Kanno - Metairie, LA

Kanno California Shusi Bar is, without a doubt, one of the most adaquate sushi places at which we´ve ever eaten. The sushi is above average, but above average in the sense that Sarah Palin has an above average education. Not exactly somthing to be proud of, but they do rise above most of the field, even it if it just because of the failure of the public school system.

We ordered:

• Crunchy Roll
• Spider Roll
• Protein Roll
• Eel something
• Rainbow maybe?

The Spider monkey roll was hard to eat because of the spider-like shape of the roll (note: I don´t mean difficult to eat on a manual level. What´s difficult about it is remembering it´s not a spider, it´s a crab.) but the inside was deep fried, warm and delicious.

The crunchy rolls were wrapped in rice stickier than Christina Aguilera looks, and was by far tastier than I´d imagine she tastes. Good, but not great.

The protein roll was not wrapped in rice, but soy paper. They basiclly stuffed it with the inside parts of a crunchy roll - always a good idea. I like to do that to myself at every oppertunity. Stuffing my insides with crunchy rolls here was a plesant experience. They were above average, but, again, I think that´s because most places just don´t make sushi very well. The service was adaquate.

Overall this place is reminiscent of a below average blowjob - it´s not amazing, but it´ll get the job done, AND comes with a very satisfying ending. I supposed, aptly so, that not everyone will get to experience an ending such as the one we got. If you´re lucky, and the owner likes the look of you, and the stars align properly during a solar flare intense enough to send gamma radiation to the earth, you just might be treated with the frozen fudge squares of godliness. These things are little frozen fudge squares that take like orgasams. Seriously. Not everyone gets them; we speculate that it has to do with secret Yakuza ties and an attempt to please a sun god.
