Damn you! Now I'm craving sushi!  There's a restaurant here that I just discovered that serves this AMAZING roll that's tempura fried... Holy. Yum. It's a rare treat, but it's incredible!

Sashimi is totally not the same as sushi.  :P

...glad you enjoyed your half a roll! I love sashimi as long as I order sashimi AND avocado (slices of avocado).  If each bite has tuna (or yellowtail or salmon or whatever your fish of choice is) AND avocado AND soy AND wasabi, it's glorious :)  Well, tastes vary, but like you, I adore sushi and sashimi is so healthy and so high in protein so I am learning to crave sashimi instead of rolls :)

I actually prefer sashimi to nigiri or rolls, even before surgery.

One of my favorite sushi bars serves "tuna carpaccio," which is tuna sliced very thin with lemon, Japanese mayo and a green sauce.  I can't find a photo from my place, but here's something similar:

Tuna

We used to order two plates of it because my husband and I would devour it like it was our last meal.  Now, I eat three slices and I'm full.
