sorry. i just got out of an excruciatingly long staff meeting where my nerves were frayed by the end of it. i don’t care who you are, sushi is a dang yuppie FAD and i don’t see why everyone has their nose in the air about it being the end all and be all, when it is overpriced raw fish rolled up with some rice.
I'm telling you, I've been eating sushi in the US of A since before most yuppies were even a tingle in their daddies' pants. It's not new to this country. I ate it in BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA in 1973.
I understand.
Sushi becoming a FAD is what ruined it. I fell in love with sushi when I was still in tech school. There was a little Japanese place around the corner that a group of us used to go to about once a month or so. We were all used to eating in Chinatown, and so in comparison the Japanese place was outrageously expensive. Compared to the cost today, even that was dirt cheap.
