Wasabi Sushi at Prairie Fire

When Prairie Fire opened this past weekend, it seemed like half of KC came over to take a look.  Kansas City's marching band Cobras performed.  TV crews filmed.   Street DJ filled the air with the 80s music.   Lines formed for the new movie theater.   And excitement was everywhere.

Having spent a good couple of hours wondering from store to store, we got hungry and decided to try out Wasabi Sushi Bar.   Wasabi has outside dining area with several tables, so we sat there in the shade.  Great for people watching and fresh air.  We are big sushi fans and have a few favorite sushi restaurants in town.  Wasabi's sushi was up there with the best of them.  

What I liked about the menu was the pictures of different rolls (rather than only ingredient descriptions).

Bill and I shared Beth's, rainbow, and spicy scallop rolls.   Yum!

Alexis went for the chicken tempura from the kids' menu.   She is not a big eater, but by the time she declared she was done, there were only a couple of pieces left on the plate.

Emily, who usually shares rolls with us, decided on this Grilled Salmon.  It was a beautiful plate and the fish was delicious.

I think we've found another family favorite and we are making plans to come back.  Is it the weekend yet?
