Mootones Sushi - $10.65

Another man date with TC today, this time we decided to continue our experimentation with more quality lunch establishments.  Ty made the superb suggestion we grab some sushi so we hit up Mootones in Andover.  I ordered the L7, which was a luncheon combo that included 6 pieces of spicy tuna maki, 6 pieces of california maki, and 6 pieces of sweet potato maki, as well as a bowl of white rice (substituted instead of a salad) and a bowl of miso soup.  All for $10.65 (including tax).  Pretty damn good right?  Well it was, especially the spicy tuna maki and sweet potato maki, they were fantastic.  The tuna was very fresh I could tell by the color and the spicy sauce they used was great, although I am pretty sure all sushi places use the same recipe now..... The sweet potato maki was great, it was just like tempora but in maki form, and they were fresh and crunchy and when dipped in soy sauce really soaked up that flavor too.  The california maki was also good, but just didnt stand out as compared to the other too.  The miso soup was also delicious, and white rice is white rice.

A word to the wise, try to get the luncheon special unless you MUST have something else.  Tyler ordered 2x Andover Maki 16 pieces in total, and while it was really good (yes Tyler let me have one, a 1 for 1 trade, for one of my Spicy Tuna Maki's) it was 3 times as expensive!!!  Anyway, I do recommend the Andover Maki if you got the cash!
