It's Pompeii All Over Again... Just With Onions

It's me again!  We have exactly 180 views on this awesome blog, so thank you to the people who like looking at this blog. Just today, we went to another Teppanyaki place, called Tako Sushi, on Don Mills Road, Toronto, Ontario, Canada. (For those of you who don't know what that means, look at my 2nd post) The place was real DELICIOUS. (Plus, there is a new rating of ☆ for atmosphere) But have you heard of the story of Pompeii? (Pom-Pay)

Pompeii was an ancient Roman city extremely near a volcano called Mount Vesuvius. And one day, the volcano exploded so ridiculously that the walls of lava went over 10 feet tall. To make it even worse, there were 3 huge toxic gas clouds that rolled down the mountain and into the city. If you visit Pompeii today, you can still see the ruins of the buildings and people covered in a huge layer of ash. But what does this have to do with food?

The actual atmosphere rating of the place:

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆/10 ☆s

Notes:
-Outside looks like dump
-Inside has dark green tiled walls
-Inside is very nice
-Service is pretty slow
-Wait is totally worth it
-Difficult parking
-The sign said:"Ta shi"
-Has to fix sign


You may ask, what does Pompeii have to do with food? Well, it was the onion volcano with a malfunction, that spread over to the other vegetables.

Ratings:

Shirley Temple: 7/10
Fried Rice: 7.5/10
Sushi: 8.5/10
Veggies: 3.5/5
Meats: 14.5/15

82% Good!

Hope I see you next time...
