Most people that did not grow up in Japan have some initial getting used to eating sushi. It is an acquired taste. A dangerous one. Danger in a good sense that is. So many of my friends and people I read about have talked about how they just suddenly not only start liking it, but can’t stop thinking about it.
That is how it was with me. I even lived in Tokyo for some time some years ago, but when I was there I hadn’t had this “revelation” yet. It came years later. Now I can’t stop thinking about all the fantastic sushi, sashimi and wonderful maki that I missed out on… Sigh. Well, it just means that I will have to go back to Japan I guess. Over and over.
But – for now, I have to find good sushi wherever I am. That’s why I wanted to make a sushi website. With reviews, addresses, links to stuff, restaurants, recipes, equipment, goods etc. For I know there are several people like me. So – here is the deal. I will tell you where I think you get good sushi in Oslo, Norway in addition to all the other places I go, and I would like for you to tell me where we all can get our sushi fix around where you live.

As for the choice of name, here is what or rather WHO inspired it…

Thank you for sharing and for adding me to your blog. I found some nice blogs there. It is always nice when people take some time off to properly present things. Good job!
Love this website. I saw the title of the website and immediately thought of Eddie Izzard haha. I adore sushi too, especially when I’ve moved to the UK and couldn’t get hold of any easily!
I’ve written a basic recipe for making maki rolls, if you think your readers will be interested in making their own: http://www.soyandpepper.com/2008/01/making-sushi.html
I don’t know whether you have already featured this Melissa and Doug wooden sushi play set. It’s so adorable I want it even though I don’t have kids!

Good bye
@Carol, @Francis, @Quinn, @Virrvarr, @Eva and @Sushiman Iberico - thank you guys for stopping by! Please keep sharing your comments and links and I will soon get back to posting on a more regular basis. I just had a beautiful baby boy (who of course will be forced to love sushi as soon as he can have solid food) so my hands are a bit full these days… In a couple of weeks, Sushi or Death will get my attention again.
