FastCGI is a binary protocol for interfacing interactive programs with a web server. FastCGI is a variation on the earlier Common Gateway Interface (CGI); FastCGI's main aim is to reduce the overhead associated with interfacing the web server and CGI programs, allowing a server to handle more web page requests per same amount of time.
CGI is a protocol for interfacing external applications to web servers. CGI applications run in separate processes, which are created at the start of each request and torn down at the end. This "one new process per request" model makes CGI programs very simple to implement, but limits efficiency and scalability. At high loads, the operating system process creation and destruction overhead becomes significant. In addition, the CGI process model limits resource reuse techniques (such as reusing database connections, in-memory caching, etc.).
To address the scalability shortcomings of CGI, Open Market developed FastCGI and first introduced it in their webserver product in the mid-1990s. Open Market originally developed FastCGI in part as a competitive response to Netscape's proprietary, in-process API (NSAPI) for developing Web applications.
Although initially developed by Open Market, FastCGI was implemented by a number of other webserver makers. The FastCGI approach, however, competed against other techniques which also aimed to speed and simplify server-subprogram communications. Apache modules such as mod_perl and mod_php appeared around the same time, and they also quickly gained popularity. Today, all of these various approaches (including CGI) remain in common use.
Instead of creating a new process for each request, FastCGI uses persistent processes to handle a series of requests. These processes are owned by the FastCGI server, not the web server. [1]
To service an incoming request, the web server sends environment information and the page request itself to a FastCGI process over either a Unix domain socket, a named pipe or a TCP connection. Responses are returned from the process to the web server over the same connection, and the web server subsequently delivers that response to the end-user. The connection may be closed at the end of a response, but both the web server and the FastCGI service processes persist.[2]
Each individual FastCGI process can handle many requests over its lifetime, thereby avoiding the overhead of per-request process creation and termination. Processing of multiple requests simultaneously can be achieved in several ways: by using a single connection with internal multiplexing (i.e. multiple requests over a single connection); by using multiple connections; or by a combination of these techniques. Multiple FastCGI servers can be configured, increasing stability and scalability.
Web site administrators and programmers can find that the separation of web applications from the web server in FastCGI has many advantages over embedded interpreters (mod_perl, mod_php, etc.). This separation allows server and application processes to be restarted independently – an important consideration for busy web sites. It also enables the implementation of per-application / hosting service security policies, which is an important requirement for ISPs and web hosting companies.[3] Different types of incoming requests can be distributed to specific FastCGI servers which have been equipped to handle those particular types of requests efficiently.
FastCGI can be implemented in any language that supports network sockets. (Since "FastCGI is a protocol, not an implementation," it is not tightly bound to any language at all.) APIs exist[17] for:
Recent frameworks such as Ruby on Rails, Catalyst, Django, Kepler and Plack allow use with either the embedded interpreters (mod_ruby, mod_perl, mod_python or mod_lua, for example), or FastCGI.

Cool and Crunchy: 5 Easy Radish Slaws
Are you wary of radishes? Maybe you don't love their flavor enough to eat them plain (even if it's with butter and sea salt)? Don't give up on this early Spring vegetable just yet. Try slicing it into a colorful slaw with one of these tangy, sweet, or peanut-y dressings.
We love slaws- the way you can scoop up one big forkful and get a menagerie of shaved vegetables in one bite. We love the crunch, the bright color, and the way they can be made ahead of time.
In all of these recipes, radishes are an accompaniment to another slaw stalwart, like cabbage or carrots.
1. Cabbage and Radish Slaw with Peanut Dressing (above), from Martha Stewart. This looks more rustic and chunky, or maybe it was just composed for the picture, but you could easily run everything through a food processor and shred it to make it more quickly.
2. Napa Cabbage Slaw with Radishes, Golden Raisins and Dijon Dressing, also from Martha Stewart. A little sweet, a little spicy, and the radishes take more center stage with the softer, less crunchy Napa cabbage.
3. Cabbage-Radish Slaw with Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette, from The New York Times. More of a Latin flair; it also has poblano chiles in it.
