(nods) yep, my first time ever. Only geekchick had seriously threatened to take me, previously... I still wouldn't have gone this time if I hadn't been headed to Japan in three weeks (alone, at this point), and figured I'd better try it over here first. That way I could ask questions...
Timing was good... my dinner companion was wise and experienced in the ways of sushi, and she could teach me new things while I was adapting to the novelty. Given the way the last week had gone, it was a welcome distraction. I'm told that I looked dubious, screwed up my face, looked startled and then relaxed.
I had a sampler... smoked salmon, yellowfin tuna, prawn, eel (unagi). And tried part of a California roll. And wasabi is my friend, yes ;-).
I want to try it again before I fly Eastward... (smile).
