For Lunch Today...

It's hot and humid right now in The Big Easy, which is a great excuse to eat raw fish. One of the best sushi lunch specials in town is on St. Charles just a few blocks from Lee Circle at Sushi Brothers, where I can't say that I have ever had anything but the freshest fish.

The 4 Roll Special is a steal at $10.50 - 1/2 roll each of california, crunchy, dynamite, and fresh salmon rolls. If you favor nigiri over rolls, the Sushi Special offers seven pieces of assorted nigiri and a snowcrab roll for $11.50. Both of these lunch specials include a bowl of clear soup and a simple salad with ginger dressing to start.

But my favorite dish at Sushi Brothers is the FEMA Roll - fresh salmon, snow crab, asparagus, avocado, and tempura flakes wrapped in soy paper and then topped with spicy tuna and the house special mayo sauce.

Trust me: if you're working downtown and are hungry for sushi, Sushi Brothers is worth the drive to bypass Horinoya.