4. Radish Slaw, from Epicurious. A simple dressing of lemon juice, sugar, and olive oil. Couldn't be easier.
5. Radish Slaw with New York Deli Dressing, from Cooking Light. We're not exactly sure what makes this dressing a New York deli dressing (it has mustard?), but we love the mix of carrots and bell peppers. No cabbage in this one!
Do you have a radish slaw recipe you'd like to share?

Last weekend, my brother came down to stay with us. He was in town for a conference and we were lucky enough to have him visit for a few days. Although Shane had to attend his conference on Friday and Saturday, we were able to spend a good amount of time visiting, chatting, and just relaxing.
On Thursday, we whipped up some of my becoming-famous Mexi-burgers (recipe to come). The boys gave them two thumbs up, which is a wild success considering they are lean turkey burgers.
I also won them over with my Sweet Chocolate Secret Cupcakes (SCSCs). Another recipe for another day…and yes, these were healthy too! Shaner even ate one as part of his breakfast on Saturday.
It was so awesome to have him come and hang out. I adore my siblings and love every minute I get to spend with them.
Shane got on the road Sunday afternoon to head back home to his wifey (they just celebrated their one month anniversary. Yay!).
Phil didn't have any homework so we were trying to decide what to do with our day when I got a wicked-good idea; office makeover time! We've been planning away and last week I selected the paint color and furniture. So, we decided to tackle the project.
Hot mess…..
I went and picked up the paint while Phil cleaned and emptied out the room. He started painting and I headed out to run errands. Two hours later, I finally was home with a big haul.
And the room was done! I'm in love.
Since I was feeling nostalgic, I made some homemade chicken fingers and roasted asparagus for dinner that we enjoyed during the Grammys.
It was a great weekend with lots of fun, relaxing and exciting projects!

Amateur footage shot around Pier Head, Dale Street and Liverpool city centre.
Made by Liver Cine Group member Jim Gonzales in the early 1960s, this amateur
film shot in and around Liverpool city centre stands out in particular for its
detailed depiction of the spaces and buildings around Queen Square and St
George's Place, an area of the city that has witnessed profound urban
transformation since the 1960s.
Gonzales' film starts off by exploring the landscape around Pier Head,
including the iconic Liver Building and St Nicholas' Church. Repeated and
pronounced use of the zoom is evident in these sequences, suggesting the
filmmaker may perhaps have been experimenting with new camera technology.
Footage shot in Exchange Flags behind the Town Hall and of Tempest Hey off Dale
Street indicate that Gonzales is heading uphill from Pier Head towards the city
centre, as if having just arrived by ferry.
The main part of the film is centred exclusively in and around the old market
area around Great Charlotte Street, Queen Square, Williamson Square and St
George's Place. Gonzales carefully observes the facades of the buildings,
recording street names, shop signs, hotels, businesses and other commercial
establishments long since vanished. Charting the film's locations on a 1950s
ordnance survey map of the area reveals a filmic geography that is clearly
focused on the spaces and buildings around the whole of the market area, spaces
which are now dominated by the much-loathed St John's Precinct shopping centre
and Queen Square multi-story car park.
The slow, lingering camerawork, scanning the buildings and panning across
streets and squares, signals a desire to capture and memorialise a disappearing
landscape, one that by the early 1960s had already been earmarked for demolition
as part of plans to extensively redevelop this area of Liverpool. In the film
the streets are mostly empty of people and traffic, lending the space a further
air of impending and ghostly absence. The film is also notable for featuring
rare footage showing the shops, restaurants and hotels that stretched along St
George's Place, a view which used to greet visitors to Liverpool arriving by
Les Roberts

The Casey Anthony You Don't Know
Love is blind!
In the videos below, Casey Anthony does not seem like a monster who could kill her child in cold blood as she talks from behind bars to her father George. George Anthony is a loving and decent father, and you can tell how deeply depressed he is over Caylee's disappearance. Casey cries real tears, but what is behind them? I think she is feeling horribly guilty over what she did, and how it is going to impact her family for the rest of their lives. Think of the worst thing that has ever happened to you and your family and then magnifiy that a thousand times over, and you begin to get an idea what this family is going through.
