Lee first introduced me to Heathen Apostles at the Cafe Nela show on February 13. He knew I would love them and he is friends with Mather. Well, he was right. I love them! And it turns out we license their music through Rescue Records. Heathen Apostles played an amazing set at Cafe Nela, absolutely amazing. But I was without camera and so I wanted to go see them again at The Echo. It was a shorter set this time but here are the photos! More to come because I have 12 undeveloped frames that I shot on my Rollei. I also had my CD autographed by the band! Yay! Thank you!

Masa Tsuzuki invited me over today to his new restaurant masacasa in Eagle Rock.
I was served authentic home cooked Japanese food.

Salad
House Green Salad (seasonal vegetables from Yasutomi Farm)

Omusubi
Ume (Plum)
Konbu (Kelp)
Hijiki (Seaweed and Vegetable)
Gyu Soboro (Ground Beef with Teriyaki Sauce)

Sozai
Tofu (yakko)
Kabocha
Gomaae Spinach
Hijiki
Potato Salad

Entree
Chicken Teriyaki with rice and miso soup

And this is only a small part of the menu!

The dishes are flavorful, delicious, aromatic, and hits home right in your heart.

Complementing my dining experience are
the floor to ceiling soft yellow walls which will exhibit local artists’ paintings,
the geometric lights,
the rustic antique wood floors,
and the melodic beats of jazz and blues.

The Grand Opening should be next week…
Follow Masa and Masacasa on Facebook for the announcement!

Here is another review from Masacasa Facebook page:

Hey everyone. We just happened to stroll in to Masacasa last night! Although they aren’t quite open just yet, they were having a “test run” with friends and family. Fortunately they invited us in to take part! We ordered the Chicken Teriyaki, Chicken Katsu, and Chicken Curry. They were all wonderful. Their prospective menu looks to be nice and simple offering japanese starters, a couple different types of sushi rolls and several main dishes. The main dishes come with brown rice, garden salad, potato salad, and miso soup. Their grand opening will be at the end of this month. Thank you Masa for the wonderful meals. We will be back often!
