SUSHICYOUSHIMARUKashiwa

We went to Tsukiji fish market early to eat the famous breakfast sushi meaning that since you are near the worlds largest fish market the sushi fish would be fresh. Unfortunately I am not such a food gourmet to appreciate this type of sushi. My friend of 30 years explained that this is the old Edo t...ype sushi where the fish is prepared to hide the unfreshness by doing things to it, so he paid and stuttered hearing the bill. So couple days later he took me to his favorite sushi place and I was not happy because it was a kaiten sushi or conveyer belt sushi, where you pick up dishes as it goes by. The secret my friend says is to order what you want to the chef and it wasn't bad at all and cheap. 1/4 the price of Tsukiji. There were 4 of us and ate like pigs and came out to be $70 which sounds not so cheap in USD but in Yen its cheap with drinks. All the sushi I ordered directly to the chef was great few of the ones I got off the belt was not so good so just stick with ordering from the chef.
