    Sushi?

    Just wondering what you order when you go to a sushi restaurant? If you chose other please explain which

    I typically order the kani (Crab), ebi (Shrimp), tuna and salmon nigiri(Bite sized sushi on rice) with tuna and salmon maki(Roll with rice on the inside not outside), sometimes I get the B.C. or alaska rolls Sashimi is really really good also but I only eat the salmon or tuna ones as anything else is a really wierd texture

    As for other, the sunomono(Lemon juice, noodles and a protein) is good along with some fried gyoza(pork dumplings) and salmon belly Robata(BBQ) Agedashi tofu is amazing but can have a weird texture at times Oh and I recently tried ika karaage (Kalamari)

    What do you eat, and are you a fan of sushi?

    I had sushi for the first time last Friday, and wow....it was weird! I don't know the names of the things I tried, though. So I'll describe them as best I can. I only tried two things. Otherwise I had broccoli and terryaki chicken. (Which was AWESOME there. )

    Anyway, I tried something that had shrimp in it....I think my friend said it was fried or something, and it was in a roll... That one wasn't half bad.

    The other thing I tried had EEL in it. Eel, avocado, rice, and some sort of root? I don't think it was cooked. Anyway, that one was AWFUL! I almost gagged right there at the table. But BAH!! Not only was the taste not good, but the TEXTURE was HORRIBLE! OMB! It was not something I'd try again! LOL. No way... Anyway, I can definitely vouch for the terryaki chicken there!

      Ew...I can feel the slimy texture of the sushi you had in my mouth, Escape Girl... I think you had one of those California rolls...

      Mixing eel and avocado in a form of food should be a punishable offense in my book! like, first degree food abuse or something.

      But I like some sushi...like one with custard like egg on it and just plain tuna piece on it. Those are good

                I think you had a caterpillar roll. Never tried that one btw.

                  I remember them talking about that when they were deciding what to order. I don't know for sure that's what they ordered, but I do remember it mentioned. I'll be sure to steer clear from that one. Thanks.

                    I usually get a sashimi platter at the sushi restaurant at least once a month. I am partial to unagi (eel) as well.

                              My favorite sushi is only available seasonally. During the Seattle Mariner's season, they have a sushi place at Safeco Field where you can get an Ichi-Roll, (a play on words after our outfielder, Ichiro Suzuki).
                              Don't forget you are awesome.
