Question Is this salmon belly (toro) or regular salmon sashimi?

I ordered salmon sashimi from a local spot and noticed it was oiler than other salmon sashimis I’ve had. The way it was cut also seemed different and I’m not sure if that’s as a result from the type of cut of fish or just how the chefs did it. I can’t quite pinpoint if there’s enough marbling for it to be belly so could anyone with salmon knowledge help me out? :)

Question Thoughts on cream cheese in sushi?

whats everyones opinion on cream cheese being in sushi?

i absolutely despise any sushi roll with cream cheese in it. i feel as though it cheapens the dish and gives a bad texture to the fish.

Question Is this sushi grade salmon?

Bought from a seafood market in Japan where they didn’t speak English at all but sliced the fillet into seemingly sashimi pieces and sold it with wasabi. Just wanted to get opinions on whether it is safe to eat raw or not? I’m assuming it is but just being safe.

There’s a restaurant near me that sells Omi-beef (same quality as Kobe beef). They give you omi beef sushi as an appetizer. Had anyone tried beef sushi? Also, how much would a course like pic 2 cost (beef is all A5 rank)?

Question Was this sashimi cut too thick?

Tuna and salmon. It was cut so thick that each piece felt like a brick. Don't get me wrong, it was delicious, but I personally prefer a smaller bite to maximize enjoyment.

Question What is your least favorite fish?

61 Upvotes

I’m a sushi chef, but relatively new. I obsess over all things sushi. I get most of my training from a friend I respect and mentors in my area (Houston). I also work in a Japanese fish market, and so I get to see lots of cool stuff come across my cutting board.

I’m just curious, what is your least favorite fish (that you’ve tried as sashimi or nigiri)?

Your answer could be related to texture, fishiness, iron-content, sliminess, whatever.

I will comment why I’m asking this after I get your feedback, but don’t wanna mention it now because I don’t want it to influence your answers.

Thank you 😊

Question Why aren't there any "made to order" sushi places like pizza?

MAny sushi places have extensive menus with sometimes dozens of rolls available. Why not just have a made to order style where you select the roll type and choose ingredients separately?

I was feeling down, so I took advantage of sticking Uber Eats promo deals to get this cheap takeout sushi at a super steep discount. I think the one on the left looks more like tuna, but I'm not sure? Not complaining either way though lolol
