As much as I’d like to admit I ate sea urchin vulva, spoppy, that’s not quite right. Though, my dad’s guess of yellow-crunchy-stuff is pretty much spot-on for most things I eat here.
I can’t remember all the details from my lunch at Vegetable Sushi Potager, probably because I ate those little niblets quickly. Here is what I do know, from left to right:
1. OK, rough start, I don’t remember this one. It was a roll of something vegetable-y. Then gobo, aka burdock with ume sauce; white asparagus; stuffed teeny tiny tomato; and sweet potato mush with apple on black rice.
2. Curry with tomato; grilled erengi mushrooms; carrot puree; grilled leek-like negi; and tomato with mozzorella and roasted red pepper sauce.
Yum? Yum.

Can you name that sushi?
A special prize to anyone who can get all 10 right. But I’m pretty sure you can’t. Mwaa ha ha…

Damn! How’d you get that so fast?!
Let’s just say I know my way around a bucket of chum.
I can’t even give you 1. Some of the sushi looks interesting. Good luck to all the sushi partakers out there.
Okay – let’s try this:
top picture from left – 1. tuna rull; 2. petrified wood sounds good;3. bamboo shoot with yama gobo (pickled burdock root) on top; 4. salmon tomato; 5.no-cluefish
bottom picture: 1. tomato croquette with mayo; 2. yokan; 3. black seaweek wrap with uni (sea urchin); 4. tuna with pepper; 5. yellow-crunchy-stuff
How’d I do?
Dang, I was sure that one in the bottom-right corner, second picture, was durian!!
I opened my chips tonight with pizza while watching the Twins. Had to wait for an evening when Lynn wasn’t home to smell them 🙂 Actually, did you try them? They’re really quite good; I’d buy them again. Sort of a nutty flavor, meaty, smell isn’t that strong…
Thanks for sending them!!!!
I didn’t try them, sadly. The next time I’m in a durian-approved country, I’ll grab you some more! Honestly, I was a little worried the rest of the stuff in that box would smell like durian too, and that we’d both get in trouble!