At this point in time George Anthony believes that Caylee is still alive and still with Zanny the Nanny, somewhere..... Over and over again he tries to get Casey to open up and tell him where Caylee is, but of course Casey will not answer that because little Caylee is wrapped up in garbage bags and left to rot with animals chewing on her little bones. What I cannot understand is how Cindy and George could stand behind their daughter and believe she was innocent of any wrong doing when her car smelled of a decomposing body. It was so bad that the car still reeked of death two years later. I just wonder what Casey told them to make them believe this smell was from garbage in the trunk. LOVE IS BLIND!
Yes, Casey is evil, but her family is not. George and Cindy are the most decent people you could ever ask for, as is Lee, their son. I have watched almost a 100 youtube.com tapes with the family talking to Casey, and over and over again, in a horrific and difficult situation they have acted with class. Imagine yourself in their shoes. they did not deserve this, their lives will never ever be the same again, and then they have to put up with the media at the very worst time of their lives, adding insult to injury. The stress of it all got so bad that George Anthony even tried to end it all, and frankly, I don't blame the poor man. But, did that end the media circus? No, the media smells blood and they are not going to let up until they get every last nasty detail out in the open for the rest of the world to gloat over. I think it is SICK, just as sick, if not sicker than what Casey did to her child. Don't these poor people deserve a little privacy?
What this family has had to endure is beyond human suffering. I just pray that the good Lord will allow them to heal and go on. As for Casey, she will have to live with herself and that could well be the worst punishment of all. I think she truly does love her family and did love Caylee, but she is also selfish and spoiled, and for that mistake she will have to pay for the rest of her life.
This guy Patrick from high school is nice enough to stop by and offer his help. WHY doesn't she ask him to look for Caylee?
Casey had the most loving parents you could ever want.

The problem comes down to what the jury was legally bound to make analysis of. There was little or no physical evidence left from the original crime to present as anything but cirumstancial in legal terms. Yes Casey probably did commit the murder. I also think at least the Mother was complicit or possibly involved, I don't believe the parents were guilt free in any way. '
IQ tests for juries really cannot be made standard, otherwise the same would hold for the criminals being compitent to stand trial. We prosecute people with below 80 IQs for murder all the time. We prosecute the mentally ill. We convict the uneducated. We put to death the morally bankrupt. Psychopathology is not truly recognized for what it is, that is my word on that subject. I do not wish to spark a debate about genetic predispositions in criminal behavior. But I would remark on one area before I run off...
Let us say the situation was reversed, and Kaley was the psychopath who let say poisoned and murdered her mother.
Or like Kipland Kinkle in Oregon shot her to death ( Kipland took down nearly 24 students and his own parents before school that morning, he was only 12 at the time. )
Or like the Jonesboro kids who at 10 and 13 trapped half a dozen younger students in an ambush as they were leaving their school building.
Or lets get real nasty about it, and bring up the case in Littleton Colorado.
Kipland Kinkle came from two cult of the humanities sociologist school teacher parents, obviously athiests blah blah blah.
The Jonesboro boys on the other hand, we publicly know to come from a good chruch going Baptist background, and were being raised by a single mother and grandmother. They single out girls in their ambush, so Christian women had caused their own kind of dysfunctional repression.
In Littleton, the two boys there came from a conservative NRA saluting, masculine single father with a Nazarine background. God Guns and Government philosophy, very partiotic, but probably very paranoid.
And before anyone blames single parenting, need we bring up Jefrey Dahmer, Ted Bundi and John Wayne Gacy, who all came from two parent divorce free homes. Ick...
My point is, being god fearing or godless ( I meant to use lower case G's in both cases ) probably has no bearing or effect on psychopathology. I wonder how many people who think Casey should have the death penalty or worse, would put a child under 15 in the electric chair. Or would the condemn them to a lifetime of instituionalized care in an asylum? Should they have the right to breed? If people are wrong to have abortions, then why not just make breeding a commodity of livestock husbandry. Then no human would have an abortion without being authorized sane to breed in the first place.
