R.I.P. Banzai

With the recent opening of Oishi Sushi House, Austin's first full-out sushi buffet, we are reminded that budget sushi is still sushi,and that's a good thing. [Veteran Austin Sushi News readers know that the *first* all-you-can-eat sushi buffet in Austin was offered at the now-defunct sushi bar that was inside of
Buffet Palace North, complete with floating wooden boats]

With that in mind, we now mourn the first sushi casualty of 2002: Banzai Japanese Restaurant, a staple for budget-minded University-area sushi eaters, has bit the dust.
