Dining in the city: Sushi King, Downtown Norfolk

How many weekends have you spent trying to figure out what is there to do around your city. Mother nature has not been very kind to us with the frigid weather that we have been getting lately. With all of that being said, this weekend was reasonably warm in Hampton Roads so I took that opportunity to explore my city. Even though warm weather is a couple months away Downtown Norfolk still has some of the most amazing restaurants and it was my pleasure to stop in and pay the Sushi King Asian bistro & bar a visit. The Sushi King is a all you can eat sushi bar and the food & drinks are AMAZING!!



First thing I notices when I walked in was how well decorated it was, it was almost like it had two different feels to it. The perfect date night place or a night out with the girls.

The waiting area!

It's got such a city feel to it!

The food is so good. This is the Volcano rolls, they were amazing. 
I also tried the Shrimp Tempura, Hibachi Shrimp & Steak. Everything
they brought out seemed to taste amazing. 


Fully stocked bar with some great drinks, pictured below is the Cucumbertini 




At the end of your experience you can have a go at the drum they have in the foyer.
Overall my experience at this restaurant was great. Our waitress was hilarious and kept us laughing all night. If you are a sushi lover this is the place for you.

Maybelline's Fit me Matte + poreless foundation

Hello loves,

I am sure most of you are familiar with the Maybelline cosmetic line. Well they recently released Fit me Matte + poreless. This foundation claims to mattify & refine pores, match natural tone and have a natural seamless finish.


Personally I love the Maybelline cosmetic line, for it to be a drug store foundation it does a pretty good job. I have also tried the regular Fit Me foundation and for us OILY girls it is a NO GO! Maybelline must have heard our cry, because this matte formula is prefect. It is light weight, easy to apply, blends well and most importantly it keeps me SHINE FREE all day. This foundation also comes with a press powder (sold separately) that I have not tried, however I do have the regular fit me powder in the shade 360 that I use as a contour. This foundation retails for around $6.00.

I can say that I am very pleased with how this foundation wears. I made sure to put it through the test of a long work day and it absolutely stood the test of time. The only two things I can say about this foundation is that I am in the shade 355 and it goes on a little red to me, also I did not see that there was any shade darker than 355. Come on Maybelline you have to give it up for the dark skin beauties too....  Besides those two issues I have nothing but good things to say about this foundation.
