I thought I was pretty well-versed in sushi, but my husband introduced me to unagi on our first valentine's day together...yum!!<br /><br />When I lived in Tokyo I had an English student who took me out for sushi almost every week. I don't think I realized how fortunate I was. (I almost typed "a English student." Good thing I caught my mistake)<br /><br />My daughter has inherited my love for sushi and will often make her own rice rolls at home!

I love sushi it is my fav for sure.<br />I love trying new foods... but most of all I love introducing my boyfriend Tim to new foods... I took him out to Beni Hana for his 24th birthday a 2 years ago and I had the pleasure of ordering all the food for the night, so it was his first taste of sushi and first try of sake. Since then he is a sushi funatic, not so much a sake fan, but I had to give it a try. I love this post and I want to eat my computer screen, okay maybe just lick it... Well I read this post right in time for me to take a lunch break... But all I got is some split pea soup;)<br />Smooches,<br />AndreaAndreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04684918719962841286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-62199748842679089922010-02-09T10:40:19.968-08:002010-02-09T10:40:19.968-08:00Beautiful presentation, although I don't reall...Beautiful presentation, although I don't really go for the raw stuff.

Match and I go to sushi for our anniversary and my birthday, and if I'm lucky a couple more times a year. It's delicious here but pretty spendy. I love how pretty those place settings were! Some day I want to learn to make some of those dishes at home. But I have a feeling it wouldn't be nearly as tasty!Mrs. Matchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09306267724811720324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-52576836653367397762010-02-09T07:25:19.858-08:002010-02-09T07:25:19.858-08:00Love sushi, but a little difficult to find in my r...Love sushi, but a little difficult to find in my rural NC town of 2,000.

I'm trying to be a little braver though!<br /><br />I did roast pork belly on christmas day - it's amazing! I did freak out a tiny bit when I saw NIPPLES and made Dave cut them off before I cooked it. There's something about the idea of serving your guests crackling with teats that seemed a little wrong!Alicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08233341615710498901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-49834415078318360162010-02-09T03:26:29.413-08:002010-02-09T03:26:29.413-08:00Hello.

Perhaps it was not as fresh, being served here in the Midwest, but I was not very intrigued with it. Perhaps next time we can get to a coast that ensures freshness, I'll try it again. <br />The food you featured does look very interesting, however ... and your pics are lovely, as are your words!<br />I wished I lived closer to you so that you could take me out on a sushi 101 crash course!CottageGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07544266302604094446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-4892758172884001532010-02-09T02:55:23.078-08:002010-02-09T02:55:23.078-08:00You know I am writing down everything that you and...You know I am writing down everything that you and B did and ate.

We got a pudding mix at the grocery store in Japan once that was great, and I've had the black sesame soft serve ice cream in several Japanese cities. <br /><br />Sushi is fantastic and is what got me eating fish again (I am otherwise vegetarian). I've made it at home several times, which is less exciting in variety and presentation, but much better in price. Especially considering that we each eat our body weight in sushi when we go out, and I'm a tall lady and weigh a decent amount.<br /><br />What a great account of your meal, though! I'm always too chicken to take photos. Maybe I just need to get over it.Stacyhttp://littlebluehen.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-65632718102564834692010-02-09T00:38:36.260-08:002010-02-09T00:38:36.260-08:00Ohh I love sushi!
