I’ve lived in Mexico for about three years. While tacos are the top favorite, sushi is a close second. However, most of the sushi places here, nearly 98.75% of them are TRASH!!

Every sushi place I went to in Mexico City was outstanding. These were usually higher end places (but still way cheaper than similar places would be in the US). I find most places that focus on quantity over quality are trash no matter where you are.
Just like how you don’t eat tacos in Japan
Because it’s Mexico, Itamae (Sushi Chefs) don’t particularly flock to Mexico to make a living.
I guess it depends what part of Mexico you are at. The town I am from does not have great sushi. Most places that pop up are closer to fast food joints where they serve low quality sushi, and the “higher end” places are really just marginally better. But, if you go to the big city near by, you can find really good sushi places. In my town there are no sushi chef’s just ordinary cooks making sushi. I believe the good sushi chef’s with Japanese food background head to the bigger cities.
how specifically is it terrible? I lived in a coastal area of the Middle East for years and sushi was terrible there, too. It wasn’t a freshness issue–fresh fish existed and tasted good at other restaurants. I don’t know if it was the taste/texture/quality of the rice, or if no restaurant could get sauces right, or if the cuts of fish weren’t right… or all of the above. It was just *off*
Uh you’re at a fucking sushi train. That’s why.
I mean, if its bad (in your opinion), then you’d have to tell us
I would like to see some Mexican street food sushi. Like roasted grasshoppers with peppers or like a mangonada roll. No need for fish on top, I just think it would be an interesting take
Come on OP…
Because like most western sushi it’s not really sushi but something completely different. Mostly salmon, tempura, avocado, and either a mayo-based sauce or something sweet and syrupy.
Looks good to me 🤷♂️
Same reason you don’t get chinese food in western europe.
Why is Mexican food such shit in Japan
The same reason why it’s hard/rare to find good tacos in Japan?
#Because you touch yourself at night.
How do people come onto this website and confidently and casually write the dumbest shit anyone has heard.
Probably cuz it’s a Mexican take on American sushi lol
Conveyor belt sushi is typically not the best quality
Murder the fucking cameraman please.
Sinaloan sushi totally changed my views on localization of dishes. It can be incredible
We have excellent sushi
Dm me if you want recommendations
Idk the Mexicans here make it pretty well 🤷🏼♂️
To be fair, I didn’t see any sushi.
Because ur cheap
r/killthecameraman
… hate too be that guy but it’s Mexico so they’re not known for sushi lol
Would probably agree with you if you’d shown us any sushi at all instead of plates that are partially covered going by… also, what the hell are you doing there if it sucks???
Because all of the good Mexican sushi chefs moved to the US.
I wish I could see the sushi.
