Hello Moto...I?

I went to a restaurant last night to have sake with a friend. I'd never been there and actually drove right past it while looking for it, but once I found it, I was captivated. The restaurant is named Moto-i and it's right next to Herkimer in Uptown. It's a Japanese sake bar with a full menu of delicious foods. I did the sake flight (three glasses of sake that they brew on their own), and enjoyed it very much. For those of you that have never tried sake, the wrong kind can taste like cheap vodka, but the right kind is like a smooth white wine. This was the smoothest sake I've ever had.

The food was also great. I had tuna sashimi (which was delicious but small), then went for some salmon rangoons with a hint of spice. My friend and I had a conversation about this blog and the bartender began chatting with us. Moon is her name, and she was awesome. I took a picture of the menu and posted in below, I left Moon out of the picture because I didn't have her permission.

Anyway, check out the place. You won't regret it.
