This is a slightly biased review. I grew up on an island (Ireland) surrounded by rivers, seas and an ocean but still managed to spend my lifetime deciding I didn't like fish. I eventually realised I could eat tuna a couple of years ago but that was as far as my fish eating went. Raw fish? Out of the question.
Fast forward to yesterday. I happened to be in the area at the same time as a friend and he was starving. He's a regular here and was in the mood for sushi. I wasn't hungry but said I'd come along for a chat. I went through that slightly awkward moment where I had to tell the woman serving us that I only wanted water but she was completely sweet about it. She was so sweet that she came back with salad and miso soup for both of us! I thought that was just the nicest touch. She returned a little later with his rolls-spicy salmon and tuna ones which looked huge. We decided that it was time for me to be adventurous and taste some. My first taste of sushi ever. Remember, I don't like fishy things. This was yummy! I ate 2 pieces each of the tuna and the salmon and loved them. Not fishy; just tasty, meaty and satisfying. It was a revelation! Everything tasted fresh and our service was so friendly and smiley that I couldn't help but feel happy.
So this will be forever remembered as the place I first ate sushi and liked it. Not fishy fish that a non fish-eater will eat? That's impressive!
