That’s not sushi. That’s seared ahi tuna over what looks like fried rice noodles with sauce.

In the first picture, yes. But the subsequent photos are sushi

I came here to say the same thing (not sushi) then saw the other pictures. Okay, fine, downvote removed, lol.

Your instincts were right. You can’t let them get away with that.

Also some sashimi in the 3rd photo

[–] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

I'm guessing that's this restaurant's take on Tuna Tataki

So many great combos. I'm taking a sushi making class in a few weeks.

Dear MedicPigBabySaver,

It would behoove you to take pics of the entrées, then share them with us, or we’ll say that it never occurred.

Sincerely,

Captain Raymond Holt

P.S. Your username is ridiculous on its face. I recommend that you consider changing it to something more appropriate.

Do you not see 3 photos? That's all my own food.

Dear MedicPigBabySaver,

It appears my ability to comprehend what I read, and also see, is severely lacking. In light of my new found understanding, your food looks appetizing; one might even say beautiful.

Sincerely,

Captain Raymond Holt

That's actually cool as hell I have never even attempted on my own. I did watch a video once.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 7 months ago

Should be fun.

Are those egg yolks in the second photo? I don't think I've ever seen that before

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

Quails egg. Very common with Uni.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Not OP, but yes. Japan doesn't have salmonella issues, so they put raw egg on everything.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Japan absolutely has historically had salmonella issues, but they’ve done incredible work in the last thirty years, bringing their rate down by a lot. I don’t know how if the use of raw egg was rare when the salmonella rates were much higher though.

Consumption of turtle meat and chicken sashimi also plays a role in salmonella cases in Japan, but those foods are less common worldwide.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

Turtle meat and chicken sashimi aren't very common in Japan either. You wouldn't pick an izakaya at random and expect either of those on the menu

Mmmm, gonads and ova 🤤
