One that I've heard was not to dip the rice in the sauce but to dip the meat only.

I don't follow etiquette with the ginger though. I use it to ensue the wasabi doesn't burn the roof of my mouth.

I do a silly thing where I put wasabi and ginger on top of the piece of sushi, then dip it in both the spicy mayonnaise and the sweet soy sauce before eating the whole thing heheh

That sounds delicious.

I mean, while there is "proper etiquette", they are likely just happy that you enjoy the sushi. Just as long as you aren't leaving chopsticks standing in rice and those sorts of things.

I have heard the chopsticks standing in rice myth, but I don't know if that is actually a real thing

It is, because of what it means. Basically if you give a passed loved one a meal I think that is how you present it.

That is true. Though sometimes I'm bad and use chopsticks.

Poet I don't know what kind of friends you're looking for but if you want i can probably introduce you to a few good places to meet people by asking some of my friends...that said a lot of those places are probably bars or festivals or like, yoga classes. LOL

I know it's not good to sticky your chopsticks in your rice as they do that at funerals. Hadn't heard about the chopsticks and sushi thing.

I've been using tinypic lately but nothing seems good lately.

Mon - ah yeah, I'm wishing I could have a bunch of irl mene friends but that never seems to work out. Still never met a menewsha before irl.

I use chopsticks for sushi. Some sushi has like cream cheese which makes it ideal to not use hands.

I think I've met a menewshan before, but they were also a gaian and i think thats why we met, not this site. ^^;;

my irl friends don't stick around here as far as i'm aware, i've invited a few like goat (his username is goat) and he's a former roommate of mine
but i don't think he stuck around. Responses were too slow.
