I went to Japan for two weeks this summer and had sushi close to every day.
Let me tell ya, sushi here just isn't the same now. Here you get two pieces of nigri for what? Maybe an average of $4? It's about the equivalent to $1 there (100 yen), or a little bit more for more expensive fish. Plus, it's insanely fresh. I have to be a little wary here in Colorado, where you know that it can't be too fresh.
Also, proper sushi etiquette says that you have to eat a piece of ginger between every piece. I had no idea about this until I went over there, but the chefs are offended if you don't cleanse your palate between pieces of sushi.
