      I have a tea cup filled with picture of different sushi. Too lazy to look at it though. All I know is that the the red and black one is definitely on the cup.

    If I can ask something, since you say sushi is expensive over there, how much does a dinner like that cost?

    Well, I'm kinda certain of ikura and ika. I'm guessing the other two might be tuna or saba. Not sure of the other one. Maybe some kind of clam?

    D: lol I tried.

    The only thing I can say is a complaint!
    We in Italy to eat a piece of sushi we have to spend a fortune. I'm sorry but I can only say: blessed are you! :)

      We have cheep sushi here, but its likely to make you sick, considering it probably sat in a poorly refrigerated truck for a couple days before getting to us! (I live smack dab in the middle of the US.)

      So you have to spend a pretty penny to get GOOD sushi!

        We have restaurants that prepare him here, there are many Japanese in Italy but I do not know if they can find suitable products to bring them the same as they have in Japan.
        Short, but not knowing what to eat! :(
        In other words, I have no idea how the real sushi! ;_;

    It seems that Danny live blogging are much more about food.. ^_^

    I like trying some new variety of foods especially Japanese and European foods, hopefully following Danny's hobby (isn't it Danny?) I can catch a glimpse about the real Japanese foods..

    When I went to Taiwan on a holiday, there was a sushi restaurant in Taipei that had really cheap sushi. A meal there cost only 1/3 of what we paid locally, and it had better quality.

    Gari :P Sorry, thinking about Lucky Star. As for the sushi, gari, hamachi, ikura, ika, and the other two I can't think of. I can't really see the one off to the left but I almost want to say sanma due to the color.

      Nice guesses. Those would be my exact guesses, especially since Danny seems to love engawa.

    Mmmmm, I prefer this type of sushi, with only the rice and fish. Don't really like the combo ones with lots of stuff mixed together. Guess I need to try it more, since my parents seem to love that kind.

      Agreed. I love the taste of raw fish and prefer to go simplistic and minimalist with my sushi. mmm... I think it's time I had Japanese; haven't gone to a sushi restaurant in a while.
