The official Grand Opening of Matthew's!

Apparently sushi does look like that...

I'm not sure how an article that is really nothing more than an advertisement, that has no pictures, and then goes on to state inaccuracies, such as sushi containing tropical fruits, "proves" anything. No, that's not a real Japanese thing. Sure, it's a Jamaican interpretation... but it should not be confused with actual Japanese style sushi. The definition of sushi is vinegared rice with raw fish, or sometimes vegatables. Not fruit, not cooked fish, and definitely not chicken. If I ordered sushi and they brought me out a plate that looked like that pic... I would find it hilarious.

I get it. It's hard to open a restaurant anywhere, and in Negril, probably exponentially so. But... that's some odd looking sushi.

I wish them well. Looking forward to additional options to watch hockey next spring.

The article I linked is entitled "MATTHEW’S SUSHI BAR - Sushi is more than raw fish". which I felt summed up my post perfectly. Possibly you are confusing sushi with sashimi which is raw fish with rice.
