Do you like sushi ?  Almost all Japanese love to eat sushi, so we can find many restaurants all over the city these days.  However, at a traditional sushi restaurant some people might be unsure how to eat sushi.

How to eat sushi ?
It is commonly said that you should use your finger to hold the nigiri sushi upside down, dip the neta (fish) in soy sauce and eat it to fully enjoy the taste of the neta.  If you put too much soy sauce on, you won’t be able to enjoy the delicate flavor of the fish because soy sauce is salty.  The best order to eat sushi in is to start with light tasting ones and move on to something more rich or fatty.  Nigiri sushi, the hand-pressed sushi, are eaten in one or two bites.  Also before you go to the next sushi, it’s better to have some tea or pickled ginger to make your mouth refreshed.  Pickled ginger is free of charge, so pickled ginger is eaten to refresh the mouth. We also recommend sake with sushi, please check the previous article if you interested in Japanese sake !  https://residencetokyo.com/en/2020/01/20/popular-sake-you-should-try/
