They sell these at Ward Marukai. Never tried one, but now I will!

If you showed someone that photo without a description, they’d probably think it was a slice of Lasagna or Casserole!

I was just in Marukai today after work. They had this same broiled sushi labeled (as you mentioned) “Dynamite Sushi”. Takai desu - $6.00 for a (small) bento-sized tray. I went to Todai for lunch today (hajime-te desu), so I was already “sushi’d out” and didn’t buy it. Next time.

I also took note of the prices for Tsukemono (great selection!) while there. Prices range from $5-20 per pound (avg. $4-7/container). Takai desu nei. A little goes a long way though, so not too bad. Plus it keeps in the fridge really well.

i tried the dynamite from marukai .. just okay…yes takai desu yo!

have you seen the tsukemono at marukai that is all chopped up in little pieces? i love them. they had takuan, ume and the shiso flavored eggplant/cucumber. its good to eat it with rice. yes, thank goodness they last long.

That Sriacha hot chili sauce that you decided to add to this recipe was an excellent idea, Lindy! You don’t even like your food hot and spicy, but you somehow always seem to know just the right thing to add to turn a good recipe into a great one!!
