Custom Sushi and Rolls
Located at
521 E. Liberty St
Designed for
the College town, with locations around by the University of Michigan and
Michigan State campuses.
I stopped
into a store down the street to pick up something I needed and was chatting with
the sales guy. As we talked about lunch
he mentioned Tamaki. I still went to the
place I intended that day, but felt the need to come back and try this spot.
They have a
Cafeteria set up:
From the
reviews I have seen people either Love it or Hate it. I personally am Not a fan.
People who
did like it seemed to like the cafeteria style, build your own sushi style of
it. That is not a feature I like, but I
am not 20 anymore either.
I went with
items I felt comfortable with comparing to other places I have gotten sushi and
other Asian dishes at.
Salmon Roll
and Dumplings:
The Salmon
roll had no flavor, very disappointing.
I thought the
technique in preparing the dumplings was interesting. They had them frozen and popped them in the
deep fryer to cook and make them crispy.
If the filling had more flavor I would have liked them more.
I personally
have no interest in visiting again, not terrible, just fell flat for me.
More
information is on their website: http://tamakiroll.com/
The photos of the food on their site give the impression of real plates, implying a sit-down service environment. You order in the cafeteria style line, and my plate was disposable.
