I am going Friday to eat sushi for the first time...any suggestions for me...what should I get? how's it taste

for starters, try the miso soup. it is very good! it has small chopped green onions, with some seaweed bits in hot steamy broth. delicious.

then you should order some maki - those rolls wrapped in seaweed and rice. the rainbow maki is the best. it's colorful and filled with seafood and avacado.

then you should try the sashimi - that's the actual raw fish. the ebi is great, the tuna, yellow tail, salmon is excellent, and try the raw shrimp - it is great. try the scallops too - awesome. but please PLEASE dont put too much green wasabi on your food. it is HOT! it fills your sinuses and throat passages and it burns and chokes you if you eat too much. a small, and i mean SMALL dab should do you just right. my friend would alway almost choke to death from piling on the wasabi. the ginger is good - that pink stuff usually shaped like a flower. i suggest sitting at the sushi bar so you can se how they make your food. it's cool.

whatever you eat, i hope you enjoy it. happy dining.
