Eating Sushi 01
Do you like sushi? I really like eating sushi. This is a famous food of Japan, you know.
The other day my wife and I went to a sushi restaurant in a department store.
All fishes used where from Otaru, Hokkaido which is in the North of Japan. Fish from Hokkaido are very popular and delicious. The restaurant i went to was a Tokyo branch of a Hokkaido based restaurant.
My wife ordered a sushi set. There was less rice than other sushi which we often eat and the presentation was very beautiful. Moderately-fatty tuna which was red one and seasoned urchin eggs which was yellow one were my wife’s favorite. As you know, Japanese people eat one third of all the tuna in the world.
On the other hand, I ate “Chirashi Zushi” where many kinds of raw fish are put on vinegared rice. This was also beautiful and it was fun to try various fish.
We also ate a soup which tasted of shrimp.
The price of this sushi feast was so high that we have it occasionally as a reward for our daily hard works only
After we arrived home, my children were angry to hear that we ate sushi. So we had to take our kids to another sushi restaurant.
To be continued.



I love sushi.
My favourite is uni. ^^ Of course tuna is very good too. Yummy!
Oh, I also like uni which is creamy and tasty.
Sushi is starting to become more popular in South Africa. My ten year old daughter loves it and we always celebrate her birthday with a sushi meal. Last year we lived in Mozambique for a while and my husband and a friend went fishing. That evening we ate fresh sushini from their catch. It was the best we have ever had. The sushi you ate looks really elaborate. Far more beautifully presented than any that I have seen this side of the world.Thanks for your interesting post!
That’s really good that Sushi is popular in South Africa. Your daughter must be happy to eat it. Thanks for your comment. This sushi is better than usual one which we often eat.
A great Sushi cook made them.
I love sushi!
Is one of my favorite foods, but I bet it taste way better in a cute restaurant in Japan…
Thanks for liking sushi.
Restaurant in your country must be also good.
Beautiful dear Cocomino, well done, Thank you, with my love, nia
My pleasure. Thank you.
I tried sushi about a year ago for the first time! Since then I’ve had a few different kinds but my selection has been very limited. I’m sure your sushi there is fantastic, no comparison to here in the US. That’s so funny your daughters got mad that you and your wife ate sushi out without them! I laughed when I read that. Well then, you got a double treat since you took them out afterwards too.
Thanks. This sushi was really beautiful. I’ll write about another sushi restaurant next post because of my kids. lol.
I love sushi. I used to eat it often in Poland but after I tried the fresh fish in Japan last year I haven’t eaten sushi in Poland anymore…
I see. I’m glad that you like Japanese Sushi. I hope that you’ll eat fresh sushi in your country.
Uh-oh. This is very embarrassing to admit, but … I don’t like to eat sushi. (Will you forgive me?! I know this makes me a Very Bad Japanese Resident.) I like looking at it, though!
It’s okay. Some Japanese people don’t like eating sushi. I can eat their sushi.
yum! i love sushi! it is very expensive here too, so like you, we only have it as a treat!
Yes, it’s a special treat.
do you ever have sushi for breakfast? i read once that in japan some eat sushi first thing in the morning, when the fish is extra fresh!!
I have never eaten sushi in the morning. Fisherman can eat fresh fish in the morning. The taste must be awesome.
D & I go out for sushi at least once a week! We are fortunately that prices in this area aren’t terribly expensive. There are a number of restaurants nearby that offer all you can eat sushi buffet lunch. My personal favorite is tamago, and rolls that include tobiko: yum!
That’s great you often eat sushi and it’s not expensive. My oldest daughter likes tamago and tobikko is colorful.
wow, the sushi set looks fresh and sinfully delicious. you’re making me so hungry now.
Thanks. They were really delicious.
I suspect that sushi in/from Japan can’t be beat! Anywhere! Ever! This looks SO good!
Many thanks. Thanks to many great sushi cooks, we can eat fresh and beautiful sushi. We call them, “Itamae” in Japanese.
>> Do you like sushi? I really like eating sushi. This is a famous food of Japan, you know.
Yes, I love sushi! And of course, the best and freshest sushi can be found in Japan. Yes, sushi is known all over (most) the world.
I’m hungry
Just your kids, I am also angry that you didn’t take me to eat sushi!
Thank you. Sushi is more famous than I thought.
Of course, I’ll take you sushi restaurants every times.
たいへんおいしそうですね!
あなごは私の一番好きなすしです。
ちらしずしも大好きです。
よく家で作っています。
でも自分で作っているちらしずしはさばときゅうりだけ載せます。^^
あなごもほんとにおいしいですね。
サバとキュウリだけでも充分おいしいです。家で作るなんて楽しそうですね。
I love sushi! It is one of my top 5 favorite foods! Of course, the best sushi I ever had was in Japan, but I have been to some really good restaurants here in the US. We also have a good fish market where I live, so we can get nice sushi-quality fish and make our own fancy sushi meals for much less money. Hubby is a really good sushi chef at home!
Nice. I’m glad to know that you can go to good sushi restaurants in your place and you have a great chef at home.
I loooooooooooooooove sushi!!
But I miss the sushi back home in Canada sometimes… haha. > >http://www.samuraisushi.ca/
Cocomino, your blog is now like my lunch everyday. You always make me full figuratively.
I’m happy if you enjoy my food posts.
I love salmon belly
Me, too. It’s very delicious.
There is nothing better than really good sushi and Hokkaido is one of the best places in Japan for fresh fish.
Japan Australia
I agree with you. Thank you.
Sushi is very popular over here. I do love it – but only the vegetarian variety…
I see. Fresh fish is really good I know that you like vegetables.
I think sushi is an acquired taste and a good sushi restaurant is the right place to try this. I never really liked sushi, or did not think I did until our first trip to Hong Kong and there discovered it was quite different to any I had tasted before.
Thank you for your comment I think that Japanese sushi is really nice and you may like it.
YUM YUM YUM
haha. Thanks.
anytime, I’ll be coming back lots now!
Many thanks again.
That last photograph of the sushi feast is truly a work of art. Such a treat for you and your wife to enjoy together–thanks for sharing this beautiful food with us.
I think so. It’s like an art. Thanks much.
That is a funny story… So you ended up going to two restaurants in one evening.
Oh, I went to two restaurants another day. I can’t eat such many sushi.
Love sashimi. But I only eat the salmon one.
Thank you for stopping by. Salmon is one of my favorite.
