Eventually readers might ask why this site has sushi in the title.
From time to time my co writer and myself go out for sushi. We have for the last several years been on a quest to find the perfect sushi restaurant in Nashville. Among other things we will chronicle that quest here.
Nashville is a long way from the ocean, and a long way from the orient. Austin, TX claims to be the live music capital of America, but Nashville is the music capital of the whole fucking world. The slowest night for music in Nashville is Tuesday when there are never more than 2 or 3 major and mid major acts trying out new material at venues around town. Nashville is known for country, but americana, alt, bluegrass, blues, jazz, opera, classical, punk, emo, techno, industrial and the drunken rumblings of crack heads can all be found here at any time. We aren’t going to write about that though. None of those folks can be found playing at sushi bars. (Which isn’t to say there won’t be the occasional celebrity sighting, like Emmylou Harris at Petsmart or Keith Urban at Cracker Barrel.)
That Nashville is along way from the orient makes great sushi a challenge to find. There are numerous sushi bars in Nashville and more opening all the time though, so there is a future in sushi reviews here.
