We used to eat at Fujiya all the time! A friend came over and taught us how to make is Sat night. It was great!
i just can't justify spending $50 on something that leaves me hungry in 3 hours. gimme indian food instead, at least there's leftovers.

I know its the hip thing to like sushi...but i cannot...ive tried it, because im always down for something new and trendy, but this just doesnt work for me. ive tried a lot of different kinds at a lot of different places and it all just taste like bait to me....ill pass on the sushi.
salmon + wasabi and soy sauce
stuff rice
Squid Enchilada is my favorite from Goro's.
you means Godais

I'm way too wimpy for sushi. I want to like it, mostly because its so pretty, and I like other Japanese food, but I just can't do the raw fish thing. I like the smoked salmon. And I found a restaurant where I live that has a very simple sweet potato tempura roll, which is awesome. That's as far as I can go, though.
the good places are where they served you naked....
LOL where is that?? IM on my way to go try Midori here in Austin. I hear its great!!
I have never been able to bring myself to even try it.
No, I meant Goro's.
Love it. I mainly go for the basic Nigiri... Yellowtail, Salmon, Mackerel. Rolls are okay, but I don't really go for the crazy-ass platters that are all sauce and rice and no fish.
A lot of sushi is cooked. Salmon and octopus are usually boiled briefly. Crab and shrimp are always cooked. I agree on the sweet potato tempura; that stuff is amazing. Avocado rolls are great if you're not into the cold seafood thing.
I used to think that too, after trying it at a few places and buying it at the grocery store. I think a lot of places freeze it, and it destroys the flavor. I live not five miles from the Pacific, and even here it was hard to find a place that has fish fresh enough that the sashimi/sushi is flavorful. The vast majority of the trendy / expensive places I've tried really suck too.
Goro's rules.
Niki's is the best quality I've had, but Goros is damn close and a TON cheaper.
Suhsi Zushi is that is only acceptable in the most dire of situations. That stuff isn't that fresh.

You should try the ones that have the cooked fish. It's a great way to start, like the shrimp tempura rolls. Those are yummy.
We ate at sushi zushi once and weren't impressed.
I don't believe that the salmon is cooked. I would think the texture would change immediately.
Where is Goros? Is Nicki's the small little hole in the wall with the individual rooms?
410 and Vance Jackson, outside of the loop. You go North on Vance Jackason from 410 to the first set of lights and take a left and it's on your right. It doesn't look like much from the outside but it's nice inside.
If you like squid and octopus, try the Squid Enchilada, it's a y California roll, wrapped in octopus, and covered with squid salad. It's my favorite roll ever.........well, my favorite roll outside of eating sushi in Hawaii.
Sushi Zushi is one of the most expensive and it's garbage.
Though I do like the fact that they deliver.
The salmon is either boiled very briefly, or frozen first. Salmon is much too dangerous to eat raw without doing one of those two things. Only fish that spend their entire lives in the ocean are safe to eat raw without freezing. Wild salmon is full of dangerous parasites.
If the place serves you completely raw salmon, it was frozen and will most likely have no flavor.
Goro is at Godai, not Goro's.
I didn't know that. So if I bought some at HEB and wanted to make sushi I should boil it? OTOH I'm pretty sure it would have already been frozen.
Thanks!
