what's the single best sushi roll you've ever had? bonus points if you have a picture of it, a location name, or ingredients listed.

my favorite is the Yaki Toro as found at the privately-owned franchise Kashi Sushi, which I had in Bellmore New York (ritzy suburb of Long Island). it has crabmeat, kani salad avocado inside, topped w. Toro flamed touched, truffle soy reduction

i have never had a roll quite this good despite being a sushi glutton across my life. i never had a favorite roll before. i don't live in New York so I probably will never get to have it again. what about you? what sushi roll reigns supreme?

I thought the point of sushi was simplicity

i don't know who says that but that's not what I'm looking for when I get sushi. I want interesting flavor combinations between what's in the roll and what's on top

[Anonymous No.17559859]

I like the ones with the raw fish but I don't want to risk it, so I make my own with canned tuna sometimes.

Anything shellfish is generally pretty GOAT, sushi-wise.

There's a roll at a place here that does an eel roll with tempura shrimp inside, topped with this smokey Chipotle lime sauce. It sounds weird but it's really goddamn good.

There's a lot of rolls I've skipped over because the name was so fucking stupid. The worst I saw was at a place in Seattle called "Umami, I choose you!". It made me want to leave.

[Anonymous No.17560311]

This is the closest I can find to a picture of it.
But a local joint does Volcano rolls.

It's a variation of the Popcorn Scallop roll, but a lot spicier.

high quality basic tuna roll topped with high quality salmon sashimi. It was fucking amazing.

Grilled eel with real crab, have to special order it. One sushi place made it and it sucked though, make sure your sushi place is good and rolls clean unmessy rice.

Godzilla roll that doesn't use cream cheese. It pains me so many places use CC for the God roll.

the cheapest mix set available for delivery, simple as

8 bucks for 2x salmon nigiri, 2x shrimp nigiri, 2x octopus nigiri, 2x avocado, 2x halibut, 2x cucumber

I like the one with the crunchy breadcrumbs or whatever on the outside.

the best rolls ive had were the simple ones
they're simple to make with no crazy textures or flavours, doesn't matter where you get them, they'll always be good
that's pretty much why i go for the basic urumaki rolls like california rolls

Unfortunately one of my favorites is called a Marilyn Monroll. Always feel like a dipshit ordering it.

I hate those stupid designer rolls. You pay like double and can’t even taste the fish under all that brown sauce and crap.
The best sushi I ever had was a yellowtail scallion roll at a local place in NJ. The fish was just so incredibly fresh and delicious I had an out of body experience.

That'll be 22.45 for your meager portion.

Delivery is 1.79, prices are including tax, and I pay in advance so there's no tip.

So I pay in total exactly 17.79. I used to order more, but one day I ate so much sushi that I ended up vomiting into the sink. It wasn't the fish, I could tell that it was the amount of food based on previous overeating experience with different types of food (pizza, Chinese food).

Ootoro nigiri is peak sushi, but its really fucking hard to find for under 5 bucks a piece in the US.

[Anonymous No.17565259]

Going the opposite direction, lemme tell you about the worst sushi I've ever had.

I once bought a pack of sushi from Aldi's for $3.
It tastes exactly as good as it sounds.

The Mars Roll in Shawnee, KS at Sushi Mido.

Spicy crab meat with masago, topped with seared spicy salmon with spicy mayo, eel sauce, and honey wasabi sauce

Used to go to Katsu-Ya and just get their good squid rolls, but now Katsu-Ya is shit. Not to mention that they are super pushy on masks and being vaccinated.
I do like Kura’s squid rolls, but I’ve just taken the Black pill and just get those lunch specials with the spicy tuna rolls from those places with names like “California BBQ Sushi Plus Bowl Oh oh Teriyaki Sushi and More”

Morimoto in Vegas. Had the spicy tuna maki, forgot what the other roll was. Both were the best I've had though.

Maido in Lima, Peru. I'm not a big fan of traditional japanese sushi style, but I like the more original stuff. I've tried good sushi in the US, but too pricy and doesn't get close to what you can taste in South America. And on top of that, the nikkei cuisine (peruvian-japanese fusion) just obliterates any othe type of competition

How much cheaper is home made sushi vs sushi in restaurants for you? I really don't understand how they can ask 2 EUR for a tiny bit of rice with a slice of raw fish on top.

How. There's only so many ways you can mix carbs, fats, proteins, and spices.

this. sometimes I go to the japanaese store near me to get a big filet with the sauce which is $16. throw it on some rice with avocado and its fantastic.
