Sushi California - a trip to Vancouver's suburbs to eat good sushi

Sushi California

http://www.dineouthere.com/restaurants/sushi-california-coquitlam-part-2

is a Japanese restaurant at the corner of Lougheed Hwy and North Road in Coquitlam BC Canada (across from Lougheed Mall and near Denny's and Mcdonalds).

In this video, I show my trip from downtown Vancouver (Yaletown) which is the home to many tiny cute dogs (such as the three shown in the video that almost trip up their owner), past Foodness convenience store on Seymour street, Vita wine shop, Cibo restaurant, The Orpheum Theatre, Kim's Snack at HMart, Toyama Sushi, and the Hudson Bay Building, and go into the Granville Skytrain station. I hop on the Eastbound train and take the connection at Commercial Drive/Broadway on to the Millennium Line which goes out through Burnaby and Coquitlam. I get off at Lougheed Mall station and it's a short walk over to the restaurant.

I include shots of the menu and restaurant interior and then focus in on the yummy Japanese food including Miso Soup, Green Tea, Ebi Sunomono Salad, Tuna and Salmon sushi, Inari, Ikura, and Tamago sushi, Dragon Roll Sushi, and Avocado roll.

Finally I show an exterior shot of the restaurant and parking lot, and then some shots of my night-time trip back into downtown Vancouver on the Skytrain. Once back downtown, I film some of the paper lantern festival and public art displayed on Granville Street (which is part of the celebration in Vancouver for the 2010 Winter Olympics).

The music is called "Heartbeet" and was created by Geoff Peters http://www.birdsinthehouse.com and Marcus Emmanuel Barnes http://www.knobb.ca .

Please note that the views expressed in this video may not be supported or approved by the music creators (e.g. Marcus is raw vegan, but this video shows images of sushi which contain animal products). Visit Marcus's website about raw veganism here: http://www.eatrawvegan.com

Geoff Peters shot the video on Saturday January 23rd 2010, using a Panasonic AG-DVX100A MiniDV video camera and then edited the film in iMovie on a MacBook.

I think that Sushi California has the best sashimi i ever tried. Always fresh. Great place overall, i love it. The only complain i could have is that it gets busy very fast, and the girls who work there keep forgetting to add some tea in your cup, or even mix up the orders lol.

[geoffpeterstrio]

cool! where do you like to eat in that area? I also like the House of Tofu Soup and Insadong, and Anducci's.

[detectiveguo]

oh wow you actually came all the way down to Coquitlam to eat sushi? I actually live really close to Sushi California...xD

The sushi is pretty good but a bit pricy with the nigiri sushi.
