eating out with nancy

I recently took an exam to get licensed in CA. Afterward, Nancy suggested a mid-week celebration at Tantalum, a hip Asian fusion restaurant tucked into a corner of a strip mall. You walk through a dimly lit exhibition of old rickshaws and other Asian paraphernalia, and before you know it, there is a view of the Marina and a gorgeous sunset. The beer list was nice (although no Asian beers), and the food was delicious!Beef short rib sliders and saucy calamari.Spicy tuna tartar with avocado and housemade black sesame crackers.
Not pictured, but delicious, was the crispy tofu udon.
