A few months ago while driving down Ford I noticed a sushi restaurant was being setup in the small plaza on North-West corner of Ford & Lilley - O'Sushi. It had an 'opening soon banner' for quite a long time. A few weeks ago they opened, and tonight, I decided to try them out. There is only one word I can use to describe the taste of their cuisine - exquisite. I ordered a spider roll, a philadelphia roll, and a cup of green tea. Very, very, very, very good sushi.

Over the past couple days I've been getting side-tracked from the VESA version of BootSkin to work on a couple other projects.
