Ethnic Markets- Part Deux

Hey guys!  Thanks for your comments and for sticking with me and my grocery shopping adventures.  The same weekend hubby and I went to the Russian Supermarket and Farmer's Market, we also went to our local Asian supermarket.  Living in the San Francisco Bay Area has exposed us to a lot of good food, particularly all different kinds of Asian cuisine.  My favorite is Japanese food.  I live for sushi.  I walked through the store on a mission to recreate sushi at home. 
First up was the live seafood tank:

I know, the fish are cute.  This store showed the origin and how the fish were raised (farm or wild), allowing the consumer to make his or her decisions.
We also found some interesting juevos:

These pink ones were salted eggs.

I believe these were quail eggs.  We didn't buy any, but I thought they were pretty.  Here is what I did buy:

• Soy wrappers, dried seaweed for suuuuushi, rice seasoning, canned lychee, 3 types of green tea, rice vinegar (to season sushi rice), miso soup, seaweed soup, ginger, kim chee, and young coconut juice.  MINE, all MINE!

• Hubby cashed in as well with 2 Cali dungeness crabs, some wild snapper, and some of those shell thingies.  We also got some seaweed salad.  Yum!

You are probably wondering how my sushi turned out...it was delicious and the ugliest little roll you will ever see.  I have a problem with reading directions, but I'm ready to attack it again.   There is something about not overstuffing it, clear plastic wrap, and other directions that I got bored of.

My recs for the Asian Supermarket: Go for the produce- they can get outrageous prices on it, and lots of fun stuff!  I also love tea, rice, seaweed, sauces, fresh seafood, and sake!  Plus all the stuff I got above.


Questions for you: Do you like suuuuushi?  If not, what keeps you away from it?
