I like sushi, but I agree with the cucumber thing.
I usually just take the cucumber out and eat the rest with some soy sauce and wasabi, |

The first time I had sushi, I knew nothing about what I was ordering but picked some items from the menu that looked nice. When it arrived at the table, I looked it over and for some crazy unexplained reason I decided to pop the green dollop into my mouth. I quickly learned about wasabi.

Eel is about the only sushi I don't love. I will eat it though. Sashimi is great and simple.
I like the artistry that trained chefs display. I often envy the bears that catch salmon. I could just take a big old bite right out of the side of a salmon or tuna, zombie style, right this second. |

I really enjoy Sushi, but I am picky about where I eat. The place I really like is really expensive, but the quality of the Sushi is by far the best I have ever had. I ate some Sushi in Galveston last year and it was wonderful. I will eat pretty much anything but squid and urchin.

That's the thing about wasabi... I've been to some places where the wasabi isn't very hot and to others where it will burn you out of your chair.... trust me, what you see on the plate in the picture was plenty hot... I could only put a little of it in my soy sauce. It will definitely clear the sinuses! |
