Sushi and Sashimi: A Deep Dive into Japanese Delights
Oishi’s menu is a celebration of sushi and sashimi, offering everything from classic rolls to inventive creations. Let’s explore some of the highlights.
Sushi Entrees
For a shared experience, consider the Party Boat or Love Boat. These are large platters overflowing with assorted sushi and sashimi, beautifully arranged and ideal for groups. If you prefer an individual entree, the Sushi Sashimi, Sushi Deluxe, and Sashimi Deluxe offer curated selections. The Sushi Deluxe features a variety of nigiri (slices of fish on vinegared rice), while the Sashimi Deluxe showcases thinly sliced raw fish. The Sushi Sashimi combines both for the best of both worlds. For a more casual option, try the Chirachi, a bowl of seasoned sushi rice generously topped with an assortment of fresh sashimi and colorful toppings.
Sushi and Sashimi A La Carte
Oishi boasts a wide variety of fish and seafood for creating your own sushi and sashimi masterpieces. Popular choices include Tuna (Maguro), Salmon (Sake), Yellowtail (Hamachi), Eel (Unagi), and Shrimp (Ebi). For a truly decadent experience, explore the premium options like Sea Urchin (Uni) and Fatty Tuna (Toro). Don’t forget the roe! Salmon Roe (Ikura) offers a burst of salty, oceanic flavor, while Flying Fish Roe (Tobiko) provides a satisfying crunch. Smelt Roe (Masago) is another popular choice, known for its slightly sweet and mild flavor.
For those new to Japanese cuisine, it’s helpful to understand the difference between sushi and sashimi. Sushi refers to vinegared rice, often formed into small, bite-sized pieces and topped with fish, seafood, or vegetables. The rice is carefully seasoned to create a balanced flavor profile. Sashimi, on the other hand, is simply thinly sliced raw fish, prized for its freshness and delicate taste. It’s typically served with soy sauce and wasabi to enhance the flavors.
Classic Rolls
Oishi’s classic rolls are a great starting point for any sushi adventure. The California Roll, a beloved favorite, combines crab (often imitation crab), creamy avocado, and crisp cucumber. For a spicy kick, try the Spicy Salmon Roll or Spicy Tuna Roll, both featuring tender fish tossed in a fiery spicy mayonnaise. The Rainbow Roll is a feast for the eyes, with an assortment of different fish artfully arranged on top of the roll, creating a vibrant and colorful presentation. The Tempura Bagel is a unique and flavorful option, combining the richness of cream cheese and smoked salmon with the crispy texture of tempura batter. Other notable options include the Mexican Roll (featuring spicy flavors and avocado), the Philly Roll (cream cheese and salmon), the Dragon Roll (eel and avocado), the Shrimp Tempura Roll, the Chicken Tempura Roll, the vegetarian-friendly Avocado or Cucumber Roll, the Salmon Skin Roll (crispy salmon skin and vegetables), and the simple yet satisfying Vegetable Roll.
Oishi Special Rolls
For a truly unforgettable experience, explore Oishi’s Special Rolls. The Lobster Roll is a premium choice, featuring succulent lobster meat prepared and presented with elegance. Other unique and creative rolls include the Orange Blossom (a refreshing combination of citrus and seafood), Sex on The Moon (a tantalizing blend of flavors and textures), Dynamite (a fiery roll with spicy ingredients), Land & Sea (a fusion of meat and seafood), Hurricane (a roll packed with bold flavors), Mango Tango (a tropical-inspired roll with sweet mango), Ninja (a mysterious and flavorful roll), Crazy Tuna (a tuna lover’s dream), Dancing Eel (a delightful combination of eel and avocado), Pink Lady (a visually stunning and flavorful roll), and the Curi Maki (a riceless roll for a lighter option).
