+ Show Spoiler [England vs Germany] +

England lost


This happened a while ago, on the 12th of June to be precise. The sushi shop is called "Sushi Dai", and it is widely regarded as one of the top three sushi shops in the inner market (the other two famous ones are Sushi Bun and Daiwa Sushi). Have finally eaten at all these of these shops, my consensus is that Sushi Bun has the best sushi, but Sushi Dai has the most welcoming environment (and they allow pictures!!) I took the first train there in the morning, and arrived at around 5:30, and there were already two lines formed for this shop: the second line being the line for the first line (yo dawg, I herd you like lines). Waited almost exactly three hours before finally seated at about 8:30, but I thought it was totally worth it because the sushi pieces were very cheap for their quality.

The menu, hard to see at the reduced resolution. 11 pieces for 3900 JPY.

This was the most interesting piece I had... ever. The surf clam was so fresh, even though it was already sliced up, some nerves were still alive. When the chef put lemon juice on the clam, it actually moved: mine clung tighter to the rice. Crazy.

I'm hungry, still 2 hours of work before i can leave. After reading your blog i'm starving T_T

The clam piece looks scary, i would have freaked out seeing it move.

I find sushi usually have a bland taste i wonder if the real thing from Japan is different?

Good sushi is very good. You can really taste the difference between fresh fish and typical supermarket fish.

You are, of course, entitled to share your opinion. However, many people would beg to differ this statement, and I encourage you to try better sushi restaurants.

Farm raised and frozen against fresh from the local fish markets in the morning.

Im not a big fan of sushi and sashimi makes me feel sick, cant handle the texture of raw fish.
Have you ever tried raw shrimp sushi? Specially the larger species.

I never had anything super large. Amai ebi is fairly common in sushi though.

Damn that looks good. The presentation itself is much better than most of the local (probably not authentic but still love it ) stuff I've seen.

Wow 3hrs wait. I'm glad you felt it was worth it though.

Cambium. A little trick me and mom do whenever we eat sushi is, we eat the "raw fish part" but we never eat the rice so that we have more room to eat more of the good expensive part so that we get our moneys worth. I mean who gives a hissy hoot about the rice? What do you think about this?

edit: btw that shiit looks so good..im jealous

The rice is part of the taste. Plus, who gets full on sushi? o.o

It sounds like you're talking about some sort of all-you-can-eat sushi places which will never have good sushi.
