[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How about sushi recs -- I'm the aforementioned picky eater asking about Thai. I am not interested in raw fish in any way, yet everyone is always telling me sushi restaurants have more than that. What are good "starters" (not appetizers - but to learn that type of cuisine) when people want to go out for sushi?[/quote]

Shrimp and Veggie Gyoza/Dumplings, Edamame (steamed and salted soybeans), and tamago sushi (sweet egg omelette over rice). Many places also have great ramen (delicious, rich soup) and when I am pregnant, I often go for veggie tempura. Also, there are now some Japanese places in the area that focus on cooked offerings rather than sushi. The main two that that come to mind are Izakaya Seki and Izakaya Daikaya: both have raw dishes, but the focus is actually on Japanese comfort food and the grill. In Rockville, there is Tamari Cafe, which is a tiny restaurant that does this kind of food as well, but in even more of a quaint and home-cooking kind of way. The value at Tamari is amazing: you can get a salmon teriyaki dinner (to include a soup, salad and tofu appetizer) for about $15, and they are known for their Japanese curry, a milder version than many other Asian curries that I have tried. Good luck and enjoy![/quote]
