Its legit difficult to find decent maki sushi outside of tourist areas and the one time of year where its part of a festival or something. Nigiri is sushi, maki is just how it was promoted to the rest of the world. Also the nori helps cover up the generally lower quality fish you get outside of Japan

I can understand not being obsessed with sake as there are certainly more interesting beverages (like wine), but whenever I hear someone say they don't like sake I know for a fact they're (a) a tastelet and (b) a flyover who can't get good sake anyway

ive tried it a few times mostly in NYC and it may be because im korean and raised on soju which is awful but tasteless while sake seemed to have flavors. i did enjoy a bottle of sake a roommate brought back from his own trip to NYC which was like cherry blossom flavored. i havent given it much chance but have tried what were supposed to be decent bottles but havent found one i really enjoyed so far.

I detest dry wines like a curse.
Personally perhaps a riesling or a mixed chardonay.
I would go for a wine with a semi lower percentage of alcohol than usual and a tiny bit of bubble but a much easier drink because it isn't dry as fuck..
There are also light red wines that you technically could drink with sushi.

Problem is that a lot of people mistake what is sold at these markets as drinking sake when it is cooking sake. Multiple times have I seen people buy specific cheaper sake, which still seems expensive, but in fact is meant for cooking and is horrible to drink. Good sake can be quite expensive, more than people realize sometimes.

This might be helpful. White -> the light grapefruit/florar, medium and rich might fit. I would go more for medium and rich in the dry white section. The off-dry in the sweet section might also fit. Ask for their recommendations in the restaurant also, the terms might also help you find the wine you like.

>Good sake can be quite expensive, more than people realize sometimes.
Compared to what? Good sake can be found for $25 a bottle. That's like, entry level for good wine. The stuff goes bad in a year, and it's made from rice, an infinitely renewable resource. To make it better you just polish it more. There's no "early frost OMG" or "we got some hail storms and now the grapes are all fucked". The supply constraints that exist for good wine simply do not exist for good sake.

[Anonymous No.12197479]

>>12197475
$25 entry level is debatable, but on sake remember these are the kinds of people who think cheap is just as good as and are very stingy.

[Anonymous No.12197482]

People in Japan rarely buy sake for drinking other than customary events. Pic related is what the blue collar worker has with hot water at the end of the work day, as well as what the average housewife uses in stead of sake. It's shochu.

[Anonymous No.12197484]

>>12197479
It depends on what kind of wine you're after, you don't need to spend more than that if you want a nice mosel kabinett or a fleurie (for now), but good luck getting decent pinot noir for $25, inb4 "but this one tastes good to me". Nah. It's gross.

In my experience a lot of the English teachers in the past 8 or so years come in knowing some Japanese or its very easy to pick up since there are so many volunteer schools now manned by middle aged Japanese women that lived abroad.

The big fuck ups are Euroscum and extra arrogant Americans there for a week or two and the old guys who came in during and right after the bubble that are proud of the fact they've lived in the country for 25+ years and are still teaching English and can only order a beer.

They loved me because I was a regular and kept sending friends and coworkers their way. And I'd go their on dead nights and didn't care when it came out. It was the only place I could ever find fresh sea urchin when it was in season, and they'd let me know the moment it came in even if they weren't selling it.
