I was wondering that too. Why do I have a feeling this would completely blow my food budget for a week or more.

I’m guessing at least 70-80 if not more

Surely not above 50, at least in Aus.

Australia has well managed seafood stocks. Seafood is quite affordable. Add to that the massive amount of competition. I live in the middle of suburbia and google maps has given like 7 different sushi places within a 5 min drive. Sub 50 AUD for sure. So <25 pounds or <35 USD.

Yeah I agree I was thinking around $30-50, those rolls look tiny and not many nigiri

5 California rolls with different sauces and 6 actual pieces of nigiri and 1 salmon roll. I wouldn’t pay more than 40 for this.

Definitely not 5 cali rolls, if anything there’s 2 max

But it's a fair point that five out of those six rolls have massive pieces of avocado in them. I like avocado as much as the next person, but at that point there's not a lot of fish in those rolls.

You’re right, avocado is extremely overused in the west, but a lot of people like it that way so to each their own

Are sushi that expensive in the us?

Side question: does those look good on a US standard?

Spare a cheat day and go to an all you can eat Sashimi buffet I guess. That's what I did.
