ok....now keep in mind that Uni is my personal favorite, and any sushi session should ideally end up with uni for me =)

I had some friends that I used to go to sushi with, who wouldn't call it baby poop....they had a far more accurate description.....cat vomit.

and well.....they are right....it DOES look like cat vomit

I find myself craving yellow tail, especially in a handroll! Like butter with a fresh sea flavour-yum! Tobiko with quail egg is another fave , a good combo.Good fresh scallops are devine too. My guy's fave is tamago, which is just about the only thing I can't eat. Too close to scrambled eggs, which make wanna hurl! Also not fond of beancurd sushi.

Mamachi that's a mama hamachi!!!

Hamachi toro nigiri is my hands down favorite. Like butta indeed!

Also love a fat plate of perfectly seared tuna sea steak. Mmmmmmm!

I often crave a roll that's got deep fried shrimp and spicy tuna inside with hamachi and seared tuna on the outside, drenched in sweet unagi sauce, tobiko and green onions.

We used to go to a place that would deep fry a roll covered in tempura batter with salmon, cream cheese, unagi, and cucumber inside and cover it with tobiko, green onions, and one of the tastiest special garlic sauces ever. That used to be my absolute favorite, but we don't go to that joint anymore. I don't usually like cream cheese in my roll, but since the roll was deep fried, the cream cheese would get all melty and divine. I miss those rolls!

As for uni, I've tried it several times - even one place that one of our friends declared had the "best ever" uni. Never could stand it...but more power to those of you who love it. ; )

Huge hamachi fan, but dig uni and awabi too. As far as the uni goes, might I suggest first taking a bit of uni off the top instead of the whole nigiri piece at once...it'll help with both the texture and taste. I used to work in an italian restuarant, and the boss made with sit down with him and bowl full of urchin...he musta ate 10 whole urchins. Just eating a little at a time helped me get through it way back when...now no problems powering down a bunch of it.

ok here it go's, hamachi,magero,saba,ikera,masago,tobiko,tako,sake,hokigai,skallop,shit i love it all!!!!!!!!!!

p.s. Dani's comment sounds so yummy~!!

Thats sounds fantastic Dani!

Where did you get that I wonder. I love lobster...but don't think I've had it in sushi form.

I'm also very partial to Ikura sans quail egg.

Sea urchin gonads, some male and some female!

Tuna Summer of Love- from Samurai Blue- FANTASTIC!!!!
