Blue C Sushi opens in Newport Beach!

BLUE C SUSHI OPENS IN NEWPORT BEACH

When parents go a field trip without their children it is called DATE NIGHT!   Date nights are very important to a couple’s relationship.  They help mom and dad reconnect with one another and spend quality time together without all the distractions of everyday life.

Last Monday night, I had the privilege of attending a blogger event hosted by Eating Around SoCal at Blue C Sushi in Newport Beach. 

This was the perfect opportunity for me to scout out a new date night location for my husband, Mr. Socal Field Trips, and I.  Especially since Mr. SoCal Field Trips loves sushi!

From the restaurant’s website, “Blue C Sushi celebrates the innovative designs, trends and pop culture found in modern day Tokyo.  Our restaurants are vibrant, entertaining and interactive.  Our proprietary tracking technology – with an RFID chip embedded in each plate – lets us monitor every item on our delivery belt, tracking how long it’s been on display and alerting the chefs when it’s time to refresh.”

Blue C Sushi in Newport Beach is the restaurant’s third location in California.  Blue C Sushi originally started in Washington state with six restaurants.  Now they have a total of nine locations on the west coast and plans are underway to open their tenth restaurant in Tarzana, CA in the Spring 2015.

Blue C Sushi’s menu offers a vast array of fresh and appetizing entrees.  We sampled a variety of attractive dishes that went around and around the delivery belt as we sat at our table.

Blue C Sushi also has a very fun and energetic vibe about it.  Simply watching the chefs prepare the food, and then put it on the delivery belt, was entertainment in and of itself!

Some of the entrees we sampled that night from the delivery belt were:

Next we ordered a few entrees from Blue C Sushi’s prepared menu including the crispy chicken, spicy edamame, vegetable tempura and udon noodle soup.

The spicy edamame was sautéed in garlic, chili and soy sauce.  It was such a rare seasoning combination, that I commented to my friends that it was the best edamame I had ever tasted.

Blue C Sushi’s vegetable tempura was crispy and delightful to the palette.  It reminded me of my time in Japan when I use to sing professionally and travel extensively.  Often times after a concert, I would go out for dinner with friends and order tempura at a local Japanese restaurant.  Blue C Sushi’s tempura is just as good.

Mr. SoCal Field Trip’s favorite Asian dish is udon noodle soup.  For sure, he will be satisfied with Blue C Sushi’s superb version of this classic dish when we visit in the future.

After dinner, we rounded out our meal with dessert.  We savored upon Blue C Sushi’s green tea mocha ice cream and shaved ice with seasonal berries, pineapple, mint with flavored syrup and condensed milk.

All in all, I highly recommend Blue C Sushi as a wonderful place for a date night and to enjoy a delicious Japanese meal with your spouse.

Happy Field Tripping,

Jilleen
