I've recenty eaten at a few Japanese places in my general area and I'm actually liking it more than Chinese food (far more filling). My favorite Japanese dinner is sliced teriyaki beef (with a puff of rice speckled with those black seed-like things) with a row of those little sushi "California rolls"; crab meat mixed with shredded cucumber, wrapped in a rice-coated, green avocado-leaf thing. With a bowl of hot, steamy miso soup......an extremely elegant meal with rather unique qualities.

I forgot the name, but I really want to try one of those sushi rolls that's ground tuna/various Japanese spices on the inside with the outside wrapped in a salmon skin.
 
I lived in Japan for almost 7 years and I always found their food kinda bland. I do like miso soup with tofu and tuna sashimi.

I will tell you this. If you can find it in the states, order Basashi (Horse meat sashimi)...don't judge...if you can...just try it.

Interesting. Maybe you got so used to Japanese food that the novelty wore off? Also, I've noticed Japanese food needs to be heavily salted in order to bring out the flavor.

It's not an avacado lead, it's seaweed.

Also, the Americanized version tends to be much more highly spiced than what you would get in Japan.

We've just got a few quarter horses. Lotsa fun to ride, but nothing spectacular. Well mannered though.

I see. Whatever that leaf-wrap is, it's quite tasty when I heavily salt it.
 
Personally, I've never met anyone (American or otherwise) who doesn't love Japanese miso soup. It's a meaty-tasting broth with chunks of tofu and leafy green things in it - don't worry, it's much tastier than my simple description sounds. And like all Japanese food, it needs a bunch of salting to really give the flavor a bang.

Replace the tofu with some A5 and I'm in.
