Southern Sushi (Pet Peeve Alert)
Mon, 09/14/2009 - 13:12 — fbogusThe Carolina Inn Roll sounds really interesting (wonder if we could get a recipe?) but what's a "Cruncy Roll" (sic)? I hate it when restaurants don't proofread their on-line menus. The typo could easily be an oversight but to me it says there's a lack of attention to detail that may carry over into other areas.
