Open Letter to Bun Lai and Miya's Sushi
Friday, July 28, 2006
Dear Bun,
I would like to thank you for the magical evening. We have had so many together, but paradoxically, each seems to be unique and special. Upon reflection, this is the magic of a night at Miya's with Bun Lai presiding as sorcerer.
Goethe once wrote that "one ought, everyday at least, to hear a little song, read a good poem, see a fine picture, and, if it were possible, to speak a few reasonable words." Though I feel some trepidation in amending such fine words from such a supremely perceptive man, I dare say that Goethe, if he ever dinned at Miya's, would have included "to eat a lovely meal, and pass time with a beautiful soul," to his requisites for a good day. Not many bring such goodness into the world for others to experience and take into their lives. It is the combination of a rare gift and creative energy. You should know this.