Or better yet sterilize and kill the children, do the same with the women and men. What would be your choice in such matters. Please do not think I am being critical of anyones values. But if society deemed me unfit to live or breed, I would willingly accept their verdict. Personally though I would prefer to be put to death.
I have thought about this for many years. And am interested if anyone has any opinions that are balanced on this issue. I believe morality, logic, science, religion, Atheism and God have all failed to provide anything other than more rhetoric, and also excuses for more bigotry.
Vicarious condemnation of the sinners of the world is the blood lust of the Christian. Vicarious comdemnation of the morally bankrupt is the bloodlust of the Atheist. Fuck both of those points of view.
We are talking about Human beings.
That is where my dilema always stalemates to me. Whew, sorry Magnoliazz, but you know me. I always got an opinion. Maybe your animals could serve jury duty and get a decent verdict.
I am sure the Goats would not do as Baaaadddddly. LMAO
Keep on Hubbing my lovely thoughful friend. Keep on Hubbing. Blake4d
How the jury could have let Casey go completely free is beyond my comprehension. I never saw Casey as pretty or beautiful. I saw her as a sociopath that either killed her beautiful little girl in cold blood, or accidentally killed her by giving her the anti-anxiety drug Xanax.
That is where "Zanny the Nanny" came in. Zanny being a nickname for Xanax.
Casey committed a crime and the jurors let her get away with it.
I am still quite upset over the verdict.. I don't know if she killed Caylee in cold blood but in the least she was negligent and what is worse, lied to cover it up. That part is obvious. She is the only one that knows what happened to that little girl. I still can't believe she is walking a free woman. I'll tell you this much though, she is far from free. She is the most hated person in America and whether it be sooner or later, KARMA is going to catch up with her and as bad as this sounds, I'll be smiling when that day comes.
My Dove:
Casey Anthony is just another diseased American psychopath, who only wants what is in her own best interest. Moreover, too many mothers in this country believe their children are extentions of themselves and if they want to remove what they consider to be a hang-nail...they just cut it off and remove it from their lives.
That's all little Calley was to her mother...a major inconvenience that had to be removed...an accessory that no longer accentuated her lifestyle. And, like you said, many women in this country have done worse to their own babies, so why should psycho mom have to live by a higher standard than the rest of her twisted sisters? Statistically speaking, at least two of those women on the jury had abortions of their own and at least 3 of the court jesters had no children at all.
Now, I highly doubt that Casey came from a loving, decent, moral family...I think it was probably a dysfunction junction and like a river, Casey took the path of least resistance and her parents did next to nothing to dissuade her descent into the third circle of Hell, thus I do not subscribe to the theory that she became a monster all on her own (monsters aren't born - they're made). But, be that as it may, she made her own choices and she will have to answer for them...and I pray that the Angel of Justice will pay her a visit in the very near future.
Perhaps her life expectancy would have been longer if she was granted the death penalty by the court jesters posing as a jury. The average convict on death row lives 20 years before their judgement is carried out, but I doubt Casey will live to see that on the outside of prison.
I said from the beginning that the Casey Anthony murder trial was two trials in one: (1) Casey Anthony's murder trial and, (2) whether or not America is willing to convict a good looking woman.
It is already known by the American Medical Association and the FBI that at least 33% of all SIDS (Sudden infant death syndrome) cases are actually post-birth abortions (a.k.a infant homicides) perpetrated by mothers.
It is also known that 58% of all cases of child abuse are rendered by biological mothers, with biological fathers way down the list.
Women are known to receive preferential treatment in many westernized societies. In America, women are known to get off from traffic violations twice as often as men. Studies have also shown that if a crime is perpetrated by a female, it is seen by our society as being 44% less offensive, than if the same crime was committed by a male.
In the same likeness, a woman who kills her husband gets half the time (on average) in prison a man would get if he kills his wife and that's assuming she gets convicted at all, because many of them use the "abused wife" defence successfully in court.
The bottom line is that justice is not blind and Lady Law is a dubious slut who has prostituted her integrity in favor of politics and social expediency. Therefore, an over abundance of men get sent to prison, while women are more apt to be released or sent to counseling.
