  • OMAKASE by Weike Wang June 11, 2018
    WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25 OMAKASE By Weike Wang June 11, 2018 https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2018/06/18/omakase?verso=true The couple decided that tonight they would go out for sushi. Two years ago, they’d met online. Three months ago, they’d moved in together. Previously, she’d lived in Boston, but now she lived in New York with him. The woman was a research analyst at a bank downtown. The man was a ceramic-pottery instructor at a studio uptown. Both were in their late thirties, and neither of them wanted kids. Both enjoyed Asian cuisine, specifically sushi, specifically omakase. It was the element of surprise that they liked. And it suited them in different ways. She got nervous looking at a list of options and would second-guess herself. He enjoyed going with the flow. What is the best choice? she’d ask him when flipping through menus with many pages and many words, and he’d reply, The best choice is whatever you feel like eating at the moment. Before they got there, the man had described the restaurant as a “hole-in- the-wall.” He had found it on a list of top sushi places in central Harlem. Not that there were many. So, instead of top sushi places, it may just have been a list of all sushi places. Be prepared, he said. Nothing is actually a hole-in-the-wall, she replied. Yet the restaurant was as the man had described: a tiny room with a sushi bar and a cash register.

Many accounts of sushi’s US establishment fore- acceptance; sushi; United ground the role of a small number of key actors, yet underplay States the role of a complex web of large-scale factors that provided the context in which sushi was able to flourish. This article critically reviews existing literature, arguing that sushi’s US popularity arose from contingent, long-term, and gradual processes. It exam- ines US newspaper accounts of sushi during 1945–1970, which suggest the discursive context for US acceptance of sushi was considerably more propitious than generally acknowledged.

Mexican food is one monolithic cuisine, as is Chinese, Italian, and of course Japanese. Every Japanese restaurant serves miso soup, various tempura items, teriyaki, sushi, etc. The fact that Japanese cuisine is multi-faceted (as are most cuisines) and quite diverse doesn’t generally come through to the public—the American homogenization machine reduces an entire culture’s culinary contributions to a simple formula that can fit on one menu.
