WIN A CRUISE

SUSHI FOR JAPANESE RELIEF

Normally when there's a global disaster Americans come through with the red, white, and blue and donate, donate, donate. As a fellow American, I'm urging you to follow the crowd. But, while you serve your fellow man, why not be served a succulent plate of sushi. Seriously.  Through May 17, Fujiya Japanese Restaurant is donating 20 percent of proceeds to the Red Cross to benefit Japanese earthquake and tsunami victims. So, drop by 1125 Court C in Tacoma and rid yourself of guilt by giving to others and eating a healthy and amazing meal.
