Kozo Sushi to me is equivalent to fast food but for sushi. Now I don’t mean that in a bad way. Sushi has never made me feel like a blubber butt after consuming it so fast food sushi can’t be that bad. If you’ve been on the island for some time you’ve probably seen a few Kozo’s around. Kozo Sushi’s are always hiring. A lot of times you’ll find a young buck back there rolling your sushi. Just like fast food, they’ll hire just about anyone, “experience not necessary.” I put that in quotes because I swear I read that on their sign once.

If your wondering why there’s no tables in this photo, it’s because there are none. I was standing in the corner trying to snap a photo of the whole place. See, what I mean by fast sushi, don’t plan on eating inside, Kozo is more of a take out kind of place. However, there are tables out front that paying customers from Star Bucks, Jamba Juice, and Kozo Sushi all share, first come first serve.

This is the Philly Maki, $3.99. As you can see, they were pretty skimpy with the cream cheese today, but no worries I stilled enjoyed this just as well.

The Spicy Ahi Maki, $5.25 is not so spicy but still just as tasty.

Ahh, the good o’ classic California Maki, $3.89, will never go out of style. I Prefer mine with as little mayo as possible.

What I don’t suggest is getting a Hand Roll from this place. Some retard came up with this wrap and it’s the most annoying thing. Basically the rice is separate from the wrapper so you have to unwrap it just to wrap it up again.

But at no more than a couple of bucks for one, sometimes I’ll just have to deal with it.

If your in the mood for fast, cheap, simple sushi Kozo sushi can’t be beat.

My friend Cammie was down a few days ago. I can’t tell you guys how much I love this chick. But anyhoo, she knows how much I love sweets so she asks me, “hey have you been to Yami Yogurt at the mall? They have really good yogurt. I was like, “Yami Yogurt? No, and how is it possible that you been there already and I haven’t.” So the next day I was like ,”baby grab your keys we have to go some where, like now.” At first it was a bit hard to find since it was on the side of the mall that we’re never at, across from the food court on the other side.

I got a small grape flavored yogurt, $3.02. The prince was really weird to me; why not $3.00 or $3.05 but whatever. The cup was really small and since Ray and I were sharing I was a bit weary that it wouldn’t be enough. This cup was like seriously, 8oz but as you can see they filled it up quite nicely. The yogurt reminded me of the hello kitty candy I use to buy when I was a little girl. It was sweet, juicy, light and creamy. If you ever had candy from the hello kitty store, you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. They do have toppings too, lots of it but I didn’t take note of the price. I’ve had a lot of soft serve here on the island, from TCBY, Fiore, to DQ and in my opinion Yami’s is the best so far.

If you can read Japanese this shirt is pretty funny.

I don’t see a lot of TCBY’s anymore. Back in California there use to be quite a few, but then they started dropping like flies. I remember when I was a little girl my older sister, Lana would take Me and our little sister to the TCBY in Merced. I was a sugar whore back then too, difference is I had to rely on other people to pay my way. Well, times have change and these days I could afford to take myself to TCBY. Lets just say I’m a balla on a budget. On this particular day I happen to have little sis with me so it brought me great joy to rekindle old childhood memories with her.

The inside of TCBY.

As you can see it’s not a bad size for an ice cream shop

I got vanilla flavor in a small size, $269 with health toffee topping, .85 for two scoops. Their smalls are a generous size. One is plenty for one and perfect for two. Also, for .85 for two small scoops of topping is a nice deal. I can’t tell you how many times I just wish they would just be a little bit more generous with the toppings at other creameries. I didn’t feel that way here. The vanilla was smooth, refreshing and a just the right base for the toffee. I was really happy with my treat and so was little sis.

Not skimpy on the toppings at all.

But just so you guys know, the water fountain is out of order.

Also, if you want an employee’s phone number, don’t call and ask for it, they won’t give it to you. Instead just come inside and get it yourself. It’s right there behind the counter for anyone who wants it. * The owner of TCBY hit me up, and ask that I take off his employee’s phone numbers from my site. I debated for awhile, but since I’m such a nice person I decided to blur out their numbers. You’re welcome.

My little sis is goofy.
