CORT - Wild Ginger Asian Fusion

It’s sushi time again. I had some errands to run in Ithaca and we usually get take out from somewhere around there since there are more options than in Cortland. Caleb went for a sub but I was feeling sushi and my list for Wild Ginger is coming to an end so I figured I’d finish it off and try the last roll I’ve been eyeing.

Today’s order is the Vegetarian Dragon Roll which has fried sweet potato inside topped with avocado. Of course, I’ve decided on my staples, Ebi and Ika sushi and I was not disappointed. The Vegetarian dragon roll was a great choice. I didn’t know about sweet potato rolls before but a few years ago my cousins introduced them to me and I thought it they would be a little too dense or weird to have a potato inside a sushi roll but I actually love the mixture and welcome it in contrast to lighter fish flavors. This dragon roll wasn’t too heavy but it was a good filler that didn’t leave me hungry afterward. There was a nice warm crispy inside texture and of course a creamy avocado exterior. There was a salty sauce drizzled on top already so this didn’t really need any extra soy and stood well on its own. I like this combination together and I’m happy with the meal overall. I'm still in newlywed bliss with my Ika discovery so I was happy with that texture and flavor alongside the veggie dragon roll and the ebi. A successful dinner indeed.
