Birthday dinner with friends at Shoya.. All the photos are based on 8 courses OMAKASE( degustation menu) plus dessert as well as a platter of big Sashimi and sushi. Good experience, very friendly service. Can't wait for my next visit... http://afw.smugmug.com/Food/Shoya/IMG2030/475496329_XdNHu-Ti.jpg http://afw.smugmug.com/gallery/7383302_VCpnw/ 2009-02-16T22:43:42Z Copyright 2009, the copyright holder of each photograph.
