``Just a few hours ago I had my first dining experience at a real Japanese Restaurant called Akida. When I first walked in, I felt as if I had stepped into Japan itself, the atmosphere was strikingly authentic and very cozy. I felt right at home as my kind waiter seated up and served us drinks. Immediately I knew I was going to love eating here.

``Then he came from behind the sushi bar carrying our mMiso Soup, which was the best I have ever eaten. Then came the shrimp tempura, which I loved as well. Relaxing under the dim yellow light, casting from the paper lamps and shades, I gaized at the ancient prints on the walls. Samurai. Geisha. Sumo.

``Then I ordered my main corse, which was chicken teriyaki. When it was placed before me, my mouth was watering. Sizzling in that warm plate, just waiting to be enjoyed. And so I did just that.

``Dessert was the most exotic part of my whole meal. I chose to try the fried banana, which was just that, a carefully fried banana with whip cream on top and a bit of dipping honey. This was a dessert unlike anything I've ever tried before, it was simply relaxing to savor and enjoy.

``Overall this restaurant is highly impressive and is definetely at the top of my list of favorite Japanese Restaurants, I highly reccomend giving this wonderful little piece of Japan a try; I know I look forward to going there another day soon!''
