One of my favorite rolls in LR – House Cucumber at Sekisui

Fr0015

YOLO! It’s when you are out of money and still go for sushi. Sekisui’s got happy hour on weekdays, $2 per plate. The list isn’t huge but it’s still worth while.

Since you don’t have any money you won’t be eating the roll pictured, but you should donate some blood or give tug jobs in the park because it’s that good. 

It’s the House Cucumber off the sushi list. Don’t order the cucumber roll, it’s the HOUSE CUCUMBER. You will thank me.

Have a great place we should visit, let us know in the comments.

Eat local.

Sashimi starter – because it’s time you start eating real sushi

You're probably very comfortable crushing cream cheese fried sushi rolls. Hell I am… American. But there comes a time when you graduate to nigiri and start to feel more like a sushi boss. Eating less fried and more fresh makes you feel good.

Now nigiri is righteous in every aspect of the word, but what's next? It's time to roll a fucking enchanted epic two handed broad sword. Its time for sashimi.

I was ready to take the next step and Sekisui was my ambassador. Lucky for me I was sitting in the hibachi section. At the nearest table sat a couple that together weighed as much as a small Buick. I couldn't help but watch in disgust as they powered through a hibachi feast.

Finally my sashimi starter came. Beautiful and succulent pieces of FedEx fresh fish. I'm happy to report not a soldier was left behind. Btw I got some regular sushi too. After all, I couldn't let that Buick have all the fun.

Spicy Monkey Ball aka the most important sushi creation ever

Sushi is one of the greatest inventions on earth. Bite size randomness is what makes both the internet and sushi so amazing.

So I was headed out to WLR, regretfully, for sushi with Shewolf, not regretfully. It was a hot as hell Friday night. We went to Papa Sushi which is nestled in a standard generic non romantic shopping center. We had been there last summer for food so this was our annual visit.

We remembered the sushi tasting outstanding. We ordered too much food last time and the same thing happened this time. I'd tell you about all the rolls we ordered and how it took 40 minutes for Clank to get a martini, but then I'd be bitching.

Something refuckingmarkable did happen. I experienced the best jalapeno experience in some time. What happens when  East meets West? SPICY MONKEY BALL! Yes. Japs stuffed with spicy tuna fried and topped with Sriracha. I am not kidding. It was unreal. I am ordering two for myself next time and funneling sake. That's legit.

FWLR – Sekisui and their Bomb Ass Christmas decor

The sushi bros were on point last night. They busted out a Godzilla Roll and Tuna Lover that Jackie Chan would be proud of. They really know how to get jazzed about the holidays. Check out the candy cane. THAT CANDY CANE. That's the only decoration in the restaurant. Sushi = awesome. Decorations = awesome. Fuck WLR.

Honaroo Hater

I hate admitting a change of mind but it happened. Honaroo was one the top of my least favorite sushi in LR list. You could bank on hippie wait staff and dingy atmosphere. Like Bangkok or some shit. Anyhow, I had a change of heart last night. Grahambitch and Clank convinced me to give it another shot. 5 rolls and a plate of sashimi later my mind was made. This place is worth your stupid time. In fact id recommend it.

Featuring:
LA Maki
Double Punch
The Russian
B-52
Holy Moly
Tuna and Salmon sashimi

Downtown Sushi Opinion

I scoff at anyone who tried to tell me Honaroo is better than Wasabi. Look at this Wasabi spread.

Unlike Honaroo, Wasabi does NOT smell or have the dingy humidity of a Vietnamese whore. You can bank on great service and quality food every time at Wasabi. Side note: I don’t like Yellowtail and Scallions.

The Most Pretentious Sushi in Town – Sushi Cafe – The Heights

I feel like a real asshole even typing the word pretentious. In fact, I just learned/think I learned what it means. It’s in the same category as empathy, which I don’t fully understand its meaning nor origin. NORIGIN. I just made that word up.

That being said, last weekend I had the pleasure of patronizing the most pretentious sushi restaurant in town, Sushi Cafe. Here are some facts about Sushi Cafe and the surrounding area in a really long run-on sentence. Sushi Cafe is located in The Heights which is home to liberals, hipsters, and rich people who rarely venture down Cantrell Hill and certainly never across the river to NLR because that’s Dogtown and it’s fucking trash and the property in The Heights is really expensive and the kids drive golf carts they have a DOG BAKERY and Sushi Cafe plays top 40 hip hop and R&B which is ironic because hipsters liberals and rich people hate that music. The Sushi at this place is top notch. My plate and beer and edamame, $35. Quail Eggs, Red Snapper Nigiri, Tuna Roll. and Salmon Sashimi y’all. If you are pissed off at your money and want to burn it, you could do it here easily. You want to break into your woman’s pants? Take her here. If that doesn’t work, chloroform.

Sawa Sawa and Sushi – Papa Sushi – Lame Ass WLR

If you’re into stay at home moms and country clubs then I’ve got the sushi joint just for you. Enter Papa Sushi. Let me preface, I fucking hate West Little Rock. Anyways, I dig sushi so I had to check this place out.
Photo

Headed there on a Tuesday night and it was VERY low key. I think you can expect low key on a Tuesday from all of WLR. Sat at the sushi bar and ordered some Sawa Sawa, Sparkling Sake. Pretty tasty, in fact, fuck the little glasses that you’re supposed to pour it into, I could turn this bottle up. The sushi menu was just right. I could bitch about prices, bur this is WLR and the prick clientele do work. Markets clear, go to hell James and Turner. I can’t even remember the rolls in the pic. Well kinda: (L) salmon something with cilantro sauce, (M) Something fried probably salmon, (R) Tuna tuna tuna, (Far Right) White Tuna Nigiri. That’s that assholes. I would/did take a woman here but you won’t catch me rollin cholo. Go hogs. Fuck Steve Harvey.

Sushi – Wasabi – Downtown LR

Three years ago I was in a love/hate relationship with sushi and a woman. We loved sushi and had rapport with the staff at Wasabi. Naturally we ate there often. It was a Friday evening and the owners daughter, let’s call her Maddy, was running food and making drinks behind the bar. All seemed normal, except Maddy had a large table of friends she was serving. She seemed extra giddy and upbeat. Her friends table grew louder and louder. They presented Maddy with a gift bag. Maddy raced behind the bar and tore into the bag. Eyes bright she gasped out a hearty chuckle as did her table of comrades. She had my full attention. I had to know what was so funny. Minutes pass and sushi arrived. Several jars of sake later, I was still ready to see what the laughs were all about. Maddy was cranking out drinks barside and her Ma came to her aide. Maddy began to look suspicious. I kept my eyes peeled. As Ma was mixing a cocktail, Maddy dug deep into her gift bag. SLAP! Across Ma’s face. I could not believe my eyes. Did I really just see what I think I see?!? Maddy is gripping a 12″ rubber dildo and barreling out laughs. Ma didn’t know what to think. I don’t think she realized she just got slapped in the face with a phallic object. Long story short, that shit really happened.
On a side note, this sushi happened yesterday.

It was 105 degrees yesterday. This sushi is always on point. Nigiri and standard rolls. I would eat Ginger every meal if I could. 8 outstandings
