get wet

i sent this ad to a friend earlier today, as she plans to make her way to north county tonight to meet up with me.  the bright colors and springtime image seemed to fall in line with the weather and general feel for the day.  with only a handful of local establishments to dine & drink in a social atmosphere, it seems like a good choice for a wednesday evening- dj theron is awesome and zenbu isn't such a bad spot either.

zenbu, a sushi bar by day and a cocktail lounge by night, has a relatively small, dark interior space backlit by a huge fish tank.  relying on his own seafood company, ocean giant, to provide fresh fish daily, founder/owner, matt rimel, serves up delicious sushi and seafood dishes.  while there are many options on the menu, i personally love the salbacore roll: spicy crap, asparagus, asian pear, cucumber, daikon sprouts topped with seared albacore and avocado and finished with siracha, asian vinaigrette and orange zest.

it's not a feat to get to people to come to zenbu, but i was happy to see that theron was venturing out of downtown and giving north county a taste of his talent.  no doubt he'll work the crowd tonight with his beats.
