This is the anti-sushi review.
I've tried, and tried and tried and tried to like sushi. I've gone to many different Sushi joints in cities allover the country, each time thinking "maybe I'll like it this time...". Maybe I did something wrong before? Maybe I just wasn't in the mood for it...9 times before.
There's something about white rice that I don't get. It's disgustingly terrible for you...I don't understand why people eat rice. It doesn't even taste good, if it has a taste at all. Maybe that's why people think it's healthy. It's not. It's an over processed grain that converts to sugar as soon as you consume it....). Pair that with a weird crunchy seaweed texture and slippery raw fish and you have me gagging as soon as I put it in my mouth. When I was a child I felt the same about eggs and about cake. Yep, I was probably one of the only kids that had Birthday Pies at his party...yep...birthday pie!...mmmm birthday pie...)
That being said, I have a lot of friends that love sushi and crave it. So I get dragged to Globefish once in a while. BUT it works out for me because they have a lot of items on the menu that are NOT sushi.
The steamed edamame is delicious and piled high.
The Beef Tataki is almost like Carpaccio and I love carpaccio. Thinly sliced lightly seared Alberta beef steak served with garlic chips and green onion.
Throw in some shrimp skewers with teriyaki sauce and you're good to go with a meal that doesn't remind you of slippery birthday cake.
This location also has great service. The chick with the tattoo on her arm was awesome.
