Sushi

Food of the Gods.

A sushi bar just opened up a block from my work. Rice, raw (or cooked) fish, veggies. They're running a special right now, $4.00 for 12 pieces. Zero fat. Made while you watch. Loving it!

Ran 4 miles, am now eating raw food. Mmm. . . raw food. . . .

Sounds really good.I'm sure there are Sushi bars in Chicago.But I dont want to go downtown for that.

$4 for 12 pieces is awesome! What are they, California rolls? My favorites are California (crab and avacado), Tuna, and Alaska (salmon and avacado) rolls.

Nothing beats sushi.

The deal is for a combo to go: you can choose California rolls, shrimp and cucumber, ****y tuna rolls (raw tuna and seaweed), or smoked-eel rolls. I got three of each. The eel took some courage but it's not bad. Their pickled ginger is green, which is kinda weird, but it's good.

I'll be hitting it for lunch until they take the special away. They also have an organic green tea that only has 60 calories a bottle, very lightly sweetened, with a slight green apple flavor to it. Real nice. I'm feeling REALLY GOOD right now. I love how I feel after I eat healthy, clean food. It's like the engine is burning high octane.

Is sushi that good?Won't you get like worms or something from eating raw fish?

Heck, a tapeworm might help me make middleweight.

I always make Alaska sushi at home

I have a huge year supply of sushi rice.
I get the wraps in china town for pennies.
And I get hook ups on salmon.

My problem is that I eat 3 rolls in one meal.

3 rolls is about 18-22 peices.

So I usualy bust my ass making enough to last me 3 days or so

That's why you don't want eat at some shady sushi place. Generally, Japanese restaurants are very clean, and the fish and seafood are very fresh and are kept fresh. You won't get worms.

Believe it or not, a lot of Japanese restaurants and/or sushi bars in America are owned and operated by Koreans. Even the cooks are Koreans. Interesting huh?

I really like the house special in each sushi restaurant. My favorite is the Sadako Crunch Roll. It's so good but it's about $1.25 a pop.

Watch out hepatitis can be spread through that way...

I cant say I practice what I preach because Sushi is a vital part of my dieting majority of the time.

So eat it up, since it hasnt been sitting out all day...

All chinese places suck here they slap sushi on a cookie tray and put the tray over ice...It's usually warm.

I've been eating raw fish all my life.

I just laugh at the "western" obessesion with everything being so clean and ****..oh and cooked..

No **** ya'll so weak....eating something bad and "pepto to the rescue"...

When you are feed all this sterile stuff since your a child when you grow up you turn into this big ***** who gets sick from drinking tap water...


Good think I didnt grow up in Canada, cause Id be one of these "my tummy hurts" people too.

I can eat raw anything...can go to the shaddiest joint in China Town, eat till I drop, come home, go to a club, go to sleep, wake up and work then next day. Now so many of my buddies have near heart attacks from not eating something "sterile"...


Sorry for the rant, I jsut had to speak my mind.
