Open Letter to Bun Lai and Miya's Sushi

Dear Bun,

I would like to thank you for the magical evening. We have had so many together, but paradoxically, each seems to be unique and special. Upon reflection, this is the magic of a night at MIYA%26#39;S with Bun presiding as sorcerer.

Goethe once wrote that ';one ought, everyday at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few resonable words.'; Though I feel some trepidation in amending such fine words from such a supremely perceptive man, I dare say that Goethe, if he ever dinned at Miya%26#39;s, would have included ';to eat a lovely meal, and pass time with a beautiful soul,'; to his requisites for a good day. Not many bring such goodness into the world for others to experience and take into theri lives. it is the combination of a rare gift and creative energy. You should know this.

Open Letter to Bun Lai and Miya's Sushi

Bun Lai is creative to the extreme and never stops thinking about food or what he is going to create next, or ingredients people would never think would go together. Though his menu may be in the clouds where his mind comfortably resides, his restaurant is determinedly down to earth.

The cozy decor; the waitresses who know your name and favorite dish after you have eaten there twice; and the general sense of brio, elan, eclat, panache - pick your favorite unusual word to describe this most unusual sushi joint, a restaurant with the spirit of a bar and the comfiness of a diner - the incomparable Miya%26#39;s Sushi.
