OK. So my brother lives in a small town in Washington State along the Columbia River. He is ecstatic that a sushi-ya has opened up there and sent me a photo of the “sushi burrito”. I am a long-term resident of Japan and asked him to send in the photo. Now this “burrito” or “maki” or whatever would never be found near a sushi-ya here in Japan, nor have I seen anything similar in the 40 years that I’ve been here…anywhere. It’s obviously imitation crab meat though that is common here. I love traditional sushi in all forms but I also enjoy other takes and forms of sushi, whether it’s maki made with local product or NY sushi trying hard to be the “best”. I like it all and to this new restaurant in Smallville, WA. I say “Go for it!” In times of $8.00 hamburgers the sushi burrito has made its grand debut.

I had a sushi burrito in Canada 7 or 8 years ago. It’s a fun concept but I think it was a little harder to eat than small rolls haha. I enjoyed it though.

Shit I’d still eat it.

Sushirritos are a blasphemy.

Imagine paying money for an uncut oversized futomaki

Fuck it, I’d try it. Not a huge fan of avocado, though, so I’d probably get a different kind.

Sushi burritos are great
But not this one, it’s like entirely fake crab wtf

Would. As far as I’m concerned, the worst part about this is the fake wasabi, and that stuff is all over the place. Fake crab is delicious. Plus, these usually cost about the same as a regular maki ($12-16) but are way more filling.

Tried something like this but it was a spicy tuna version, and ingredients were more balanced than what this looks like.

I’ve had a better version of this before (better filling ratio) It wasn’t bad! Kind of like a poke bowl to-go. 🤷🏼♀️

There’s a place that makes really nice ones here. Love it when I feel the need for raw fish.

We had a place nearby called Katsu Sushi Burrito that made these. They were so good, but sometimes hard to finish in a single sitting. I was saddened to see they closed, because even though we have several sushi places where I live, nothing is quite like a sushi burrito

I used to get these for a quick lunch on the road. Can be eaten with one hand and no utensils.

My main gripe is the excessive usage of krab.

I personally can’t get behind imitation crab 😭. I’ve tried it so many times and it’s just not for me. I love real crab way too much.

This is too American for me
