AUDT: What is your favorite Sushi Roll?

What is your favorite sushi roll?

During my undergrad at UCD, there was this place, Osaka's, where you could order a King Roll off their secret menu. Forgot what was on it, but it was good!

When I can find it... Blue fin tuna sashimi and only a few places carry it but I will eat albacore tuna sashimi, spicy tuna hand roll, it sucks that I cant eat seafood like crab and what not but there are so many amazing rolls I see out there. My favorite place to go is called Akiko's Restaurant in SF or Kirala in Berkeley (not as good as it use to be since they lost one of their best chefs back in the day.. ) There are a few rolls that I have had in Akiko's that I have never had and I never got the name but the chef knows me and knows what I like so he makes stuff up for me.

Snow on the Mountain - Scallops with spicy sauce over an eel roll.

Bat Man - Fried; Unagi, kani and cream cheese. Normally I hate cream cheese in rolls, but it totally works in this one.

Whatever was in that tuna roll my wife made that Weds Night last summer that had this flax seeds and row on top. Testament that a person of Mexican descent can "cook" anything.

Ultimately thoh and I hate to admit this since I Luv DragonRoll it's really California Rolls.

I eat that ish w everything and you really gotta be a screw up to serve a bad set to a customer.


Where's Hide's reply?

That doesn't mean there aren't good rolls out there. I need variety He said roll though. My favorite is just maguro or hamachi nigiri and the key is the quality of the fish, and finding really good places with a good chef isn't always easy or cheap. I pretty much gave up maguro though after watching a movie about overfishing.

Hosomaki - yes, but a lot of places don't make that so great either.

Oh, and this guy is my hero:



Now I want sushi...

He's probably thinking that this thread is about leaning on cars or some **** like that.
