My husband and I are flying out of Vancouver this evening to visit London, England, for the first time. It's our first time in the continent of Europe. We are excited! Before that, we are grabbing lunch at Sushivan.
We both order bento boxes, and they're such a satisfying lunch. I need rice before leaving the comforts of home.

The unagi, or grilled eel, offers a sweet, smoky richness beautifully complemented by crab meat's delicate sweetness. The cool, crisp cucumber and creamy avocado provide a refreshing contrast, while the tobiko, or flying fish roe, adds delightful pops of briny saltiness.

To tie it all together, the unagi sauce drizzled over the roll offers a luscious, savoury-sweet glaze that enhances the overall flavour profile. These ingredients create a harmonious combination of sweet, savoury, and umami notes, making the Caterpillar Roll a delightful and well-balanced sushi experience.
