Japan Serves Giant Sushi Rolls
When eating sushi, the thickness of rolls can vary depending on the ingredients used to make the roll. Maki rolls are on the thinner side with one maybe two ingredients while futomaki rolls contains two or more ingredients. Roll from the chef’s selection or specialty selection of a sushi menu are futomaki style and sometimes even stuffed to the maximum.
At one sushi Long Island restaurant one of my favorite rolls is lobster salad, mango and cucumber inside. It is then topped with spicy tuna, nuts and wasabi mayo. It is a seriously thick roll. However there is one place in Japanese restaurant that can put any restaurant to shame with the size of their sushi.
The restaurant, located in Aichi, is known for their jumbo futomaki roll. It contains 20 different types of fish with various other ingredients and is rolled up on a piece of nori measuring a little over six and a half feet. The roll costs a whopping 15,000 yen, or about $195 U.S. dollars, and if you want one you must place your order with at least a two day notice.