Taking all these things into consideration, it seems that the evidence should lead one to conclude that our society considers the life of a female to be superior to that of a male.
America is not ready or willing to make women suffer the same levels of accountability and responsibility that are imposed upon men. Yes, America demands that women should receive equal pay and equal rights in the workforce and abroad, but they are not required to fight to protect their country and in many cases are not required to face the cold hand of death or iron fist of justice like their fathers, sons, and brothers.
This trial was all about whether or not 5 men and 7 women were willing to concede that a good looking, young woman committed an act worthy of the death penalty. Please understand that America has adopted a culture of death such that the cruel and brutal murder and dismemberment of babies and infants are not only ignored and given upbeat euphemisms - they are often funded through tax dollars!!!
This degenerate jury found Casey "not guilty" of commiting a crime worthy of the death penalty, but they never said she was innocent. She is, however, guilty of murdering her child and this spineless jury is guilty of lacking enough moral conviction to render justice regardless of the cost!
In this country its all about a woman's right to experience "Bella Vita" - "the beautiful life", even if that means burning innocence and justice on the altar of sexism and moral relativism.
Having said all that, I believe, having a mother like Casey Anthony, it may have been in little Caley's best interest to have left behind her hedonistic, promiscuous, murderous, and immoral mother for the warmth, safety and love of her Eternal Father's Heavenly home, while her spirit was still pure and innocent and uncorrupted by her mother's life of sin.
I Suppose by now you have the verdict. I have only basic thoughts on it, am also interested in yours Magnoliazz. Wheater Casey is truly guilty or not.
American is not ready to put a single mother on death row. ( Even one who has killed her own child ) There are lots of double standards in the legal system, and how it treats men and women.
Men and women pedophiles get treated differently. So do male and female murderers for the most part. This case fell into the grey area between those two extremems. Also the defense did an excellent job on their case and definately cast reasonable doubt into the picture.
The prosecution on the other hand basically dropped the ball, they should have pursued a lesser charge but would have ended up getting a conviction.
Since the prosecution decided to play hard ball, the system failed to give justice.
I personally think all murders should be death penalty if we are going to have a death penalty. Since reasonable doubt allows many cases to be won for the defense, when the prosecution wins the death penalty should be standard. But that is just my opinion. I am sure if I committed murder I might feel differently. Either way I wanted to make sure i made a comment on this hub when the case ended.
Love you Magnoliazz
Keep on Hubbing. Blake4d
Do you NOT see through the façade of Cindy Anthony? Think back 3 years ago….Cindy Anthony even admitted that she gave the FBI analysts the wrong hair brush, deliberately, as she knew that Casey had murdered Caylee. In the trial, Cindy Anthony testified that she researched chloroform on the computer in 2008. Hmm...Good memory? Cindy has lied from the beginning and no one (except Nancy Grace and cult of followers of course) should be surprised at that.
Cindy Anthony is a deceitful, controlling, and manipulative woman with a covert-aggressive personality. As shown throughout the trial and in the last three years, Cindy Anthony uses tactics all great manipulators use – they make it seem like they are the one's hurting, caring, and defending (sound familiar?). Practice made Cindy Anthony very effective at displaying mental and interpersonal behavior to get things to go her way. Look at the film bites HLN shows – It is obvious Cindy is always in complete control. Even the HLN poster boy, Jesse Grund, stated during his interview that there were times that Cindy Anthony referred to herself as "Mommy" when talking to Caylee in front of Casey.
Magzz, whats this all about? I dont know the background!!

In contrast to an earlier strategy that surrounded its high-profile Super Bowl spot for Type 1 jeans (see story P. 25), Levi Strauss Signature jeans will advertise only in Wal-Mart stores with three 30-second spots on Premier Retail Networks in-store screens, along with in-store signage, and some support in weekly ad circulars, a Wal-Mart spokeswoman said.
Competing Wal-Mart brand VF Corp.'s Wrangler Red Label Hero jeans, meanwhile, in preparation for the Levi's move into its discount store turf, plans a more traditional ad campaign with one or two spots on cable TV, according to Mark Clift, VP-marketing communications for VF jeanswear, mass marketing division.
