I have, on occasion, put down over $100 in assorted shashimi and rolls.

I love it, but have often wondered how a single serving (amount wise) of raw fish can cost as much as a good aged steak that's been cooked to perfection....

Quoted:
Ate it 3 times a week while in Japan. Nothing like eating fish that was swimming around in the ocean an hour or two before it was on your plate.

This place is the place to go for cheap and excellent stuff. 105 yen a plate.

Trip to the coast? Sure.

I can pretty much guarantee anything that you find on your plate on the coast has been frozen, just like what you get.

"But because of health concerns and growing demand, 50 to 60 percent of sushi in the United States is frozen at some point in its journey from the ocean, according to wholesalers. And rare is the sushi restaurant that tells customers upfront that they may be eating fish that has been in deep freeze for up to two years.

Most would be even more surprised to learn that if the sushi has not been frozen, it is illegal to serve it in the United States.

Food and Drug Administration regulations stipulate that fish to be eaten raw -- whether as sushi, sashimi, seviche, or tartare -- must be frozen first, to kill parasites."

LOL... That reminds me.. Someone asked me if I thought the sushi is OK to eat in a Chinese buffet in Gilbert, AZ... I told them: "Can I have your gunz?"

Every year or so, my local Mitsuwa will get a gigantic tuna flown in direct from Japan to Chicago, and butcher it in the middle of the store for everyone to see.

Then they sell off hunks of tuna for a reasonable price. ¹ Several hundred people show up for the spectacle.

I spent $40 or $50 on fish chunks after one of these shows ... ¹and developed a severe acute case of fish pox (itchy scratchy skin with welts). Proof that the fish was fresh! Totally awesome!!!

Short story

During my culinary apprenticeship I worked in a fish warehouse part time for 6 months.
Very educational, I would never eat raw seafood of any kind after that experience. Worms
tumors cysts ect. in every kind of fish that I butchered.

Enjoy

Had some sushi back in March while I was in Kansas and it was just fine. Sushi in the US is flash frozen, also even in places like Japan, some of the fish are aged for over a week before cut into sashimi and served.

Hell yes, love me some/sashimi!!. Too bad I had to give it up for this lo-carb diet.

ETA- for the benefit of you proles that didn't spend time in Japan courtesy of Uncle Sam the word miso literally means SOUP in Japanese, so miso soup is redundant!

Escolar is the best (called White Tuna sometimes, but isn't tuna at all) soft texture that melts in your mouth, rich, buttery taste, it's perfect.

Just don't eat more then 6 ounces...which is a shame because I think I could eat much more in a sitting if not for that pesky gempylotoxin.

Read the link, I'm it describing it in this thread.

Also it is an ugly fish. But so is "Chilean sea bass", (hence why the don't call it by its real name, it is much less appetizing)

Till I was in my early 20's I refused to even try it, then my brothers friends wanted to take him to a sushi place for his birthday since he loved the stuff. I was promised that the place had plenty of non sushi offerings on the menu.

Filthy liars.

But hey, I learned I actually really like the stuff so it worked out in the end
