I’ve never played paintball till I came to Canada. The man’s buddy made a bet with us that we weren’t going to win because I was an amateur who had never played before but I did a little practice with some of the gals who had accompanied their boyfriends before the actual day and guess what? We didn’t lose.. in fact.. it was the buddy’s girlfriend that got him killed in the game. We went to a Japanese restaurant for the winning celebration.. and it had to be a real torture for the buddy because he can’t eat seafood.
My interest is of course heightened with winning the game but unfortunately we don’t have many places that sell paintball markers and its accessories. Someone recommended ECHO1 USA as they carry a wide range air guns, BB guns, replica guns and of course paintball markers and accessories like masks, holsters, gun trigger upgrades and more. They do have top quality guns and are perfect for target practice, plinking, hunting and games. The pricing is affordable and for orders over $199 they even offer free ground shipping for all 48 lower states.

When we were in the city .. collecting my immigration papers and passport which took less than 10 mins after waiting for so many months. The man and I thought it was a good idea .. to go for a celebration. I of course, chose my favourite Japanese food for this celebration. .! we went to Dharma Sushi.. but alas they were so busy. .the owner/chef wasn’t even willing to do my favorite chawanmushi for me. And no.. it is not in the menu at all..! so deprived. I know the man made his best effort to celebrate with me.. but i guess it can’t be helped.. another time perhaps.

At USD$14 for a tray of japanese strawberries.. you can be sure it wasn’t just me who enjoyed it. Once you’ve eaten Japanese strawberries..you never want to eat another type of strawberries.

This was the lunch special I had at Dharma Sushi .. when I was up in Halifax a few weeks ago. As you can see.. the presentation was so-so.. but the food was decent. Unlike the ones sold at our local Sobeys..this is definitely worth eating. The rice was moist and the fish somewhat fresh. I had expected more.. but i guess with only one Japanese chef.. and a lunch crowd.. that’s the best one can get..?? the next time.. i am up in the city.. i’m gonna try some other places.. just because.

By very rare chance i found this during my trip to the city. This are Japanese rice cake with red bean inside it. They were very nice and fresh .. at $1.95 per piece. .it wasn’t too bad a deal at all. But the red bean could be softer though. I haven’t had this for years… so it was great..!

Dharma Sushi is located in Argyle Street in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The owner is a Japanese, so you can expect quality sushi .. and quality food.. at reasonable prices. This trip to Dharma Sushi was just as good. Unfortunately, because there was only one chef, he can’t do any specials for me. I didn’t get to eat my favorite Chawanmushi either.
