I tried sushi many years ago, but it was just a single roll of some form that did not agree with me.

I want to try again with people who know the stuff, and the shared all you can eat thing sounds like a good idea since I can swipe a hunk of many different things.

If you promise to be nice to the newbie, I'm in.

All you gotta do is pick a time and place, and I'll do my best to be there

Another vote for wednesday.

Sweet I'll be nice. Hopefully it's not the seaweed portion of the sushi that disagreed with you.

Yes, I have wimped out and had Teryaki and/or Tempura chicken, steak, vegies etc. on a number of ocasions at Sushi places, though they will likely make fun of you...

Technically, Sushi isn't fish, it is seasoned rice. Fish is just a common ingrediant. But some have no fish at all i beleive.

yeah, but it's not okay to eat it at the bar when it's busy...They get annoyed by that...Like Dean said, you can get chicken or something...But all the sushi has "seafood" in it...

Sushi roll names are pretty arbitary... the only one that seems to be pretty universial are "California Rolls"... and even then it's not always the same thing from place to place.

For example:

The "Tina's special" at Sushi Club is called a "Jewish Roll" at Woo Chon's. And the "Woo Chon Roll" is known as a "Godzilla" at Sushi Club... and the list goes on:

SC to Woo Chon conversions:

Mountain = Volcano
Sushi Club = Crystal Shrimp
Godzilla = Woo Chon
Tina's Special = Jewish
Caterpillar = Viagra
Wayne's != Wayne's (They make them differently)

And of course both places have item's w/o an equivalent at the other place... and it's like this for pretty much all restaurants.

Actually, a Woochons' Jewish Roll is slightly different then a Sushi Club Tina's Special. The Jewish roll is tempura without any jalapeño. But they do both come with salmon and cream cheese.

(at this point, most of these items aren't even Japanese food, but Japanese styled)

Also, if you ordered a Texas at Woochon, you'd end up with a mess of (I think) scallops, crab and shrimp plus some other tasty bits. All cooked, but not exactly beef + cucumber.

One more for tomorrow night. Dean, I like very little "seafood"; I tend to only order Tuna and Godzilla rolls, with like a cucumber roll or somethng jsut to get another plate to stack. Unless you have a super huge appetite, I can give you some pointers on stuff to eat that will probably agree with you if you're not into shellfish and such.

Is it the seafood that doesn't agree, or the raw seafood? If you want pointers on cooked items (be it shellfish or not), I can also give you some.

omg, no criticizing now -- I like the vegetable rolls. They are good to me, because they have the seasoned rice & seaweed wraps, with no fish & crab or shrimp that I may or may not be allergic to.

So -- Mike, if you want to go give sushi a try, go & try a vegetable roll, or a tamago (egg), (which in my opinion is rather bland); I actually had sushi last week with a piece of raw scallop, which I didn't like; but was a good reminder.

And - just be careful with the green stuff.

I'm mildly allergic to shellfish, but if I can build up an immunity if I keep eating it. If I do get a break out, its usually just a mild rash on my forearm that lasts for only a day.

So, for the sake of my health, I must eat shellfish (preferably in sushi) multiple times per week.

I like seafood, just not overly salty like the pink "smoked" salmon. I'll try anything once, and the advantage of going with a group is I can try what others already like without commiting myself to a whole plate of something I may hate.
