 | Kamado's Sushi on Bennington - Closed? - Unobtanium on 5/10/13 at 3:40 pm
Was told by the manager they would be closed for "remodeling". Passed by today and the building is up for sale.
Anyone know if one of their sushi chef - Henry - landed somewhere else in Baton Rouge? He makes good rolls and is a nice guy.
Thanks to the F&DB....

Bump to thank everyone for their input, which appears to fall into one of the following categories:
1. Backup cameras, like much of today's technology, make my life easier and are worth the added cost.

Any of you with factory backup/rear view cameras:
- how useful are they?
- is their field of view good enough for trailer hook-up?
I'm thinking about installing a retrofit kit on my Silverado. Thanks for the info....
