Spicy tuna. California is popular if you like avocado. Rainbow is good. Never really tried beauty and the beast because I'm not a fan if eel.

Spicy tuna seconded

by LoneWolfSparty 2014-12-12, 20:34

Ahi tuna is phenomenal.

I like Sashimi with my Sushi for the same reason that I like riding my mountain bike to the top of the highest hill around and then putting blind faith in my brakes.

Mentioned I was stopping at Noble Fish in Clawson (Noble is awesome) to pick up sushi & sashimi after work. A co-worker said he never had sushi so I offered to pick up a tray of spicy tuna rolls for the next day.

Guy ate one roll and put the rest in the microwave. Complete fucking idiot.

Pfff. Idiots.

Work yourself in slowly, and you'll soon learn it's among the greatest foods on the planet, sometimes the greatest. Just order a lot of different things and figure out what you like. Many places have a boat or mixed deal that is good value.

A spicy tuna roll was mentioned above - it's simple, usually not very spicy - pair it with a regular tuna roll. I like to have about 1/4 to 1/3 of my rolls spicy. Skip the California roll and look for an eel avocado roll - sounds scary but wonderful. Can be built up into a dragon roll, then with shrimp tempura etc., it starts awesome and gets better and better. You can cheaply try out all sorts of rolls from there, yellowtail, salmon, crab, etc. etc.

All you need to do is order a bunch of strange shit once and figure out what you like. It doesn't have to be expensive either, most restaurants have good lunch deals, and they're usually the cheapest places to drink in town. My local place has an awesome lunch special that's almost cheaper than eat at McDonalds.

Sushi guy. Okay man, I get it. It's fucking manna from heaven.

For those squeamish about eating raw fish I suggest starting with a ceviche or gravlox. Both are cured and delicious. Ceviche is a quick cure. Gravlox takes a couple days in the fridge

The best sushi is all can eat sushi.

by **Turtleneck** 2014-12-13, 11:21

I don't eat sushi cuz it ain't american. Give me cheese whiz or melted velveeta all over anything.

You can do that when you've owned 90% of countries at some point in time. You seem to love British TV chefs over her though. . .

Tempura California roll, morans.

I have no idea what the name of the roll was when I was in Manilla, but it was awesome. Sorry that's not much help, but in Asia the rolls are different than in the US.

You started the thread and are now calling us morans over a sushi roll that has no raw element? As was mentioned earlier, grow a pair.

Have you ever tongued a ~~clit~~ clam? Sashimi tastes at least 100x better

You pretty much nailed why I don't eat sushi anymore. Had some sushi at lunch, went to the Lincoln Center to see Mozart's Jupiter that night and like a scene right out of Seinfeld, during the climax of the piece i got very queasy...ran to the toilet and barfed/explosive shit at the same time. Honestly, I think I just had a winter bug that caused the illness and not the sushi but haven't had a taste for the stuff since then.

by **The Pantry** 2014-12-14, 22:00

I've had sort of the same experience with a laced joint and white chocolate. Not at the same time

I once had sort of the same experience after splitting a pint of schnapps and a fifth of Bacardi 151 with a friend. Never had much of taste for either since.

Haha I love sushi, but I won't touch Unagi and I've eaten some weird shit.

Its so damn good. Does it just bother you because it's eel ?

by **GirbaudJeans** 2014-12-14, 22:54

If any of you are ever in Austin and love sushi go to Uchi or Uchiko and dont order, just tell the waitress to bring the chef recommendations. You will get things you would normally never order and they are amazing. Uchi is pretty well known as one of the best sushi restaurants in the country.

Flavor is not that great IMO. Pain in the ass to clean...too many bones and not enough meat
