Take Out Edition - Sushi


Sushi Family Express
35-48 Union Street Flushing, NY (718) 321-2231


Last night me and Bobby got some sushi. I LOVE sushi.

I found this place back when i was in high school. I used to eat there like 3 times a week because it was so close, cheap and GOOD. They serve more than sushi, they also do box combinations. My favorite is chicken teriyaki or pork katsu (pork cutlet breaded in panko). My favorite roll is the California roll. They make it very differently then the way most sushi spots do, instead of chunks of crab meat they mince it up and mix it with a little mayo. It keeps the crabmeat from getting dry and tasting like cardboard. It's addicting. I've tried a few other rolls and their also really good but nothing beats the California roll. Pictured above is Bobby's Boston roll (bottom), which he claimed was DELICIOUS and the top 2 rows are the California rolls.

The place itself is a hole in the wall and it only has a few tables so your best bet is doing take out. The guys there are really nice and friendly. When you go in and they happen to have a table; dine in, you usually get salad, cucumbers, edamame and seaweed. At the end of your meal they usually offer you a free cup of green tea ice cream. The 6 piece rolls go from $3-$8 each and platters during lunch are usually $7-$9 and it comes with your choice of meat, pork katsu and 6 pc of California roll, you can substitute the pork cutlet or rolls for a couple other options.

This place gets a solid 9.







Pop-Bar tonight! Updates tomorrow!
