Olivia and Associates and that is why he is watching her, I was not sure but it seemed like he had cameras in her office as well (i could be wrong). Plus the scene with Fitz drinking in the oval office then them showing the camera, he is def being watched too. What the Heck is wrong with Mellie, hate her more this week than ever before....but its obvious she is tired of sharing Fitz and wants him to trust and turn to her alone, hence why she betrayed Cyrus. But it almost seems as if she is trying to sabotage Fitz himself by giving him that advice in the car about him being President and always right. My my cant wait for Huck to find those cameras.
WTF Scott Foley indeed! I was right there with you - totally wanting him to be a FAB love interest for Olivia, but that end reveal was pegging the "creepy" scale - way in the red! I am wondering how long he has had her under surveillance? Does he know about her history with Fitz? Is he the mole? So many questions! At some point you know he's gonna show up on Huck's radar - and then all hell is gonna break loose! Huck is nothing if not uber-protective of Olivia! I kind of felt bad for Cyrus. And even a little bit for Mellie, although I was puzzled as to why she didn't place the blame for this whole thing on Hollis Doyle instead of Cyrus. Shower sex - that was sad. If Mellie knew what was good for the president and the country she would somehow get Olivia back in his life. As long as he's apart from Olivia it seems he's just a sad, alcoholic shell of a man!
UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! WHY WHY WHY?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Is this guy truly as stupid as he is turning out to be?! Seriously? I fell in love with this show until the last 2 episodes. Fitz finds out the truth about the election them turns on everyone EXCEPT Mellie? HUH?!?!?!?! He's so stupid and naive that all of a sudden he is trusting all the shit Mellie is shoveling and turning his back on the 2 people that have truly tried to protect him all along... oh, and to make it all the better, he basically turns Olivia into a whore! Every other aspect of the show makes sense, but if this man is that naive and stupid, he never should have been president to begin with. Yea, I get he is hurt over the betrayal, but if he TRULY loved Olivia as "the love of his life," he would have heard her out over Mellie. DO NOT like or trust the Scott Foley character one bit! I'm waiting for Olivia to suddenly disappear, her team freaking out, and the pan of the camera to Olivia tied up in some secret room hidden somewhere...

Around the World in a 30 foot Sailboat
OPEN HOUSE, All are invited!
September 19, 2014
Refreshments at 12:15
Presentation at 1:00
Climb aboard for an exciting sea voyage which took over three years to complete. This 1970's real-life adventure on rough and tranquil waters is presented through photographs and detailed maps which chart and describe the world's geography and divergent populations.  Along the way we see and feel the drama of the captain and first mate as they share their experiences in both sometimes life threatening situations and the mundane aspects of living on a small sailboat for over 1,000 days.
Scott Kuhner grew up in Westport, CT where, as a youngster, he learned to sail. Scott, a successful  businessman, convinced his young wife, Kitty, to quit their jobs and sail around the world. This true life story by two new Lifetime Learner members reviews their exciting and interesting adventure. Their professional presentation, with pictures and detailed maps, will be personally narrated by them during this extended 1½ hour Lunch & Learn presentation.
Do you have a particular skill, avocation, hobby, deep interest in some area? Do you enjoy sharing your knowledge and enthusiasm? As a facilitator, you would share and learn with your peers. To propose a course, call 857-3330 and leave a message, or send an email

DEFINITION of 'Zero-Volatility Spread - Z-spread'
The constant spread that will make the price of a security equal to the present value of its cash flows when added to the yield at each point on the spot rate Treasury curve where a cash flow is received . In other words, each cash flow is discounted at the appropriate Treasury spot rate plus the Z-spread.
The Z-spread is also known as a "static spread".
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Zero-Volatility Spread - Z-spread'
A Z-spread calculation is different than a nominal spread calculation. A nominal spread calculation uses one point on the Treasury yield curve (not the spot rate Treasury yield curve) to determine the spread at a single point that will equal the present value of the security's cash flows to its price.
Spot RateThe price that is quoted for immediate settlement on a commodity, ...
Yield CurveA line that plots the interest rates, at a set point in time, ...

Comet Lander Sends Photos and Data
I'm sure you've been following the news about the rather incredible comet lander, Rosetta, launched 10 years ago by the European Space Agency, which successfully landed on the comet a couple of days ago. Now pictures and data are coming in. If the crafts solar cells are adequately positioned (the craft is in the shadow of a cliff) the craft will operate for months. Most cool. Video from USA Today.

