Some Fun Around Town

Happy Wednesday! We are getting closer to Fri-yay! Plus, we're coming up to a 3 day weekend! :)

Although life has been crazy busy, but I have been able to check out a couple new places around town lately!

Nama:

Recently, my friend Jamie took me downtown to have sushi for dinner at Nama! It was my first experience at Nama. The food was spectacular, but I learned not to order the apple sake ever again. Something about the sake was way off, but the FOOD was on point!
Instead we each ordered a glass of wine, split three appetizers and then split a soy joy roll and sesame beef. 

For our appetizers, we split the pork dumplings, cali roll (sweet crab, avocado and cucumber), and spring rolls.

Pork dumplings, cali roll, and spring rolls

Soy Joy

For the main course, we had the Soy Joy roll and sesame beef dish. The soy joy roll is spicy tuna, seared albacore, cucumber, tempura crunchies wrapped in soy paper, topped with fantasy sauce, eel sauce, wasabi mayo and scallions.

Jamie and I had such a fun time, and I will definitely go back for the incredible food! 


Breakout:

This past Saturday, we met up with our friends, Don & Dora, at Calhoun's for dinner, and then went to a place called "Breakout." 
Breakout is an extremely awesome, unique, and fun experience. Basically, you and your friends (family, coworkers, etc.) are in a certain themed escape room, where you have to try to solve riddles, puzzles, and more, to break out of the room in less than an hour. 

We did the Museum Heist! 


It was our first time trying it out and we all did really good as a team, but if we had just a little bit more time, I think we would have escaped! We were close! 
I was impressed at the level of riddles, codes, etc. that you had to figure out to find more clues. 
I highly recommend going to Breakout in Knoxville!
I absolutely had a blast and can't wait to go try out the other escape rooms!!
