What a ripoff!

NGL I don't like sushi but that fried sushi looking pretty appetizing.

Try tempura if you find yourself at a sushi place. You'll probably like it
- Or the cooked rolls, like deep fried California rolls... Or aburi-- That's regular sushi (big slab o' fish on rice) but flame-seared.
  
  I'll eat the raw kind all day, but the cooked ones are extra nice IMO.
Deep fried or fried sushi is definitely a thing and its real good if you are not a sushi purist. I think Russian sushi places like to do that, haven't seen it quite so often outside of Russia though.
- Theres a chain of all you can eat kinda fusion sushi bars around where I live. Trapper's Sushi. Actually ate there today. I swear their best rolls are flash fried and smothered in various sauces or scallops with spicy mayo.
  
  If you're a sushi purist you'll consider it a complete abomination but oh my sweet lord it's sooo good.
- I am a bit of a sushi purist, but I do love me a good deep fried eel roll smothered in six types of mayonnaise sugar sauce.
- Dude there is deep fried sushi all over the world lmao
Shrimp tempura roll is probably the gateway sushi roll for you then. That or maybe BBQ eel, which is also cooked and tastes delicious.

And the most important thing to remember is where you're getting the sushi, and it's freshness. If you're buying grocery store sushi that's been in the cooler since 7am, then yeah, it's probably not gonna be great.

This is raw food we're talking about, so you gotta be sure you're going somewhere legit. At least that's my opinion. You want to see them rolling it in front of you. If you go in regularly, the chef may even gift you with random dishes to try. It's a cool experience.

But if you find a good place, man there's nothing like a piece of high quality raw tuna. Taste, texture, everything. And I hate seafood in general. Cooked seafood, I guess. Traditional cooked fish is not my thing, but give me sushi any day.

And if you're getting sushi rather than just sashimi, the rice is also SUPER important.

Location really matters with Japanese food.
In Brazil we have "hot" sushi, which is basically deep fried and it makes the nori taste amazing. Definitely recommend.

This is blasphemy but on second thought it looks kinda nice.

A local "Chinese" restaurant does this. Leftovers of the evening are fried and served as part of the lunch buffet the next day.
- Apparently eating succulent Chinese meals is against the law
- Honestly, I was with you until the last part. Serving the next day? Naw fuck that.
- It's called chop suey

That crispy rice is going to be really good though!

ngl, I'd eat the shit out of that
- There's a place near me that deep fries them and it's really good.

But those rolls don't have any fish... they're just avacado.

raw avocado
- Rawvocado

This dude is straight up frying avocado and rice

Avocado fried rice? Could be good
- Are you telling me an avocado fried this rice?

$40 for a roll? You gotta get a new sushi guy

For real. That roll better be fancy as fuck for $40.

Ever since they legalized it, the prices have been out of control. I still go to the black market for my sushi.
- Black market sushi? I'm not sure this happened even in USSR. Where is this?
Who's your sushi guy?
- Fat Ed down on 36th. He normally has chopped cheese, but makes Sushi on Thursdays between 11 and 2.

There's some deep fried sushi around where I live. It's the tits

Sushi is very healthy. Then Americans deep fry it.

But, God damn if it isn't awesome fried 😂
- I'm sure the Americans do it too but I'm Finnish and those deep frying it are Vietnamese
the tits

whose?
- Alexandra Daddario. It's that good

Derp fried sushi!

Don't give Americans any ideas
- Way too late for that: We already deep fry everything from ice cream to oreos.
- I see you've never heard of the Sunday Morning roll

Never done this. Now I have to do this.

Only if you worship sushi. Some of us just eat it.

We don’t know what conditions are in the kitchen of the restaurant that prepared the sushi, or what kind of food suppliers they have.
There is logic in subjecting food to heat treatment.

Ya mean cooking? Pretty sure that's what most people call it.
- yea, if thou art a Plebian.
There is logic in cooking food but not in either cooking a raw fish dish you specifically ordered or your comment.
