Dear St.Pierre's Sushi Fraser Cove

I have been to your restaurant many times because sushi is my favorite food but I have one problem... THE PRICE!!! I think that the price should come down in price. At the moment they are about $12 for six pieces.

Why go the an overpriced Sushi Restaurant when you can go buy and make your own at half price.
So if you want more customers down your price and keep up the great taste.

What I would like you to do is lower the price by about 1/4 nd most definitely keep the delicious flavour.

Yours Sincerely
OliverI
