    I do start with miso and edamame so that I don't totally overdo it, because I do like the tempura roll and the cali roll. I don't like the sashimi as much as the fun rolls.

    The best sushi is what you love and will make you feel satisfied and happy.

    I adore sushi, but I don't have it very often. When I do, it's a treat. I'm not going to waste a treat on choosing something lower cal or fat that I might not enjoy as much.
    I am on the other side of the spectrum:
    Sushi is my go-to when I am feeling like a meal out. I eat it sometimes 2 or 3 or even 4 times a week. BUT, I DO stick with as many non-maki entrees and rely on sashimi's and tataki's and cucumber wrappers instead of rice if possible for the main part of my meal ... If only I could stay away from the shumai. :noway:

    Glad to see I am doing a great job in choosing healthy options for sushi before reading this. I had Miso Soup as an appetizer, had salmon and tuna rolls and used the low soy sauce. A little ginger and wasabi as well to go along.

    I love going out to the Hibachi bar close to me that i now actually work at. When i eat there i usually get sweet potato rolls and sometimes peanut avocado rolls, not a big fish fan! But I always order a bowl of clear soup with my rolls. Amazing! Always always always use both the wasabi and the ginger, they give it the best flavor!

    I love this guide for sushi...will definitely be referencing it when my friends and i go out for sushi!!! :smile:

    It's says the California Roll is 200 calories per roll.. This made me cry.

    Roll isn't per piece. Each roll is about 8 pieces.

    Hold up wait a minute.......it says nothing about the 2-3 large Kirin lights and bottle of unfiltered sake my husband and I put down at sushi. They must be ok.

    @dbiddle69 My older brother was in the Marine's and married a lady from Okinawa. When you mentioned yakisoba I then remembered it was one of my favorite things that she would make us. Thanks for reminding me of great times.

    I generally eat sushi at least once a week and I pretty much follow the guidelines that the OP posted. I happen to love nigiri and a salmon roll, so it's fairly healthy. And I really enjoy it!
