Sushi


I find myself eating this more and more. I think it's pretty good for you since fish has good fats in it, plus it just tastes so good!

Anyone else eat sushi? What's your favorite kind? A few days ago I had this spicy roll that was pretty great. Not sure exactly what sort of fish was in it, but that little extra spice made it fantastic. Not a fan of wasabi though. Shit's nasty.

There's still lots of different types of sushi and rolls that I havent tried yet though. They look kind of intimidating sometimes.

I was a holdout on sushi for quite a long time despite loving seafood. I really got into it a few years ago and I love it. The only reason I don't have it all the time is the price, I don't eat take out very often. I've tried alot of different kinds and most are pretty good. More wasabi the better.

i love it. i go nuts with the sushi. when we lived in nyc, we'd eat it twice a week. now, i don't trust amish country sushi. sorry. i don't fuck with rolls or sushi rice much any more, mostly just sashimi. right now i like salmon and yellowtail the most. on the cooked tip, eel is also the bomb. sardine is better than expected, while giant clam is among the nastiest things i've ever eaten (shoulda know by the name, right?!). i can also throw down some seaweed salad.

moron, what's your favorite spot? when you get back from your honeymoon, i wanna take you to my joint, funayama on greenwich.





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

I never ate at a sushi restaurant before I moved here. I went to one here with people from work and I thought there would be nothing for me, but there is a surprisingly large selection of vegetarian stuff and it is amazingly good. If it wasn't for the price I would eat there quite frequently.

I don't eat seafood at all but reading this maybe I would be open to the vegetarian meals. Tire, if you remember hit me up with a spot my girl might like that sick ass shit. Cook your food people, thousands of years ago our ugly ass kin invented fire to woo cave bitches and eat steak. Duane, eel? That's fucking sick dude. I was at this fancy ass place on Sat. (Tan - Gerine) and first my girl and her friend got calamari (sick, no matter how much you fry it, it's fucking squid) then my girl ordered some crazy whole fish and this fucking sick ass thing is looking at me the whole time and when were almost done the waiter was like ("OH MY GOD!!!!! They where supposed to take that off!") Gee thanks. Fucking seafood is gross.

Love the sushi, I think the spicey you had might have been tuna Big D? Sound right? I too dig on the salmon, havent had the yellowtail but will try. My wife totally turned me on to it. As far as vegetarian I highly recommend the vegtarian or cucumber roll, can't go wrong with either and Miso soup is so damn good we named our dog after it.

California rolls are vegetarian, and are so damn good. Miso soup is vegetarian too, and you're right about it being tasty as well. My friends at first told me it was nasty so I avoided it, but I tried it for the first time a few weeks back and it was great! What's in that? Seaweed and tofu? Something like that.

Duane, there are a few places in my neighborhood, but Ive been going to this one new place for the past few weeks. I actually ate there with the Mrs. on July 4th. Talk about a patriotic meal! haha I actually had my first sushi in a place in Middletown, CT near where my friends live.

And of course Im game for some sushi with you when I return! We'll work out those details a bit later.

Fish is meant to be rolled in beer batter and fried in the fat of another animal, and then rolled in newspaper and THEN consumed. If you really need some vitamins, there is a lemon wedge, people.

Brian, I am ashamed of you.:(




Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

careful, california rolls aren't always veg. i think they often have "crab stick", which, while not actually crab, is still fish. it's pollock made to look like crab.

moron, hit me up when you get back, and we'll do up funayama. it's a neighborhood joint, nothing fancy. very reasonably priced with huge pieces of fresh fish. the chef used to work at yama sushi on irving, but opened his own place.

juan, as for philly, i don't really know any good neighborhood places. my wife and i went to morimoto (of iron chef fame) a while ago. it was amazing, but wicked expensive. and while they do have sushi there, it costs so much, it's not worth it. you go there for the obscure japanese entrees.

in the western suburbs, teikoku on rt.3 in newtown square is good. that's not too far from you, right? Shangrila in devon is definitely the best i've had in the area, though. reasonable prices, wide selection of sushi as well as unique japanese and chinese dishes. plus, the building used to be a denny's, which just kills me.

Are you planning on coming to this tiny assed town? I'll be happy to tell you where to go if so, but unless you're big into skiing or tourist shit I can't imagine why you would come here.
