A-WENZ 0 Posted October 12, 2009 I thought I would get your attention with an alliteration!! Tonight I went for a fab sushi dinner the #1 rated restaurant in Colorado...and the seaweed paper got stuck....as I ran to the restroom I was holding my hand over my mouth. Just wanted to give people a heads up...it was my first serious stuck experience... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TxMomof4 0 Posted October 12, 2009 I too get stuck on seaweed in sushi. There is a restaurant here in Tampa that will do sushi in a rice paper. It is wonderful. I actually like it better because I can taste the fish and other ingredients better. I wonder if your restaurant has that available to you? It may be worth asking......

davighd 0 Posted October 12, 2009 I moved to Shashimi (sp?) and that has been wonderful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sahney 0 Posted October 12, 2009 I agree with davighd, I too now stick to Sashimi, Much easier to chew into smaller bites! Unfortunately tempura also goes down like a dream – but have to stay away from deep fried food! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thecooley 2 Posted October 14, 2009 Have you tried nigiri? It's a clump of hand rolled sushi rice with the fish on top. No seaweed. Super fabulous. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A-WENZ 0 Posted October 15, 2009 I have an allergy to things out of the Water so I actually only eat Veggie Sushi or beef which they make at my local restaurant. Today I went again and had a veggie roll and actually spit the nori into my napkin in a discrete manner. Not an ideal situation however I still loved it.

isaviolinist 11 Posted October 15, 2009 There is a roll called Kanisu and actually it is typically crab, shrimp, avocado and sometimes some veggies wrapped in very thin cucumber. IT IS AMAZING! There is no rice or seaweed. Also, sometimes the restaurants that serve kanisu will make other rolls for you wrapped in cucumber instead of rice and seaweed (but call ahead to see). I used to LOVE sushi, but I like Kanisu even better - it is so refreshing and light and you can taste the fish inside. Its really amazing and much healthier than sticky rice, and much easier to go down! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ocotillo 0 Posted October 15, 2009 Oh yummmm, my favorite food. I do sashimi mostly but I do eat hand rolls, seaweed and all. Have to be careful with tako....must chew well and take small bites. Guess what I'm having for lunch tomorrow......yipee!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
