A Boatload of Fun

Why eat the same boring food the same old way? It's time to take it up a notch. Enter the sushi boat at Hana.

The unassuming Japanese eatery on 7th Ave is a great spot for some serious sushi. It reminded me of one of my favorite East Village sushi bars- small, but cozy with some dang good food.

After finally deciding what to order (I tend to like everything which makes it hard to edit) we opened up our BYOB vino! I love places that offer this option.

Soon after, there arrived a boatload of sushi... literally. Our sushi arrived on a miniature wooden boat that was so playful and fun I couldn't help but geek out a little bit and take a picture.

We ordered the Caterpillar roll (crab. eel. avocado,cucumber) and a special roll that was wrapped in cucumber instead of rice! The contents of the special roll were incredibly fresh and tasty with some spicy seasoning on top. However, I must warn you. This is not an easy (or pretty) thing to eat. I had a bit of a problem with a bite gone awry.... not cute.

If you're looking to change things up, try Hana's.
