One of my favorite meals has got to be sushi. Being here in Germany has definitely afforded me the opportunity to indulge in many delicious specialties, however lately I have been feeling the sushi-itch as a pregnant woman might fiend. Dank sushi is rare find in a mostly landlocked country like Germany and if found is notably expensive. Thus, as of late, I’ve been missing the unbelievably delicious hole-in-the-wall restaurant scene of Portland, Oregon. This post is a dedication to my well-missed sushi restaurant Saburo’s.
For the sheer quantity, quality, and good prices I have yet to find an equal. There is most always a wait, but is definitely worth it. Just go grab a coffee or a beer should you get a case of wanderlust; there is a lot in the area.
For me the Maguro is a must, but most things you will find here will rock your proverbial socks off. Also don’t forget to finish off with some green tea ice cream and maybe a bottle of Saki. Here are a couple helpful phrases to help you blend in with the Japanese folk there-
natach-tachi-wa ni-hon-jin = we are japanese
sushi tabi-tie = I want to eat sushi
moto tabi-tie = I want to eat more
saki nomai-tie = I want to drink saki
moto nomi-tie = I want to drink more
You’ll impress your friends\or date. At least until the waiter laughs in your face and spits in your food.
