As you can see the above picture, this is the common sushi plate you can have in a Japanese restaurant in Japan. You don’t see sushi like “California Roll”, or “Rainbow rolls”. Although we eat sushi rolls, the majory of Japanese people prefer eating sushi nigiri, rather rather rolls. See how they are all nigiri sushi.
