We Found Sushi

Do you ever get a craving for Chick-Fil-A on Sunday's? Well, despite the fact that I have never wanted a #1 with American cheese and extra pickles so bad, I knew I wasn't going to find such an establishment here. One craving that I didn't prepare for was my love of sushi.

Once an evil food in my mind changed once I went to Blue Sushi for the first time. My heart felt like it wouldn't love anything so great again. Come to find out my heart does love a lot of things. Moving to a different country where sushi isn't a "thing" made me weary when my friend Alex, love you, and I decided to go look for this delectable treat in Skopje, Macedonia. If you can remember the title of this post you'll figure out that we did indeed find a place that could roll eel and rice together. Our late lunch discovery took place at the lovely SushiCo.

While reading through the thick menu of SushiCo, Alex and I were unfortunately serenaded by a pop version of the Star Bangled Banner...ugh...the bar across the street was playing Michael Jackson. We would've been okay with Michael. Alex proceeds to ask our waitress what she recommends, in short she let us know there are several options on the menu and if we wanted to share, there was an option for that too. #gous

After prowling through the menu I decided to go with an eel and avocado roll as well as a Tokyo Drift roll (It was being featured and I said why not). Both of these rolls were cooked because what Black person you know out here eating raw fish? I don't eat raw fish in the states so what makes y'all think ima do it here.. nah.

On a bubblier note, the carbonation of my Coca-Cola was quite spot on. Not the piercing carbonation the Sprite at Mickey D's holds; that is borderline scary.

At this point our food had arrived and we took Instagram worthy pictures to show proof of this maybe miracle. I don't eat ginger, but Alex said the ginger tasted like ginger. That was good news for SushiCo. My sushi rolls were... good. You can't really mess up avocado and eel, it tasted like avocado and eel #win The Tokyo Drift roll was.... well I won't order it again. No it wasn't bad it was just overrated. The crunchy stuff on top was basically shredded potato chips. When I was done there was a pile of potato chip strips that adorned my plate... yeah that's a no go. Next time a California roll will do. Yes you read that right, I said next time.

Considering that this really is our only option to fulfill our fish wrapped in rice craving, we'll make another appearance... before we leave in June.
