There are videos on making sushi, how to eat sushi, the history of sushi, and the types of sushi, but my blog is about Sushi bars, and Japanese, Korean, Chinese, fusion, and American restaurants in the Central Florida Area.

Please join me as I:

• Travel around the Orange, Seminole, and Volusia Counties of Central Florida trying out the best of, and least known, sushi bars and restaurants!
• Learn how to make sushi, from A.A.C. (Avocado, Asparagus, and Cucumber Rolls), to the finest o-toro (fatty tuna belly) nigiri.
• Learn the history of this beautiful, simple, yet delicate and deceptively complex in flavor food from Japan.
• And finally my own journey to make rolls and sashimi from scratch!

“Most people who don’t understand sushi will go to a sushi bar and say, oh! I had the best sushi last night, the fish was so fresh. It was right out of the ocean.” — Anthony Bordain, The Parts Unknown.
