$800 a month Sushi habit.
 

3 years ago I had never tasted Sushi. Mike D from SoulCash (who is bigger than me) forced me to eat some raw tuna, and salmon. Sushi was fine but it's a fuckin' scam. They fill you up with rice. That's their dirty little secret.

So I moved on to the not so popular, Sashimi. And now my monthly Yamakawa Sashimi bill is nearly $800 a month.

How the fuck did this get so out of hand? I never spent more than $60.00 a month on ANY restaurant or fast-food. And now here I am dropping at least $100.00 every time I go. And I don't even feel the desire to stop. That's what scares me.

I think I may get Ginger Root poisoning. I eat 2 or 3 bowls of ginger during my sashimi sessions. I eat there so much, the chef is now giving me complimentary orders of Sashimi. It's nice to go in on a saturday evening and get special attention from the sushi chef... but it comes with a healthy price tag. They even gave me a free shirt, and they have NEVER given them out to ANYONE, they don't even sell them. Getting that shirt is like getting the medal of honor. My order is just about to become a special on the menus. "Oh, I'll have the 'RedShoe', please"

Is this the advantage of earning more money? Do I stand to loose my money by letting it go to my head? This is fuckin' ridiculous, I need to stop.

By the way, if anyone ever wants to meet me in Toluca Lake for a round of Sashimi... just let me know.






Thanks, MikeD :Oh crap

i spend about about the same on sushi every month

i dont eat sushi, i smoke a lot of weed though :1orglaugh

I just cannot eat that stuff. Maybe I haven't gone to the right place yet.

$800 :eyecrazy

How much does it cost to hire a chef... and come to your home to cook every weekend?

Mike knows his sushi, he taught me a few things!

$800 a month is not hard to do, what's harder is explaining one weekend's sushi bill on your government expense report and actually getting reimbursed for it. :1orglaugh

No. You just haven't had a 250 pound 6'6" webmaster squeezing the back of your neck with one hand and forcing raw fish down your throat with the other.

I would have never tasted it in a million years, but peer pressure is a bitch.

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

800$ that is fucking to much you realy need to stop

800$ I make shopping a lot of clothes and have money left over for pizza :winkwink: :food-smil

that's considered rude, careful not to do that just anywhere

i don't like fish so i guess i'll never have that problem. :)

although i could definitely see having an $800 a month fogo habit

i try to have sushi five times a week :thumbsup

i love sushi

sushimi is a little 2 much for me

$800?? wow - that's a lot - i just treat myself to Koi every month or so :)

anyway, maybe you should take a sushi making class and start buying raw fish at Bristol Farms or somewhere like that....probably way cheaper and fun as well especially with a chick.

I'm a sushi fiend. I wish I could afford it - I'd live on the stuff. :(

Same here... my sister loves it and I have never tried yet.

$800?? hun, wtf are you doing?? LOL :Oh crap

You could eat 4 pizzas a day for that money! :)

800 is not that hard to spend on sushi


i go out maybe once or twice a month for sushi, it is easily 75-100 bucks per meal..assuming you bring someone with you. Hook up with a korean person, they will get you the special prices ;)

My wife and I always go every week for the early bird deal. The place we go to is real nice but from 4-6 it's real cheap so we can pig out for around 50-60 bucks. (that includes the beers and tip)
Cheap meaning $1 nigiri or sashimi $3 rolls and the chef knows us well so it's not just shit rolls, but good stuff.

:thumbsup


Mike.........

Sashimi is also my favorite. Last spring I went Deep sea fishing in Charleston, Sc..I went with some friends and we brought our local sushi chef, we caught a large wahoo and he cut it up right there and we had fresh sashimi! He actually brought a little soy sauce and ginger...kinda weird eating some raw fish and it's still there flapping away.

LGF earnings out tomorrow :winkwink:

on toronto? looks up nicely today

I love sashimi too.

For those who think it's nasty, give it a shot. It's an acquired taste though, and a very expensive one at that too.

It's cross listed...should be a good quarter with Christmas dvd sales..I'm hoping

Fuckin sushi addicts :winkwink:

$800? What are you doing, snorting it? I love sushi too, but I think you need an intervention.

Makes mental note of that comment. :winkwink:

Hmm you buying? Our city just started offering direct flights to your area starting in April at 69.00. :winkwink:

sushi and weed on the daily

$800 a month on sushi? Small time man!

Go order fugu in Japan - for two people, that can break $1k...

mmmm sushi

sushi is soooooooo good

One day at a time my brother
and remember it's the people, places and sashimi you need to avoid during this time of crisis.

:-))

Fugu if not prepared correctly can and will kill u.
It's the Japanese Blowfish that Chef's need to be licensed to prepare

I can eat as much sushi as I want :pimp

Doesn't cost me a dime...how?

The restaurant owner is a good friend of mine who I made a website for!

And I thought I was bad back when I had a 300 a month drug habit.

Aaaaahhh, sushi. Sounds good for tonight. :thumbsup

Damn, thats an expensive habit!!!!! :2 cents:

TRUE DAT! :pimp

On a side note, which is really sad actually. If your consuming that much sushi/sashimi you may wish to have your mecury levels checked. :(

Sushi is sooo damn addicting, if you ever in NYC you gotta try Tomoe on st marks in the village. This is probally the best sushi youll every have, tiny little place that you have to wait forever to get into, but its sooo worth it. They opened this place down the street from me that has 2 former chefs from Nobu in NYC, this place is the bomb for a nj sushi joint

Let's just say I didn't realize what I was worth... and now I do.

You'll also note that most of the people that replied in this thread refer to it as Sushi.. fools. :)

You Sushi eaters are being bamboozled. Go for the Sashimi. Don't fill up on empty calories!

And to FreeAdultContent... You get your ass on a plane to LA and Sashimi is ON ME for the ENTIRE time your here, anytime you want it! The only catch is... you have to be able to eat as much as me. If you can't keep up... you pay. Deal?
:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh SUCKER!!! You're gonna LOSE!

Ouch!!! I like sushi but not that much!!!

Capitola has Paradise sushi... where you can order the satan roll which is by far the hottest thing I have ever eaten... i take people there tell them its hot they say I like hot... the chef tells them you dont want to order this they say fuck that i am a stud.. they eeact on peice and you can watch them turn red break out in real sweat and watch the water pour from their eyes.. Stuntpig and kc can back me up on this. Anyway the real menu is not on the menu and i have several rolls I have made and named.. my favorite is the million dollar roll... its ebi hamachi cilantro mango basil mac nuts tobiko and secret sauce. i love to go there and order a million dollars please and then pay $4.00 for it hahahahha.

Anyway I have eten suhi all over the world and this little place by my house is the best hands down I have had so far !

hey i have a 8000 a month coke and hookers habit.. be happy!

:(

Here $14 CAD gets you all the sashimi you can eat, including my favorite, wild pacific sockeye (no bullshit low quality farm salmon). I usually have 30 pieces in addition to everything else I eat...

This is the lunch special though, for dinner it's $22. Going every day would put me at $600/mo CAD :)

fuck that, I do not eat much in one sitting.