"Levi's is an [icon]-it means jeans-no one would ever discount that," said Wrangler's Mr. Clift, who said he hopes the attention to Levi's will bring more Wal-Mart customers into the jeans section. Nevertheless, he is reshaping his latest round of ads for the company's new Five Star Denim jeans, focusing on male customers in small towns and rural areas, and dropping the income of its target audience to as low as $40,000 from $60,000 household income targeted in the past.
much at stake
Levi Strauss has much at stake in this launch, hoping to capture a larger share of the $11.6 billion jeans market. "Some [retailers] have indicated by action they are reducing some of the positioning of the regular Levi's business," said Harry Bernard, exec VP-chief marketing officer for retail consultant Colton Bernard. "When [Levi Strauss customers shopping at JC Penney's or Sears] decide they can get what they want at Wal-Mart, I believe some of them will disappear," he said.
Federated Department Stores' Macy's already has cut back on its Levi's product, dropping its women's lines, a spokeswoman for the retailer said. Other retailers are not making changes. A Sears, Roebuck & Co. spokeswoman said "Whatever Levi's does with Wal-Mart will not have any effect on us." A spokeswoman for Levi's biggest customer, JC Penney, which accounts for 12% or $496.4 million of Levi's $4.14 billion in sales, did not return calls seeking comment by deadline. Levi Strauss declined comment until a date closer to launch.
All the wrangling comes amid some good news for the national brand retailers who have long lost market share to private-label and designer brands. The NPD Group's NPD Fashionworld reports that for the year ending in April 2003, sales for national brands are up 7.5% from the previous year, compared with a drop of 5.6% for private-label jeans and 10.4 % drop in sales from designer competition.
Jury still out
Despite the huge sales volume potential for Levi Strauss, Mr. Bernard, believes "the jury is still out" on whether Signature will further erode Levi Strauss' financials by moving core customers to the lower-priced Wal-Mart product. "My prediction: It's not going to be good."
Even the media launch for the line has created some debate. The San Francisco-based Premier Retail Network, founded in 1993, is a private company backed by a number of media-related firms such as GE Capital, owned by General Electric Co. Its monitors are in 5,400 stores, including Wal-Mart, Circuit City, Best Buy and Kroger Co.'s Ralphs supermarkets. Mark Mitchell, PRN's exec VP-sales, says Wal-Mart customers alone offer 145 million viewership impressions per month, about the length of time the spots will run. He called the buy "efficient" because it reaches only the audience Wal-Mart is targeting.
But Brad Adgate, senior VP-director of research, Horizon Media, New York, questioned whether customers, especially those with children, pay attention to the spots because they "are not there to watch TV."
Interpublic Group of Cos.' Foote, Cone & Belding Worldwide, San Francisco, the agency for Levi Strauss' Dockers brand, created the TV spots. B.A.R.C. Communications, San Francisco, handles in-store promotions. Toth Brand Advertising, Concord, Mass., is Wrangler's agency.

William Lee Plunket, 5th Baron Plunket, GCMG, GCVO, KBE (19 December 1864 – 24 January 1920) was a British diplomat and administrator. He was Governor of New Zealand from 1904-10.
Early life[edit]
Born in Dublin, he was educated at Harrow and Trinity College Dublin. His parents were William, 4th Lord Plunket, the archbishop of Dublin in 1884-97, and his wife Anne, the daughter of Sir Benjamin Guinness.[1]
He entered the Diplomatic Service and was sent to Rome in 1889 as an attaché to the British Embassy there. In 1892, he was appointed in the same position to the embassy in Constantinople, and finally retired two years later.
Having succeeded his father as fifth Baron Plunket in 1897, Plunket three years later became private secretary to Lord Cadogan, Lord Lieutenant of Ireland at the time, and fulfilled the same role for his successor Lord Dudley, when he was appointed to the position in August 1902.[2] He was appointed CVO and KCVO in 1900 and 1903 respectively, and in 1904 he became Governor of New Zealand as well as a KCMG the following year. By chance the Speaker of the New Zealand House of Representatives at the time was his cousin Arthur Guinness. He held this post until 1910, when he was advanced to GCMG.[3] He was later appointed KBE in 1918.
