Japanese brunch.What
Would it be? Sushi or more?
The WBC knows.

Abis has Sunday brunch. Abis is a Japanese restaurant. I wonder what Sunday brunch means…
Well, it means what you are probably thinking it means. It is a buffet of random Japanese food offerings, although nicer than the local Chinese buffet.
There is the sushi, freshly made by the two sushi guys behind the counter, constantly replenishing as we filled our plates with samplings of each roll.
There’s the hot foods, complete with Shrimp tempura, pork gyoza and fried rice.
And there’s fruit, banana tempura and miso soup.
Since this was not normally a buffet establishment, I appreciated the restraint on the offerings and the clean, well spaced presentation. I also appreciated the two sushi guys hand making each roll to be replenished. At least it wasn’t something pre-made and stored in the fridge. Plus there was variety in the rolls, not just boring California or tuna rolls, but mostly of the creative type.
The czar says: The food overall was good. Not mind blowing amazing, but for brunch buffet, I approve.
The price was $20, which isn’t bad. I definitely ate my fair share of sushi, gyoza and tempura!
