Give your taste buds a break from the norm; let them have something different for a change of pace. Sushi is a great way to broaden your horizons and experience something new. First, you have to try sushi, which means you will have to buy sushi.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Step1
Look up restaurant listings. Because acquiring quality fresh fish can be hard due to location, a restaurant will be the way to go.
Step2
Find a restaurant that specializes in sushi first. Going to an authentic Japanese restaurant can save you from making your first sushi experience your last.
Step3
Ask your server what they recommend. He or she will tell you the special of the day and what fish is the freshest. You will want the fish that arrived that day, if at all possible.
Step4
Order from the sushi menu, a slip of paper where you simply mark the desired amount of a particular item.
Step5
Start with California rolls. They contain no raw fish, but will offer you the chance to experience many of the flavors you get when you buy sushi.
Step6
Place yourself in the chef's hands. Allow him to make recommendations for you and to serve you what he thinks is the best sushi in his restaurant. Trust the staff and the chef. They are there to make your experience a good one and to introduce you to a new culture and a new way of eating.
Step7
Try a new sushi every time you enter a restaurant. Start with the tuna then move on to the spicy tuna. Also try the yellow tail, Red Clam, Eel, Mackerel, Octopus, Squid and of course both cooked and raw shrimp.
