I haven't had sushi since this whole pandemic thing started.
Eso sí que es.
our local place was closed for almost 2 months, we were worried they went out of business. turns out they were doing some reconfiguring to make it safe for them to operate. their front entryway has been turned into a pickup area with a shield and such. they also reconfigured the prep area so the chefs have more space.I haven't had sushi since this whole pandemic thing started.
Thats good they figured something out.
We got double wammied. We moved in March to a place that only has one sushi place, which looks kind of sketch, so haven't even bothered. Then the pandemic hit, so traveling and sitting at sushi place in another town, while possible, hasn't been something we've been interested in doing.
which is why i am gloving up and masking up to see a socially distanced screening of sean connery in "goldfinger"...
figuring out what to smuggle in...
You're going to an *indoor* screening?

Back is hurt. No nothing all weekend. Walking tolerable this morning at least. No rides planned for anytime soon.

Me either. When this is all over I'm going to find an all you can eat sushi and wreck myself.I haven't had sushi since this whole pandemic thing started.
I've almost forgot the horror of feeling full as hell, only to have the server bring over another tray of sushi. FUCK WHO ORDERED THOSE?
i once ate an entire sashimi boat myself, and this was after sharing a 100pc sushi boat with 2 other people.I've almost forgot the horror of feeling full as hell, only to have the server bring over another tray of sushi. FUCK WHO ORDERED THOSE?
"Oh right... I did. Because I am an idiot."I've almost forgot the horror of feeling full as hell, only to have the server bring over another tray of sushi. FUCK WHO ORDERED THOSE?
Totally been there. Great... now I'm hungry for post-Covid sushi. DAMMIT.
a total of 16 people allowed in the theatre...for less than 2 hours...You're going to an *indoor* screening?
less dangerous than the 2 oversold not socially distanced flights i have already taken this year...

I walked in to order to-go, took no time to breeze down the paper menu with my official sushi pencil, then minutes later hear "your total is $71.44"
full disclosure I didn't finish. thankfully I got a phone call that interrupted the bing, therefore I have leftovers for lunch.
i've never had sushi....
thats a shame. it's one of my favorite meals.
I saw Tenet in the theater twice. I did not contract COVID.
Masked whole time, and reserved seating. No one was within 4 nice-sized-recliner-seat-widths from me.
gag reflex would say fuck you steve
nothing gross about sushi. nothing rank, nothing slimy. I say try it.
I love sushi but certainly found the limits of my comfort zone while dining in Japan, but I would think you would have to try very very hard to find anything like that in the US.
Raw crab and fish roe don't do it for me.
I still remember my first time eating sashimi and thinking raw fish was nasty. Fast forward 15 years and I would be happy to subsist on sushi and poke.
I rocked up to Tsukiji fish market at 6am when I was there. Ate at a sushi stand where you sit at a counter, and the chef puts what he's making in front of you, there is no choice. Had Uni sashimi. Ooof, that was a punch in the gut. Almost didn't make it. I was with my father in law, who tried it and just couldn't do it. I had to finish it. We didn't want to leave it and let them think the white guys couldn't hack it! I almost lost it at that one. Uni before 7am is not something I would recommend.
First and only time trying sushi was trying raw eel (or something super slimy) when I was hammered. Wasn't hammered enough. Fucking gross.
I've had that at a local authentic japanese place. Same thing, there is no real menu, you are paying for the experience of whatever they put down on your table.
Interesting, to say the least.
I wonder if that place is still there?
I would just go to restaurants and point at something I thought would be good. It was almost always worked out well, but I got an order that had many pieces of not just fish roe, but the whole egg sacs. The texture was too much for me.
Same thing happened at a crab restaruant. I unknowingly ordered a whole family sized meal, had like 10 different types of crab, all was really good except for raw crab. It tastes super fishy and I couldn't handle the slimy texture.
big fat, oily roe are gross. the small black caviar style is nice for a topping, but not as stand-alone sushi.
not unagi? that's cooked as I think it's dangerous to eat.
