ASIAN FUSION, 2840 Jamie Lane. Some might say there are too many sushi restaurants in Lincoln. Those people would be wrong. Asian Fusion isn’t new, but it’s new to me. I discovered it this year and found it to be an off-the-beaten-path option for my sushi cravings. The atmosphere and service are great, and it’s a good date night spot. It only got better when I discovered it has all-you-can-eat sushi on Sundays. Made to order. For $20. The price includes appetizers, nigiri, maki and specialty rolls. I went a few Sundays ago after my sister ran the half-marathon and needed endless sushi to fill her postrun appetite. I’ll be going back a lot now. — Emily Case
CHEZ BUBBA, 1234 May Street St., Goehner. I’m drawn to comfortable restaurant-bars where I like to think I could be a regular — someone who knows the people who work and eat at the restaurant, much like my years at Chances ‘R, where I worked while growing up in York. Chez Bubba in Goehner, 25 miles west of Lincoln, is one of those places. Its motto — "Kinda classy, Mostly Bubba" — fits. They’re known for barbecue, but they also serve a darn good burger and excellent prime rib (remember, I know my prime rib thanks to Chances R). The beer comes in quart jars, the desserts are homemade and it’s easy to imagine you grew up knowing everyone in the place. An added highlight of a recent visit was a stop on the way home at another favorite Seward County destination — Bottle Rocket Brewery. But I’ll save my beer review for another day. — Shelly Kulhanek
TAQUERIA EL REY, 116 S. 27th St. I haven't been here in way too long (read: weeks). Best tacos in town, but it's easy to miss — tucked behind a strip mall on the southeast corner of 27th and O streets. The dining room was recently expanded, making it more pleasant for a sitdown meal, but it's also fun to order carryout and take it to Sunken Gardens down the street. Just make sure the to-go containers end up in the garbage. — Zach Pluhacek
