5/14/25 Akebono, Wedgwood neighborhood |
On my way to the Wedgwood post office several weeks ago, I
noticed that a new Japanese restaurant was getting ready to open nearby. Its
space had been occupied by a divey Chinese place for many years, so a cleaner
(and hopefully tasty) Japanese restaurant was very welcome in my neck of the
woods. (As much as I like Moriyama and AA Sushi, each requires a
drive through time-consuming traffic, despite being only a few miles away.)

Someday I'll arrive for lunch earlier so that I'll have the patience to sketch this lovely meal properly in full color. |
Speaking of colors, with lunch a bit late-ish that day, I was famished, so my sketch was hasty and without much detail (but with enough notes for my future reference). However, I’m including a photo here so you can see how colorful it really was.
In addition to sushi, Akebono has a vast menu of other items – ramen, Japanese style curry, non-fish meats, bento boxes and more. I’m looking forward to trying other things someday, especially since it’s so close to my neighborhood.
It looks like a rainbow on a plate...a very tempting sketch subject. Glad you found a good place nearby!
ReplyDeleteIndeed, a rainbow! Gotta have this again when I'm not so hungry! ;-)
