Take any decent sit down restaurant, you are paying $15-30 per person for appetizers. drinks are like $5+ each so each person has a $15-20 drink tab, main course will run between $30-80 per person, desert is another $15-20. It all adds up. It's a matter of perspective. If you consider the demographics of people who visit a StarCraft 2 site and the fact that $170 can buy a month's worth of food for a single person in many first-world nations, then spending that much money on a single meal does seem rather extravagant. Restaurants aren't exclusively divided into "fast food" and "decent sit-down restaurants" either. Good restaurants can be found at a wide range of prices depending on what they're serving. | ||

What's the difference, tastewise, between the aji and sawara? Here in L.A. I am used to seeing aji labeled as Spanish mackerel, and what you have listed as aji is the same as what I've seen. Not sure I've ever seen sawara on a sushi menu here. | ||

Like here in Germany you can get a great meal in a traditional German Restaurant for like 20€. (With drink) But thanks for those awsome pics! it really looks delicious. I bet those 130€ were worth it for you. | ||

Master Sushi chefs are amongst the worlds elite in their culinary abilities, and are just as respected as any other form of chef. | ||

I really wan tto visit japan and feast on sushi. I think im gonna have to go get sushi for tea! I am addicted to mackerel and eel post moar ... if i ever get to visit these blogs will be invaluable. As for $80 on food? I regularly spend £80+ with the missus if we find somewhere that does great food. You ever tried getting *really* fresh fish in manchester? Don't bother, its all at least half a day old. Its so hard to find food that the chef has time to care about - and puts food before inappropiate presentation (tiny arranged morsel on a fancy plate when you ordered steak for instance) | ||

The difference between good sushi and the crap you get in a lot of NA restaurants is astronomical. I hate spending a lot of money on food as a student and as someone that tries to live as practically as possible, but I'd rather have no sushi than bad sushi moreso than any other food, so if I find a good place then I will be willing to pay good money for it. I'm only going to have it like once a year. But the best seafood for me is by the ocean in Korea. Dongdongju and hoe in the afternoon is great. | ||
