I {heart} Crazy Sushi


Some time last year I ventured over to a restaurant called Crazy Sushi for the first time. It’s walking distance from my house and I love the makizushi.

As I watched Lee prepare my first order, I immediately recognized the guy was a kung fu master with a black belt in the fish and rice arts. Although the restaurant was new, the walls were already graced with a handful of hand-made works of art…expressions of affections by his growing customer base.

I decided to join the tradition of creating art for the restaurant, so I doodled a drawing on the back of one of the order forms as I waited.

By the time Lee finished creating my dinner I had finished my pencil drawing: a sketch of an intense-looking, muscled-out, guitar hero of a fish, griding away on his undersea axe, which was wired up to an oyster-shell amp. Above “Rock Fish’s” head were the words: CRAZY SUSHI RAWX!!.

Crazy Sush Rawx!!

Imagine my surprise when, just last week, Lee hands me his new business cards. Apparently the Rock Fish (or is it Rawk Fish?) is now part of the store’s official logo!!

The art will be used on store T-Shirts as well.

I am, of course, extremely honored, and I stand by the proclamation of that particular drawing: Crazy Sushi in Madison Heights does, in fact, RAWK!
