I don't know about you but eating at Kura Sushi is damn fun. Love seeing that little robot deliver me my big arse bottle of Sapporo.

Tell me you’ve only had grocery store sushi without telling me blah blah blah.

When I lived on the other side of the Pacific, sushi was a particular favorite, but it ruined me for what passes as sushi here.
Totally different experience.

Sushi isn’t some exotic new trend, this isn’t the 90s. Those who wish to be cultured have moved on to things you couldn’t even comprehend.

Was way more into Ramen and Yakisoba. I’m still somewhat puzzled to how Sushi became so popular in the U.S.

I’m allergic to sushi. Every time I eat more than 80 sushis I barf.

Not really. It gives the Asian husbands something to do while their wives are giving massages and happy endings at the business next door.

I wouldn't necessarily agree that its a waste of money. I would say it is severely overpriced. Most of the rolls I get have the fake crab, cream cheese, and avocado. These places want to charge 13-15/roll for ingredients that cost them maybe 1-3 dollars.

One reason they can do this is because making sushi yourself is actually quite difficult. Making good sushi rice is very difficult for a casual home cook. Even if the base ingredients are cheap, the technique and labor isn’t.

Have you tried the Yakuza House in NOLA (Metry)? Definitely my favorite meal in the last 5 years.

Because I do not like raw fish ? Is that alright?

I can agree to this. This is the reason why I keep paying the price for it.

There are non-raw options without resorting to colored fish paste and a schmear meant for a bagel.
