I admit I love food, especially foreign foods. Above all though, I love Asian food so when I stopped in at Hakata’s in Silverdale, I was duly impressed with the quality as well as the nice selection of their menu items. The food is really good but the service operates on an “we’ll get to you when we can” system. Don’t take it personally because everyone gets the same treatment.

The nice thing about Japanese cuisine is that it is very healthy for you and you don’t end up with a bloated feeling at the end of it all. My friend had a teriyaki dish that she had to take home with her because it was too much of her (lite eater) while I had a donburi which is a rice bowl with meat and vegetables on top.
