I’ll say yes to Sushi Nami anytime!

One of the only meals that I’ll never turn down is sushi. I have to be in the mood for pub food, pizza, Mexican or fine dining, but it’s a rarity when I say “no” to some delicious raw fish. Of late, our favorite spot to go is Sushi Nami Royale. The quality of sashimi is great – important since we eat so much of it; there is a pretty good variety; and between 3-5 pm and 9:30-11:30 pm, they have a Tsu-Nami menu, where food AND booze is 20% off! Ding, ding, ding! It’s a no-brainer.

We make a serious effort to try different things when we eat at Sushi Nami, but one thing stays the same: the Sashimi Appetizer – a great deal at the regular price of $9.95, and even better when it’s 20% off. The pieces of tuna are like candy and the salmon is plump and supple on your tongue. I’m not a huge fan of the Surf Clam, but do love the little parcels of snapper wrapped around pieces of cucumber.

We also generally try to have a salad (or two!). On this occasion, we order both the Kani and Sunomono salads. SN also does a good size portion of the Hiyashi Wakame (Japanese Seaweed Salad) for $6.95. The Kani salad is delicious and creamy. With shredded crab meat, and long strands of carrot and cucumber, I like to twirl it around my fork like spaghetti. The good amount of avocado adds another creamy layer while also playing the role of the ‘cherry on top’.

Crab Meat, Cucumber & Flying Fish Roe

The Sunomono salad is pretty delicious too – but definitely not for the faint of heart as serious octopus tentacles are involved. Again, the texture of the shredded seafood is what I really love, paired with the slight crunch of roe. The sauce here is based on soy and is quite mysterious.

Shrimp, Cucumber, Crab Meat, Octopus & Seaweed

And because a good roll is always nice, we opt for the Spicy Scallop roll which is pretty tasty with the spicy sauce and tempura bits. A spicy salmon/tuna is a good ‘go-to’ as well, but the Fusion rolls are really special. I’ll have to make another trip to Sushi Nami soon to illustrate what they are all about!

Chopped Scallop, Green Onion, Tempura Bits & Spicy Sauce

But you can’t have sushi without a bit of deep fried…so we try the Karakuchi Shrimp Fry – three large shrimp stretched on skewers and deep fried in tempura batter, then coated with a spicy sauce. What a crunch!

This is such a great deal and is really one to take advantage of. How can you go wrong with a guaranteed 20% off almost everything in your order? I say “almost” as there is a specific Tsu-Nami menu with limited items, but I’m sure your palate will be more than satisfied with those available.
