Chakin Zushi- Vegetable Sushi Wrapped with Thin Omlet

In our language, Sushi has a couple way to spell. One is "The best way to eat fish", and other is "Food which manages celebration". I belive that one of the reasons why Sushi becomes a popular Japanese food is that we serve Sushi to foreigners often as a food to celebrate to get to know them.

Sushi also has many different styles. Here is one of them!
