If you already know you like California roll, then Rainbow roll is a good jumping off point to start out in the world of sushi!. It's California roll with strips of other things over the top!. Usually tuna, salmon, shrimp, and sometimes octopus or eel depending on the restaurant!. That way you get to try a lot of different tastes!. If you really like the tuna topped piece for example, then you can order tuna based sushi!. Don't worry about ordering as you eat, and then ordering more, it's expected!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you like seafood, then there is little difference!. The way sushi fish is handled (frozen) means there is no risk in eating it raw!.

I often go to a certain all-you-can-eat sushi place in my city, and eat squid, octopus, tofu, tuna, whitefish, yellowtail, shrimp, etc!. Most sushi restaurant menus list in English what the stuff is you're eating!.

Sashimi means only a piece of fish, no rice!. Chirashi is fish pieces with a bowl of sushi rice!. Nigiri is the regular pieces of sushi!. Maki means rolls!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

These are items I'd usually order!.!.!.!.

Nigiri-zushi: maguro (tuna), toro (belly of tuna), hamachi (yellowtail), ebi (shrimp), anago (grilled sea-eel), uni (sea urchin), ikura (salmon roe), ika (squid), tako (boiled octopus)!.

Tekkamaki: raw tuna roll, Kappamaki - cucumber

Sashimi (raw fish slices): fresh maguro (tuna)

Cold soba (buckwheat noodles): eaten by dipping in soy sauce based cold soup, soba-tsuyu; side ingredients are seaweed, green onion, and wasabi!.

I make sure the Japanese restaurants I patronize don't serve California rolls - NOT Japanese and I don't like them!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sashimi is raw fish eaten without sushi rice or nori (the seaweed wrap)!.

I LOVE unagi (Haha, FRIENDS fans!.!.!. Salmon Skin Roll!!!), it's freshwater eel and it's cooked, and it comes with this lovely unagi sauce!.!.!. SO GOOD!

My fiance is a huge sushi fan, he grew up in Japan so he's a lot more adventurous than me!. He really likes spider rolls, which have soft shell crab in them!. The legs poke out the end pieces though and legs/tentacles kind of freak me out so I don't eat the ends!.

The best advice I ever had was: try EVERYTHING, then decide what you like!. Some places will have their own restaurant rolls!. My favorite place to get sushi is at Kyoto in Scottsdale, AZ!. Their house rolls are so big you can't fit a whole one in your mouth!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

I order Spicy Tuna Roll, tempura rolls, and crunch tekka which is tuna roll fried in tempura batter(served with the combination of the dynamite sauce and the sweet sauce that is serve over an eel sushi)
My husband doesn't like Japanese food that much but he eats all of the above!.
Oishi dayo!Www@FoodAQ@Com

EEL SUSHI!! It truly is the best!. It's sweet, savory, and basically like grownup candy!. You have to try it sometime!Www@FoodAQ@Com
