But if you’re American, happen to be near the intersection of Piedmont and Echo in Oakland while hungry for sushi, Shimizu is a sure bet.

We looked at each other for two seconds then at her.
But we asked the girl what’s on anyway, and she listed, if I remember correctly in my post-food stupor, “tempura ice cream, green tea ice cream, red bean ice cream, green tea cheesecake, seven flavors of mochi ice cream, which includes mango, vanilla, strawberry, green tea, red bean, coffee and chocolate”. When the girl took up our empty sushi plates and asked if we wanted dessert, we were already stuffed, which is a given every time Kristen and I go out together. Good thing we each had a different favorite. Kristen: I usually don’t like strawberry flavors, but this strawberry one is so good…
Mai: It is! I like the green tea the most though, it’s so refreshing. One very cold Saturday afternoon in Oakland.ĭarren: Normally I don’t like fruit flavored stuff, like watermelon candies you know?ĭarren: But this mango ice cream is really good!
