This is a man who sells food for almost cost, and refuses any attempt to leave him a tip. In fact if you push him on it, he will remember you and decline to take your order next time.

being refused service is a symbol of respect, it is a samurai tradition

There used to be a place in my town that's owned and solely operated by an old japanese guy. He has a big list of preposterous rules you have to follow or he wont serve you. He has the paper checkbox style menu, most of the time he'll take it and look at it, and then totally disregard it and just serve you whatever he feels like making

lol that's awesome


obviously the correct play is to go in and say 'whatever you feel like doing is fine by me' when ordering

One time I was visiting Japan and ordered sushi at a restaurant there. The waitress couldn't believe it. She was like "ohhh? You like sushi?"

And I'm like yeah it's actually very popular in the US, which made her smile politely and say "oh really?"

After she brought me my food the waitress hung around to see if it would eat the sushi or if I'd be too grossed out. I poured a little dish of soy sauce and mixed wasabi in. When the waitress saw me dip my sushi in she giggled and said
"Ooh I see! You don' like sushi, you just like soy sauce!"

And I was like "n-no!" and grudgingly ate the rest of my sushi without soy sauce just to prove her wrong.

But actually sushi is much better with soy sauce and gently caress you if you're some kind of sushi purist who scorns people for dipping their sushi.

Oh, also: I hate to break it to you but American Sushi is superior to Japanese Sushi.

so long as you a tiny amount of soy strictly as a solvent for a big blob of lethally hot horseradish

How do you do? Truckin' in style along the avenue
I want to take a vacation where all I do is follow that crazy yelp guy around and make reviews too.

I'll sit right beside him, stabbing everything with one chopstick and shoveling it into my face like a child eating soup. I'll try some with wasabi and promptly try and scrape the offending bite out of my gaping mouth with the lone chopstick. After loudly chugging my coke I'll remark that I cant believe people use that "green poo poo" and pull a full size bottle of ketchup out of my pocket, I'll ask him to watch this ketchup later when I go "scope out the soft serve situation".

After dinner we can enjoy some tea (I'll need a glass of ice and some sweet n low please) and a few sake margaritas.

I think I could break him in about two weeks.

this is how they treat sushi in toronto, like bottom rung fast food

there's 20 sushi spots within a few blocks of my office and they're all poo poo tier/AYCE, I think literally only one of them serves ika for example

you should really treat sushi as a rare treat instead of your go-to lunch option unless you're keen to experience debilitating mercury poisoning

Cali rolls are okay when you're getting some cheap stuff from the supermarket but yeah I wouldn't order them at a restaurant.


On that note I don't enjoy goddamn creamed cheese in my sushi and I think this recent trend of 'deep fried' sushi is not very good either; although maybe I just haven't had a good one yet.

e: also Europe sucks dickbags at sushi, and steaks too while I'm at it

I want to hear more about Europeans sucking at steak

This gets more true the farther east you go... I feel like for example you'll have an easier time of it in the UK than in Austria but:

When a European says 'steak' they mean 'chop' 90% of the time. As in like pork chop thickness. Thus you can imagine then that it is all pretty much 'well done.' They don't even ask you for the temp, they just bring you this piece of meat barely thicker than your smartphone cooked all the way through. And that's a "beef steak."

It's kinda weird you can find steak tartare no problem but an actual NY or filet cut is goddamn a mystery to them.
