Those who asked about inexpensive sushi places recently should read it and start "Rolling Their Own".

However, I like to go out for "sushi" because of all the non-sushi items that supplement a great Japanese meal -- for instance ankimo, salted squid guts, conch in sake broth, etc. Most of my memorable sushi meals have been about so much more than just sushi. Which is why I would still like to hear your recommendations for a sushi place with great value (which doesn't mean inexpensive). Thu Aug 15 12:20:27 -0700 2002 74162 0 noodle 2 74207 Ditto here. Still waiting for recommendations coming from a real Japanese !!! Hiko, everyone (almost) realizes that Japanese sushi/sashimi are not the same cost as a Banh Mi (Vietnamese sandwich). Fish/seafood cost a lot more that that. We're not bunch of cheapies here. Many of us spent hundreds of dollars on single meals. Value is more important. I would not mind spending $100 or more per person if I'm getting quality stuff. Even better, I'll be happier if I can spend half as much and get quality stuff. You know what I mean.
