Japanese Etiquette - or, Watch How You Eat Your Sushi!

Just kidding - eat it any way you like - but you might be interested to know that pickled ginger on the plate is not supposed to be a condiment.  While wasabi paste is supposed to be enjoyed WITH the sushi, the pickled ginger is meant as a palate cleanser AFTER you swallow!  Just sayin'...  At Lula's for Lunch...and More! we like our ginger mild, so I pretty much scarf it down with all things sushi/sashimi!
