Now THIS is sushi!

I recently went down to Kyushu, to a place called Huis Ten Bosch ( ホウステンボス ), which is a Dutch Village theme park here in Japan. Surreal, i know. But i haven`t yet finished sorting through the pictures. When i do, i will be sure to post many pics and observations from that trip and from my brother-in-law`s beautiful wedding there, which is why i went down there in the first place. (hint: lots of windmills and food). The following pictures have been sitting in a folder on my desktop, waiting to be posted (blog filler, anybody?).

Thus, for now, i give you... raw fish.

Now, I`m not trying to knock the sushi buffets of West Coast Canada, or the quaint attempts at "high class" sushi joints of Toronto and GTA, or even the tables-covered-with-plastic mall sushi of Halifax (and every other city). But, friends, THIS is what those places aspire to (or should aspire to). This is real sushi in Osaka. Don`t even ask me to try and name anything...
