That is a California roll.
I love ALL SUSHI that does not contain fermented soy beans (ie natto).

Negi Toro is fatty tuna? (I'm so bad with words!!)
They didn't have it where I just went to lunch. 
Hard to find!!

Oddly enough, I'm a big tuna fan. I say oddly because otherwise I dispise the taste of tuna, and the smell will drive me from a room.
Tuna sushi, however....mmmmmm.....

Negi toro is the fatty cut from the underside of tuna. It's quite delicious. It's also an expensive cut of the fish and can go from anywhere to $7 - $15 for one. But it's well worth it, in my opinion.

love sushi. discovered it when i was living near nyc. down there, they have sushi in the mall foodcourts, and more jap than chinese restaurants. at our elem school, when a math class took a poll of the kids favorite foods, i was so delighted and shocked to see that *sushi* won over hotdogs, pizza, and pb&j. nyc kids are way cosmo. in my hometown (roch ny), i wasn't aware of a single japanese restaurant growing up. now there are 4 that i know of, and the local grocery stores carry rolls daily. my family still won't try it tho, and my dad's a fisherman! soooo whitebread.

Oooh sushi!
*looks at StillFlyin with a raised eyebrow* You love all sushi, huh? *pushes a plate over* Well then, have some natto nigiri sushi, some corn salad (corn with mayo) nigiri sushi, and the squid innards ones (I know a place that makes all of those). You can have my share.
Growing up in Hawaii, where a lot of people imigrated here to work on the sugar plantations I have a leaning towards inari sushi (not those teeny weeny ones I've posted -- ones big enough to fit in your hand) and maki sushi.
Nigiri types...ooh...amaebi, fresh ikura (salmon roe), fresh tobiko (flying fish roe), sea urchin, most of the fish ones, anago, unagi....almost everything, minus the egg one and the ones I've mentioned above.
PR: Have you had anago? It's another eel...ocean-water eel, I think (I can't remember if unagi was fresh, anago is the opposite). It's not as covered with the unagi sauce, but most places let you add the sauce to your liking.
One request, though Mima: Could you please not use "Jap" when referring to Japanese? It's still considered a slur even though it's been 60+ years since that war. Thanks

OHHHHH!!!! I love sushi!!!
My favorite is Spicy Tuna with extra spice and some more wasbi on top of that!!! YUMMY!!!! I go to a sushi bar in Ann Arbor that makes wasbi suhie, they pretty much pour a wasbi sauce all over california rolls, they are really yummy and fun to eat with friends! It's fun to see if they can eat one with out inhaling the wasbi, if you do, prepare for tears!!!
YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!
Capture
Capture me if you dare.

I have had anago, and I think it's pretty good, but it doesn't have that flavor unagi has. It's almost like a completely different fish! (well, it is. More salty from living in the salt water and all...)
Yes, tuna sushi. That is maguro. First sushi I ever had, at age six. Much better raw than canned, that's for sure
