My blog today is a simple one, are you or are you not a sushi person? It has been my experience that most people either love it or hate it.

I am a sushi person. When I was twelve, my Dad spent a month in Japan. When he came home he excitedly told us that he had to introduce us to sushi. It sounded so weird and exotic then. There were only two restaurants that it served it on Long Island, one in Rockville Center and the other in Greenvale. From the moment I tasted sushi,  I loved it.

The sushi experience was a very different experience when I was first introduced to sushi. Serving sushi was a serious form of art.  Chefs had different levels of expertise, which was reflected by the band on their hat. Sushi was beautifully presented,  simple raw fish. There were no rolls, hand helds or spicy mayo infused fish. My Dad would say that a spicy tuna roll is just not sushi.

Sushi, yes or no? And if yes, how do you like it?
