Sushi Mystery Solved!!!

We definitely had a once in a lifetime sushi experience this weekend and thought we should tell you about it! Hannah had requested that we go out to sushi before she headed home, so we met up with our friends Kana, Kelley, and Gus to enjoy some local flavors! From the start we decided to be a little daring when we ordered a tray of sushi with a WIDE variety of raw fish on it. We were a little worried that we would make Kana sad with our very American taste in sushi, but somewhere during the meal we all kind of jointly decided to try some of the more unusual choices on the tray. Kana and Hannah started it off by eating a raw squid – tentacles and all! Gus followed by eating a raw sardine (which he said was hairy). I was next with a slice of raw octopus (very chewy, but not much taste)…get Hannah and my tentacle experience in real time on the clip below!

Josh took the last bold bite which included a large piece o’ squid (again, very chewy as you can see in the video – it took him about 2 minutes to eat!)

We thought that our taste adventures were done for the day, but boy were we wrong. The sushi chef knew Kana as a frequent customer and also seemed to be enjoying our entertainment, so he brought us over a special treat…a tray with 6 bite sized portions of mystery meat! He told Kana that it was a gift and asked her to keep the identity of the meat a secret. Watch the video below for the full mystery meat experience!

Now watch the video below to see the mystery meat revealed…YIKES!!!
