Monday, 10-Nov-2014: Sushi Ran (in Sausalito, CA)

I can’t recall how many times my husband and I have been to Sushi Ran, probably more than 10 times in the past year, it is consistently good and, without a doubt, our favorite sushi restaurant in the Bay Area! We always sit at the sushi bar (sushi bar reservations can only be made on the phone, not online), order their Omakase (7 pieces of Nigiri), plus lots more Nigiri a la carte. We usually eat about 25 pieces per person and can eat for hours (we have been at SR from open to close, more than once — no joke!). Last night was no different, we ate 23+ pieces of Nigiri total, and the only thing that we did differently was that this time we ordered desserts (yes, PLURAL), which were pretty good too!

    Business idea for you and this is just to get more recognition for being such a huge supporter of a business.

    Thought:

    Link SushiRan in on your blog (copy website and past it in as a link). Find them on twitter follow them and when you blog goes out post the link on your twitter through bitly.com and use Sushi Ran in their tweet. If restaurants know your blogging and giving such huge ratings. That gains them more exposure which with gain them more stars. Then I am sure you will be able to sit at the bar all night on a Saturday.

    Just thoughts….also this place looks fabulous!
