		<description><![CDATA[To westerners, the Japanese name for various sushi items can be difficult to remember, but worse even is when terms are used interchangeably or incorrectly. I thought it would be interesting to start a series on clarifying item names (in the vein of my White Tuna – Sushi Confusion piece of yore), providing some insight [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I recently added a writeup about Fugu (Puffer Fish) to the FAQ which hopefully provides some insight into why people eat such a potentially deadly dish. I&#8217;ve also included some interesting tid-bits about how the poison can be used in other ways, and how a person can actually eat fugu with no fear of being [...]]]></description>

A new restaurant has opened near me and has grown on me quite a bit, but it is easy to know why. It is a seemingly small difference, however it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sushi has been a popular item in the west for a few decades now and as with anything that makes its way across cultures, it has readily changed to better match western palates. But unlike noodles and soybeans, sushi has not merely changed to fit our preferences; it has begun to shape how we view [...]]]></description>

If you do not want to hear stories of the preparation of living sea animals for food, please do not read this entry. Caveat lector.

That said, while they took the transistor from its western inventors and changed the world, some things I&#8217;m hearing don&#8217;t sound like progress to me. If you [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve continuously gotten questions about the requirements that make any fish &#8217;sushi grade.&#8217; I&#8217;ve also always tried to find a good answer. But as it turns out, there isn&#8217;t one. By that I mean, in the United States, there are no FDA rules for what makes seafood &#8217;sushi grade.&#8217; Basically, there is no such thing.

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had a number of questions about omakase meals in a sushi restaurant and thought to take this time to explain what true omakase is to those unfamiliar with the term, or who just want to know more. Omakase literally means entrust and basically means &#8220;chef&#8217;s choice.&#8221; The Itamae (sushi chef) is given the opportunity [...]]]></description>
