HAIR IN MY FOOD? WHAT?

So I have never left a review for anything I just either dont think it was that bad or that good to go through the trouble. But I thought people should know what they are getting themselves into when they eat at Zen. I understand that somethings are fluke they happen to people sometimes but i dont think this is the case. I tried Zen yesterday not really expecting anything great, just cheap and fast. I am not a good food critic I dont really care as long as it isnt that bad but even looking at the sushi you can see that the edges are dry and the avacado was turning brown but i thought oh well just get it and pray you dont get food p****** so I got the sushi. I go to take a bite and see a hair it kind of looks like mine so i go to pull it off and the whole roll unravels practically (OMG) So then I see another one and the same thing happens so i take it up front and get the Dashi Bowl and when I finally get it (after 10 Minutes of the two white guys up front looking at me like i am an idoit and the two MEXICAN cooks in the back looking at me like a piece of meat) I just leave and take it home it wasnt terrible but i had to pick all the broccoli out because it was way undercooked (probably because the mexican cooks were not paying attention) And the salmon was a little salty I ate what i could and Vowed to never return. I can not stress enough how much it takes to send me running for the hills but they certainly did it. MY opinion is that I am glad if you have had good experiences but common sense tells me that most are bad with Mexican cooks (No Offense but if i want mexican food i am not going to be satisfied with a japanese cook either) and No one in there of asian decent.
