This roll was so good that we re-ordered it not once, but twice! This rice log is filled with tempura shrimp and spicy tuna and then lathered with a bright orange spicy sauce. Yum!

Wow! The only thing that can top a sushi feast at Tomo Sushi is this tempura ice cream. These cubes of battered and fried vanilla ice cream are the perfect size to share with your table-mates.

The Orange Clam has been on the special's boards the last two times I have frequented Tomo. The first time it was amazing, the second time it was good. Normally you would think of clam sashimi as somewhere between tough and chewy, but this dish is neither. ...it is a tad crunchy and amazingly edible. If you find this dish at Tomo, I highly recommend it!!

Normally I never deviate from the Steak Tubular Taco, but I thought I would try to find a new favorite at the hut. While this sandwich is not a new favorite, it was good. The bread was a bit hard, but after a while softened and the fries were scrumptious.

Chocolate Indulgence at Austin Oakville Grocery - CLOSED :(

This dish is incredible. The tender chocolate mouse at the center is surrounded by a thick, but soft dark chocolate skin. The Chocolate Indulgence is big enough to share with 2 or 3 others and make sure you get some milk to accompany this divine dessert!
