One thought on “What happened to sushi in Australia?”

  1. It’s interesting how sushi has adapted to various cultures! In Australia, sushi is often served as half-cut rolls—perhaps to make it easier to eat on the go, especially since sushi is a popular takeaway option. The style may also reflect local preferences for convenience and bite-sized portions.

    As for chopsticks, while they’re commonly used in traditional sushi dining, many people in Australia opt for forks or even just pick up the rolls with their fingers. It’s all about what’s more practical for the setting. However, authentic sushi experiences can still be found in many restaurants where you can enjoy the full sushi ritual with soy sauce, ginger, wasabi, and chopsticks. It seems like there’s a blend of cultures happening, which is part of what makes food so exciting!
