What would be more apropos than to go eat sushi and have 100% of the profits from your meal help the victims of the tsunami and earthquakes in Japan? Because several of the people at Takami Sushi have family and friends in Japan, they are donating all their profits to the Japanese branch of the Red Cross with no end date for this generous act of charity as of this post.
If you want to help and either don’t like sushi or don’t live near downtown Los Angeles, you can buy a piece of art here and 100% of the profits will go towards charitable organizations in Japan. Pieces range from $15 to $1000 so get one or get several.
To update yesterday’s post, T Mobile, Comcast, and Time Warner have finally joined AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint in offering free calls (and texts) to Japan for prepaid US subscribers; better late than never, and that applies to sending aid as well.
The space at Royal/T is fun just to wander around as an art gallery and shop, but what if it is a lazy afternoon and you want a nice nosh in Culver City? Royal/T cafe offers a food fusion of Japanese art/aesthetics with French and Californian styles, all served by waitresses in French Maid Costumes (I know my friend Pel wants to work here just to wear the costumes).
All this translates to a High Tea with a choice of loose tea, served with small pastries, mini quiche, kappa maki, California roll, egg salad and spicy tuna finger sandwiches ($19.50). If you want Japanese comfort food they have a chicken curry bowl ($9.50). Just want a salad, then get a spinach & beet salad with goat cheese and walnuts ($9.00). Meat lovers can order the flank steak with roasted tomato and Gruyere on baguette ($10.00).Wash it all down with one of their 15 kinds of tea, a fruit juice, or one of the organic espresso drinks.
Today may be Friday the 13th, but there is nothing unlucky about finding great fusion fun at Royal/T.
