Sorry for the long absence, folks. Contrary to what you may think, I have not abandoned you. Freak snowstorms, emergency trips home to fix my car, and other messy events have delayed some of my plans, including updating this blog. Nevertheless, I am back with a new banner (photo courtesy of my lovely roommate, Ashley) and a lot of good eating ideas.
This weekend, I had the pleasure of going out to eat with two girlfriends to Kyoto Gardens on Campbell Lane. When my friends suggested this place, I confronted them with the, "Hey, now. I'm poor," speech. They promptly rolled their eyes and told me not to worry; this place won't break the bank.
Even though we arrived well after the Saturday night dinner rush, we were promptly seated and given drinks and soup. Soup was hot, drinks were cold, no problems there. For dinner, I ordered the hibachi chicken and vegetables, which comes with fried rice and some sort of ginger cream sauce. Now, I've never been a big fan of ginger, but after I was persuaded to try it by one of my table mates, I had to conclude that this sauce was awesome. Most of the dishes are set up the same way. It's simple, but it works. The food was fresh and warm, with good flavor, and the service was great. The experience was a good one, and definitely worth more than the price of the food.
Soda, soup, entrée, fortune cookie and all, I paid seven dollars. Kyoto's Garden, with their fast service, hot food, close proximity to campus, and their WKU Student Discount (yes! I know!) makes a good night out, that won't empty your wallet.
