Sushi Sundays So Far...

Last post I said that I wanted to try every type of sushi possible and I'm proud to say that I'm following through with it. Every Sunday I go to Surin with Ryane and try at least three types of exotic raw fish from their two piece Nigiri list. Here is a list of what I've tried so far and my reviews of them.

Anago (Sea Eel)
- Very Good. Can never go wrong with some eel.
Ebi (Shrimp)- Very Good. Who doesn't like shrimp?
Hamachi (Yellowtail)- Gross. Waaay to fishy. And I like fishy tasting things.
Hokkigai (Surf Clam)- Fair. Not horrible but I doubt I'll try it again.
Hotategai (Scallop)- Sick Nasty. By far the grossest thing I have ever put in my mouth. Very very very slimy. Spare yourself of this torture.
Itako (Baby Octopus)- Good. The taste of it wasn't bad but when I bit down on that head it popped in my mouth. That freaked me out.
Ika (Squid)- Fair. The taste was fine but it was too tough to chew. I ended up spitting it out.


In case you can't tell we're going in alphabetical order.

See you soon kids.
