Mile 17637: What IS it with the high price of sushi in West Michigan. Not Wild Chef, Holland.

Okay, really love the restaurants in West Michigan that serve an Americanized version of sushi. Sushi is an international heritage and a chef with focus and training can make good sushi. That said, I am sure the oriental world reserves its secrets of sushi to an inner circle, with apprenticeships and initiations required. I might be wrong by insisting, but if I am to sample fugu, I want a chef trained in Japan.

However, and I love this restaurant, at this establishment I will not name,  the price of a California Roll comes in at ten, eleven dollars. As you can see, Wild Chef in Holland delivers the same recipe at 4.50 a roll. The Wild Chef strikes me as having greater depth and breadth at their sushi bar than Rockwell / Republic. I fail to remember sashimi, such as really good and expensive tuna slices, upon their menu.

Well, enough ranting has been expressed. My hot pot is here.
