J- and I recently found this place, Manpuku. It is a good thing because we have also been finding a budget.  We used to love to go to Kirala, often on J-’s brother’s treat.  It really wasn’t sustainable to rely on Kirala for our sushi desires.  Manpuku is certainly not the highest quality sushi around, not even close…but for the price of a couple of rolls at other places, we can afford to fill up at Manpuku.

I think we had walked in for a quick bite a few years ago before we went to see a movie across the street at the Elmwood Theater. It didn’t really stick with us as memorable. Recently, our neighbor B- told us about it and how she and her husband M- often get takeout because of its price.

Now, we can’t get enough of it.  I did recently buy some sushi-making supplies so that we can start making our own.  We’ll see how much we make it to the store to keep the fillings in stock!!
