Fishy Sushi at Japon

We stopped in at Japon tonight... either we're too critical or food is just getting bad in Denver. We had a spider roll, Philadelphia roll, a spicy yellow tail roll, and tobiko, plus a seaweed salad. Japon seemed like a good potential quick stop after Kelvin's birthday party. Unfortunately, it was a waste of $55.

The oddest thing was that everything tasted like it had sugar in it. How can spicy yellow tail be sweet? The spider roll was like half spider, half California... crispy ends, soggy mushed-crab center. Yuck. The kelp salad was limp and chewy... which is really disappointing because our other option was to drive to Highlands and get the same dish (simple, crisp, and delicious) at Sushi Hai. J didn't have nearly as much sushi as she might have... it just tasted bad.

Sadly, I had to down a shot of straight booze at home to wash out the fishy taste that was left in my mouth. I'm guessing we won't be back.
