Atami Roll

about the Atami roll, which is a type of sushi that can be found in many restaurants in the USA.

The Atami roll is a specialty roll that typically includes shrimp, avocado, and cucumber as the main ingredients. It is usually rolled inside out, with the rice on the outside and the nori (seaweed) on the inside. The roll is then typically topped with a variety of ingredients, such as masago (smelt roe), eel sauce, and spicy mayo.

The name "Atami roll" comes from the city of Atami, which is located in the Shizuoka prefecture of Japan. Atami is a popular hot springs resort town, and is known for its fresh seafood and beautiful coastline. The roll is named after this town because of its association with high-quality seafood.

To order an Atami roll at a restaurant, you can simply ask the server or sushi chef for it by name. If you have any dietary restrictions or preferences, such as no spicy mayo or no eel sauce, be sure to let the server or sushi chef know so they can accommodate your request.
