Like our nightlife writer Brittney Cason has said, there is currently an Asian invasion in Charlotte.

Restaurants serving up Asian cuisine are popping up everywhere Uptown. Basil showed up earlier this year at the corner of Church and 5th Street serving up tasty Thai dishes. IndoChine Grill with Vietnamese fare opened its doors at the EpiCentre in the spring. Room 112 made a sly appearance as the summer began dishing out sushi at the corner of Trade and Tryon streets.  Then there was Enso at the EpiCentre in August. And Fiji Sushi Bar & Lounge on 5th Street opens up tonight!

For this 24-hour Blog-o-thon today, I'll be rolling through town on a sushi sampling tour.

Stuffing my face with signature rolls from a handful sushi restaurants sounds like a fabulous day to me. If cruising through Charlotte sampling foods is your idea of fun, you should join us on our first Eat My Charlotte Foodie Tour on Nov. 7. We'll bus you around town to sample authentic tacos at taquerias on South Boulevard. Get more info here.

And I'm off...
