Hi,

after being here for over 2 years, i actually never been to a sushi restaurant. even though its probably one of my favorite foods back in the states. I'm pretty familiar with hcmc and most of the main streets. I'm currently residing in binh tan district, i'm not picky BUT need some good recomendations :) I'm plan on going to get some sushi sometime this week to get rid of my craving.

thanks!

An important tip about eating Sushi.
dont be afraid to go inside and speak to the Sushi chef. If he is any nationality besides Japanese be wary.
it takes 10 years to be a qualified Sushi Chef and most of that training is to do with hygiene in preparing raw fish.
We had a huge problem in sydney a few years back with Sushi bars springing up all over Sydney followed by an outbreak of food poisonings. It got so bad that the Japanese Govt sent Sushi Chefs from Japan to educate people as it was giving Sushi a bad name.
