To your list you may want to add Akai Hana on Lake street in Wilmett, just east of the Edens (94) expressway. This is one of my personal values. The secret here (which isn't very secret ifyou bother to read the posters in the entryway) is that it is a Moony concern. Yes you heard right, a reserant owned by followers of the Reverend Sun Moon. Most of the workers (with the exception a few waitresses who are just local teenagers -- mothers beware) are doing this instead of selling flowers in airports to raise money so the Reverned can buy another rolls. What makes this relevent is that the place has a lower overhead due to decreased labor costs, this saving is reflected in the price of the sushi but not in the quality of the same. Additionally it is located right next to sea ranch grocery and fish store. The latter of which will produce VERY fresh selecitons of sushi for take out, but you usually should order a head. Sea Ranch and Akai Hana are NOT owned by the same people (as a matter of fact I get the feeling that the sea ranch people who were there frst resent the association). Personally I'm hopeing one or two more Japanese stores move into that mini mall making it a sort of little Japan. I think that there's a large enought Japanese population in the area to support it. -- Rebecca Anne Radnor // I know everything, Dept. of Anthropology, NU // I know nothing, Japlady= Jewish American Princess // I used to put sticks under the back porch and Japan-ophile // and wait for them to petrify.
