Nigiri-style o-nagi substitutes seared catfish for unagi ($6.50), and specialty rolls include the tempura-fried Coco-Loco, which blends spicy albacore with pineapple and cream cheese ($11.50). The vegan-spice house roll consists of deep-fried japanese eggplant and yam along with baked tofu and yellow curry ($9). Udon or soba soups with chicken, shrimp, and veggies make for sippable entrees (up to $15). Click here and here to view menus.

Geisha Sushi

The net of Geisha Sushi's culinary concerns stretches far beyond the fish on its plates. Its first priority is sustainable seafood—fish caught or farm raised with systems that don't harm the surrounding ecology. The kitchen partners with the nonprofit FishWise to help find environmentally conscious examples of oceanic fare, many of which hail from local waters, such as Monterey Bay. The sushi menu thus contains alternatives to diminished sushi sources. For example, the o-nagi nigiri replaces unagi (eel) with seared namazu, a farm-raised catfish. The selections listed on the specials board change seasonally, weekly, and daily as natural conditions shift, but their origins, catch methods, and high-school GPAs are always displayed for guests' perusal.

The staffers’ conscientious culinary commitments extend to their catalog of organic, fair-trade teas, which arrive at tables by the pot in the hands of kimono-wearing servers. In addition to marine morsels, vegan and vegetarian rolls wrap up ingredients such as crushed pineapple, coconut, and baked tofu. Spherical lanterns illuminate the entrees on each table as well as the decorative, blossoming tree that draws eyes toward a backdrop of arched windows.

The Groupon Guide to: Bettering Yourself

Everyone starts as a blank canvas, but fortunately, life provides us with all the colors needed to paint a masterpiece. Here are some things you can do every week to fulfill your destiny as a painting metaphor:

  • Make a new recipe. Mixing different kinds of cereal together counts.

  • Read a kind of book you wouldn't normally read. Maybe the instruction book for a vacuum you no longer own, or if you don't have any books, staple a bunch of menus together and say that's a book.

  • Quit a bad habit. We all love waking up in the middle of the night to break every single one of our dishes, but when you think about it, is it really doing us any good?

  • Get involved in your community. See which of your neighbors leave their doors unlocked and surprise them by spilling one of your new cereal recipes all over their floor.

  • Exercise. Chase every animal you see. They would do it to you if they had the guts.

Can two different kinds of cereal in one bowl lead to a better you?
