17 days of moving

17 days of moving

By babykarret on November 29, 2005 - 12:32pm

I'm moving to Toronto soon. I'm going to miss this place. Here's how.

#17. Sushi.
I went for sushi with my mother last night at Metrotown. We decided to skip the all you can eat (since I'm having it with some friends next weekend) and went straight for the sashimi boat. Hardly the best sashimi I've ever had in my life, but sweetened by the fact that I'll soon be without affordable, fresh raw fish for at least 8 months.

Our boat came with raw shrimp. This reminds me of this one time my mother, my brother, my sister-in-law and I went to a sushi place on No. 3 Road in Richmond and had raw lobster. The poor thing was still twitching at the table while we ate its other parts, and then it was cooked into lobster noodle soup. I'm not a big animal-rights type, but even I had to admit that was kinda cruel.

Yum. I'm going to try and make off with as much unagi (barbecued eel) as possible this weekend.

I love sushi and thank goodness I never had to deal with eating something that was still moving. I did one time had to deal with being responsible for killing a live shrimp at a Hot Pot place. I hated that. The poor thing was already on a stick and I had to put its head into the pot of boiling water. Poor thing was twitching its tail until it was obviously dead. That was my worse experience. I never went back to any Hot Pot place ever again.
