Markers of a Good Sushi Restaurant
Markers of a Good , Sushi Restaurant.
HuffPost spoke with sushi chefs to find out what makes a good, and bad, sushi establishment.
Sushi Rice.
Expertly prepared sushi rice retains its delicate, fluffy texture.
The seasoning is perfectly balanced with a touch of sweet, tart and brininess.
It is served at about 37 degrees Celsius ― body temperature, Hidekazu Tojo, the chef at Tojo’s Restaurant in Vancouver, via HuffPost.
Bad sushi rice would be "undercooked,
too sweet, too salty or too dry.".
Seafood Quality.
If the server or chef highlights seasonal sushi in addition to the menu, that is a good sign for the sushi program, Masaharu Morimoto, who owns Japanese restaurants
around the world, via HuffPost.
Warning signs for poor fish
quality are things like discoloration, browning and a lack of firmness, Elijah Lehrer, sushi chef and vice president of culinary
at Bamboo Sushi, via HuffPost.
Chef Skill.
Skillful sushi chefs can also
indicate a good sushi restaurant.
Fresh grating wasabi for some sushi courses is a good sign here.
Describing each piece of fish in its Japanese and English name shows the attention to detail there, too, Masaharu Morimoto, who owns Japanese restaurants
around the world, via HuffPost.
“Poorly made sushi shows a lack of passion and good training,” Morimoto said.
.
Price.
Good quality seafood comes
at a cost, and unfortunately, costs continue
to rise.
Offering sushi at very low prices suggests that the restaurant may not be
sourcing high-quality ingredients, Hidekazu Tojo, the chef at Tojo’s Restaurant in Vancouver, via HuffPost.
The experts say cleanliness and hospitality are also things to consider, just as you likely
would with other food establishments
New Study Supports Evidence , That Summer 2023 Was the , Hottest in Over 2 Millennia.

According to an analysis of tree rings going all the
way back to year one, 2023 was the hottest summer
in the Northern Hemisphere in over 2000 years. .
HuffPost reports that scientists analyzed over
10,000 tree rings to determine temperature
levels dating back two millennia.
The team from the University of Cambridge and the
Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz found that the
summer of 2023 was 2.2 degrees Celsius above average.
The temperature from June to August 2023 was
compared to average temperatures from the
same period between year one and 1890. .
When you look at the long sweep
of history, you can see just how
dramatic recent global warming is. , Ulf Büntgen, Cambridge Department of Geography, via HuffPost.
2023 was an exceptionally hot
year, and this trend will continue
unless we reduce greenhouse
gas emissions dramatically, Ulf Büntgen, Cambridge Department of Geography, via HuffPost.
HuffPost reports that 2023 saw global record-breaking
ocean temperatures, widespread wildfires
across the continent and scorching heat in cities.
It’s true that the climate is always
changing, but the warming in 2023,
caused by greenhouse gases, is additionally
amplified by El Niño conditions, so we end up
with longer and more severe heat waves
and extended periods of drought, Jan Esper, professor at the Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz
and lead author of the paper, via HuffPost.

Canadian authorities are issuing urgent warnings to all residents still in a British Columbia town to evacuate immediately, despite better weather conditions, following earlier evacuations prompted by a rapidly spreading wildfire. The fire, ignited on Friday, surged nearly twofold in size by the next day, engulfing approximately 17 square kilometres (4,200 acres). BC Wildfire Service maps depict the blaze raging just a few kilometres west of Fort Nelson's city boundaries. Nestled in the far northeastern reaches of British Columbia, approximately 1,600 kilometres (995 miles) from Vancouver, lies Fort Nelson. This remote town, along with the Fort Nelson Indian Reserve, is home to a combined population of about 3,000 residents
