Nozomi's Chirashi Salad

Nozomi is located on Convoy Street in Kearny Mesa.  Many a time have I eaten here, but this was the first time I tried their specialty, the Chirashi Salad!

Definitely don't attempt this alone!  This massive salad can easily feed 2-3 people!  It has sushi rice on the bottom, then lettuce, spouts and cucumber, topped with an assortment of chopped raw fresh fish and fish eggs!  You mix it all together, then serve it in individual bowls.  And it's served with a delicious spicy sesame dressing.


So, that was an amazing experience.  Definitely would do that again.
Also had the "mushroom special" hot appetizer.  Another large portion, it was 6 large tempura coated mushrooms topped with spicy crab meat.


Don't let me forget the turtles! 
The turtles have a pond at the entrance of Nozomi to help greet the customers as they come in.
These two are practicing their circus act!
Turtles love teamwork! ;)