Kumquat Cheesecake
I found this recipe on a forum somewhere while looking for a nut-free recipe for raw cheesecake. It could easily be made nut-free, all you have to do is either leave the crust out, or make your own nut-free crust! The filling has NO nuts!!!
Peanut Better
A replacement for peanut butter that's so yummy!
Vegetable Tortillas
I wanted a lighter tortilla that wasn't full of buckwheat and wasn't made entirely out of flax seeds… and I had leftover veggies from making noodles so I used them up and these came out nicely!
Warm Caribean fruit
all the fruits in this taste warm as if picked from the plant in a warm caribean sun. the texture is beautiufl, its somewhere between pudding and a smoothie and it leaves you satisfied. eat with a spoon as you want to leave some texture in there.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- A judge set bond today for a Fort Myers woman who allegedly kidnapped her daughter during a supervised visit, and took off toward Georgia.
Christine Riemer is being held on family offense charges for interfering with the custody of a minor.
Riemer is facing $200,000 bond, despite her argument that she's not a flight risk, or a danger to the community. The 46-year-old was booked in to the Lee County jail Monday, after spending more than two weeks in a North Florida jail. She's accused of kidnapping her 7-year-old daughter Crystal on October 8th, while the two were meeting at Lutheran Services.
Riemer was arrested later that night, just south of the Georgia border. This morning, the judge read off pending charges against Riemer. She argued the charges read were not accurate. She asked for a more managable bond, and explained she has responsibilites to attend to at home.
"Your Honor, I have some property, worst case scenario, I have property I have to take care of. There's a service dog involved, there's a cat, and my daughter's property. I'm not a flight risk. I have made it to court every time I have court," said Riemer.
That property Riemer's referring to is a house on Kurtz Street. It had been condemned and found without running water. When police raided the home, they say it smelled of feline urine and dog feces, with bags of garbage in the kitchen area. Her daughter, Crystal, was found unclothed and eating catfood spread throughout the home. Crystal is now back with her foster parents while Christine remains in jail on $200,000 bond.
The judge did revoke bond for other pending charges. Riemer's due back in court for her arraignment on November 25th.

Looking for the Best Americanized Sushi in LA!
- cookieyumyum Dec 15, 2007 07:28 AM
Hi All!
After my last dinner taking out-of-towners to sushi.....I realize... I need help.
They are looking for super crazy rolls and I don't know where to go!
So I'm looking for some Americanized Sushi recs around town. Ones that have a loooonnnng list of wacky rolls. And is good quality and yummy fresh. I want my guests to be super happy, but I want to be super happy too! Is this possible?
Hollywood, Burbank, Glendale, West LA, Santa Monica....My sweetiepie works on the west side, and I work in Burbank. Sucker for long-distance relationships...
Atmosphere: Not scary to an out-of-towner
Oh and if it doesn't break the bank, that would be a plus too! Thanks for all help!
re: trolley
Great advice. 100% spot on.
Koi, Katsuya and Geisha House are good for this sort of thing. I give Katsuya the nod for having the better food out of the three. Hamasaku really does have a super long list of crazy rolls. Probably the longest one I've ever seen!
re: Debbie W
Second this sincerely.
If you are in the mood for all you can eat, try Midori Sushi in Studio City. It's about $25/person. The have 10+ different rolls for you to try. My favorite one is the "Family Roll" (if I remember the name right). It was topped with seared albacore with spicy tuna filling and drizzle with ponzu sauce. Yum yum yum~~~~
Midori Sushi
11622 Ventura Blvd.
Studio City, CA 91604
(818) 623-7888
Even though they don't have a long list of rolls, Tokyo Table has a lot of modernized Japanese dishes that are fun to eat (and they probably have the wackiest sushi dish of all... a baked "sushi pizza" which is surprisingly good when I tried it)
Geisha House in Hollywood and Tengu in Westwood/Santa Monica and K-Zo in Culver City are also appropriate fits for those looking for a lot of rolly sushi.
re: AquaW
oooo thanks for all the great recs so far! wow sushi pizza! hehe that sorta scares me but you never know....
And Trolley, it doesn't have to be Yamashiro in appearance, but I guess no really old strip mall sushi joints with 2 tables.
ME personally am fine with where ever, as long as its good food. Just thinking of my out-of-towners who are just used to eating sushi at the brand new restaurant at their local mall.
re: SauceSupreme
Scratch that:
Not the Sushi Roku on 3rd Street. But I've also been to the one in Santa Monica and the one in Pasadena (are there others?) so those are fine.
The nice thing about those locations are that they make for a fun evening out regardless. Santa Monica and Old Pas are great for strolling, window shopping, ducking into shops for coffee or ice cream, etc.
re: PrettyPlaty
I'll second this rec. It is what it is. I think the mushroom appetizer is pretty good, and the rolls aren't bad.
re: PrettyPlaty
This is a fun place. In addition to the variety of rolls, they'll make any combo roll you can imagine. Fun and tasty rolls is their thing. Enjoy!
re: PrettyPlaty
Quadruple this rec. When I read the original post, California Roll Factory was the first thing to come to mind.
Blue Fish in Montrose has all kinda crazy rolls but good fresh sushi as well. It's a few doors down form Zeke's
In West Hollywood try:
Ari Ya Sushi
8730 Santa Monica Boulevard.
West Hollywood, CA 90069.
They don't have a list of wacky rolls, just excellent sushi for the price. I've been going there for several years (formerly Murakami) - nice people, great atmosphere, real down to earth, indoor and patio seating. Often you'll find a A list celeb sitting at the sushi bar. Recommendations: Murakami roll, crab & scallop spring roll, and their sushi is super fresh.
I would stay away from Katsuya in Hollywood - expensive and valet is $15 with validation! Snobby, food is average. If you are going to pay that much then you are better off going Matsuhisa in Beverly Hills.
re: Sam L.
Sorry, in my mind, "super crazy rolls" are horrific in the first place...so I picked the one with the biggest, insanest, gooeyest rolls I could think of.
i second the motion for california sushi roll factory in west LA! with dozens of customer-created rolls plastered to the wall, and you can do it yourself too. for what it's worth, i still eat there when i'm trying not to take myself too seriously, kind of like when i go to joe's crab shack hahah...
Kaya Sushi in Marina Del Rey has a super long list of rolls. Some things are better than others, but overall it's pretty good.
re: Juji
I second Kaya Sushi. My husband and I went there last week and had several really good rolls. I recommend the Low-Carb Rolls (think no rice), specifically the Summer Roll, Fall Roll and Winter Roll. Their sushi is OK, but I much prefer Mia Sushi in Eagle Rock (which has several good rolls as well).

Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup
|Grade 1
£550,000 added,
5yo plus,
3m 2f 110y, Class 1
|Friday 13th March 2015
Nov 19 Trainer Alan King believes that Smad Place has the potential to be a challenger for glory in the 2015 Cheltenham Gold Cup.
King told reporters: "If I've got a horse that could run in a Gold Cup, it has to be Smad Place. I feel he has strengthened up a lot this season and given the impression that there could well be more improvement to come.
"He did everything but win (at the Festival) last season and was just run out of it at the line.
"Competing off his current mark (155), he would need to run well to earn a place in any Gold Cup field, but if we have a Gold Cup horse in the yard, he is the one.
"He's been placed on each of the three occasions he's been to the Festival."
RaceBets.com - Enjoy racing online
Nov 13 Champagne Fever won the Clonmel Oil Chase really well from Alderwood on November 13 to become joint antepost favourite.
David Bridgwater is gearing The Giant Bolster's next campaign around a fourth successive crack at the Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup next March.
The bet365 Charlie Hall Chase at Wetherby on November 1 is a possible starting point, with the Betfair Chase at Haydock on November 22 another potential objective.
Bridgwater said: "He's absolutely great. He's come back in older and more mature and seems to be doing everything right.
"He never used to inspire as being a good horse at home, but now at home he looks a good horse every day of the week.
"If he's straight and well, he'll go for the Charlie Hall, which is always a good starting point.
"But if he's not, he'll go straight to Haydock for the big one.
"He always seems to runs poorly up to the main day (Gold Cup), but that's the nature of the beast.
"Then again, he's that sort of horse that it wouldn't surprise me if he won a good one on the way.
"Whatever we do, everything will be built around next March."
His fourth win on the trot saw the Jonjo O'Neill-trained chaser rise to the top of the 2015 Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup market.
Jockey Tony McCoy said: "I would never have said he was a Gold Cup contender before, but he has beaten all of them today convincingly," he said.
"In form this horse will be the best chaser we see all year. It is not impossible for him to win the Gold Cup."
A comfortable victory for Carlingford Lough at the Punchestown Festival saw the eight-year-old earn quotes of 25-1 with Paddy Power for the 2015 Betfred Cheltenham Gold Cup.
"He's always been a consistent horse and Tony gave him a brilliant ride," said Kiely. "He deserves a holiday now and we'll start him off in conditions races in the autumn and see what happens.
"He's been a very easy horse to train and this was perfect ground for him. There was a lovely cover of grass. He likes to come from behind."
A P McCoy added: "I think in fairness to John Kiely, he did everything because he's been on the go since Galway. It is great training to be able to keep a horse going at the top level.
"He seemed to handle the better ground today. He jumped well today, if a little bit left at times but the trainer really deserves all the credit.
"His owner (J P McManus) told me about a year and a half ago that he would win the Galway Plate. He's got more knowledge than most of us.
"He's done nothing but improve. His jumping has improved and that has helped him to improve. John Kiely deserves all the credit."
Winning owner J P McManus commented: "He hasn't missed a dance all season and to see how he was today is a credit to John Kiely and all his team.
"A P gave him the perfect ride. I'm sure he wouldn't have minded if they had gone a stride faster but he is a horse you have to hang on to for a while. Ruby (Walsh, second on Ballycasey) gave him something to aim at and thankfully he delivered. He is a really nice horse.
"I was tempted to run him in the Grand National but I think John thought too much of him to run him there so we brought him to Punchestown.

Health department urges precautions against mosquitoes
BURLINGTON The Vermont Health Department is urging people to take precautions against mosquito-borne illnesses by avoiding bites that can spread illnesses such as eastern equine encephalitis or West Nile virus.
