    My gf treated me to a sushi dinner for my 30th birthday. But just not any sushi. She took me to Teruzusushi with Chef Taka. He came over to NYC for a mastercard special event and my gf booked it as a surprise birthday gift. The best part was, we were the only customers in that time slot. There were seating for 12 people. It was just me, her, Chef Taka, and his assistant/interpreter. We had one on one time with a master sushi chef. We took so many pictures of the food and with him because he kept insisting on it. It was an experience I will never forget for the rest of my life. And yes, we got the chopsticks as a souvenir.

(yeah its not technically entirely safe to do it without freezing it). I love sushi so much. I hope you get to try sushi some day.

      ​@@Alan_is_here​ interesting I didn't know that. How funny it is that my non Armenian half comes from an uncommon pagan European background that practiced eating only raw meat and that cooked meat was essentially equivalent to haram (I do not practice that and I identify with my Armenian half although to be honest i am not a practicing Christian either i just prefer to treat others as kind as i can and help those in need when I am able and hope that embracing love is enough for whatever God may exist)