He was a Freemason. During his term as Governor of New Zealand (1906-1909), he was also Grand Master of New Zealand's Grand Lodge.[4]
Lord Plunket died on 24 January 1920 aged 55 in 40 Elvaston Place, London, and was buried in the city's Putney Vale Cemetery.[1]
Plunket married, in 1894, Lady Victoria Alexandrina Hamilton-Temple-Blackwood, youngest daughter of the 1st Marquess of Dufferin and Ava, by whom he was to have eight children.[1][5] Victoria gave her name to Plunket Society, a New Zealand society promoting the health and well-being of mothers and children.[6]

I had their sushi bento box ($13.25) last time:
And it was almost too much food! And for so cheap, too~ a person can get crap sushi in DC for so much more money than this.
My Experience:
I woke up late today so I decided to just walk to Sushi Taro without eating breakfast, which took about 15 minutes. Sushi Taro is located on top of the CVS at the intersection of 17th Street NW and P St NW. Normally people would just pass by it because it is such a small sign, especially since it is on top of another store.
I was seated promptly, as there weren't that many people at the restaurant. I was asked to eat at the bar, however, because I was a single diner. I had fun staring at the Japanese sakes while waiting for the food. The waitress was friendly, and refilled my tea when I needed it (unlike some other DC restaurants that even charge for the tea! Sushi Taro tea was free ^^)
Since I had the bento box last time, I decided to get the Bara Chirashi Set ($18) since I didn't know what Chirashi was (I just wikipedia'd it), and because it was expensive I thought it had to be good.
The set came with chawanmushi (which I have eaten before, but of which I didn't know the name):
And also with miso soup:
The miso tasted kind of funny, though. Anyway, the chirashi came and I was shocked. It was huge!
Like the "jewel box" the website described it as, it really was filled with all sorts of goodies - from tuna to unagi to sponge cake to salmon roe, it had everything! Well, except for the vegetables the description mentioned.
And I took a picture of the napkin, because I am weird like that. They have really nice napkins with a really cool logo. Legitly Japanese ;)
Price Range: $$
For a sushi restaurant, the price is actually not too high. The daily special contains loads of stuff and only costs $12 including two side dishes (today's was fried shrimp curry, but I didn't feel like eating fried things). It really depends on how much one wants to spend on lunch, since all the items on the menu are enough to satisfy one's lunch cravings.Environment: 4.5/5 - awesome
As for dinner, it gets more complicated. Sushi Taro is known for its kaiseki dinners which cost $75+ per person. I want to try it, but it's just awkward eating such a fancy dinner by myself even though I'm the type of person who would go any length for good food.
Clean, classy, nice decor. I'm giving it a "great" rating because though dress code is casual, the restaurant has that classy Japanese joint feel and is not populated by ignorant non-sushi eaters (well, the guy sitting next to me asked for a spoon for the miso... you just don't drink miso with a spoon...) and actually has Japanese people eating there, which means the stuff is legit. Waiters/tresses are courteous. Though the restaurant isn't that big, its small size makes the space feel cozy and personal, and the tempo is slowed down because of that. Overall, I like the feel of the restaurant.Food: 5/5 - nomworthy
First time seeing me use "nomworthy," eh? Well, it's nomworthy because it's really good! The fish was really fresh (well, if I don't say anything bad about it tomorrow it means I didn't die, so wait till tomorrow), the presentation is beautiful, it came with side dishes (I love those), and the portion was really reasonable for the amount paid.Overall: 5/5 - nomworthy
The bento box I had last time was really good, too! Lots of variety for such a small sum! I had a taiyaki for dessert last time, and it tasted good, albeit a bit dry. Finally, the tea was complimentary which is a plus because DC Asian joints are cray cray for charging money for tea!
Certainly the best Japanese restaurant I have visited since coming to DC (believe me - I've gone to at least 5 "Japanese" restaurants and this is the only authentic one with authentic Japanese people who make the food - even the front desk lady speaks Japanese!). I look forward to eating at Sushi Taro again, hopefully for a kaiseki meal.
