Props my friend. Ron must really like you. That was a quick name change.

I will now ask for one myself. I think its time to make King Shizzo official.  :-*

Yeah....Ron called you Shitidiot81 in our PM...good luck with that though.

Dude, I swear people dont know what FRESH FISH is until they've caught and fillet'd  it themselves! Silvers should be a bright vibrant orangey-red.

Any time you're eating sushi and you get fish that looks kinda dull colored, dried out, no moisture, etc.....its old fish you're eating.
also I'm fairly certain farm raised salmon f fed food with dye or something that makes their flesh more orange to make it appear more like fresh

Hey while on the subject of sushi u guys on the east coast r aware that that shit cheap sushi places call white tuna, super white tuna or escolar is not tuna at all but a fish called snake mackerel.
It's been outlawed in japan n Europe cuz the eating this fish cause anal leakage n explosive diarrhea.

Good luck w ur escolar.

I was looking around for a 'sushi forum', but have no luck, so figured I'd ask here.

anybody order 'fresh' fish online?

cheapest I've found is $35/lb of yellowtail, and salmon is about $25.... that's delivered price and at 4lbs a week, I'm not really saving all that much money over buying my sushi. (think I've spent $2k the past two months on sushi  :-\ )

I'm not exactly close to the beach now, so my selection of grade A ('sushi grade') fish isn't always great. I have a source for yellowtail at $18/lb, but the cuts are ok for rolls, but not always great for Nigiri.

and... the places I've found online only have yellowtail... I want Bluefin (maguro)

would you consider eating a raw steak?
yes.

I eat black and blue (seared for a few seconds to kill the baxteria amd served) steaks all the time. If I could eat the steak completely raw and not die, I would.
