I know what sashimi is, but can someone give me the literal meaning of sashimi?

I’ll be in the city on Saturday night and am in the mood for the best sashimi I can find. I’ll be by myself so sitting at a sushi bar ordering by the piece(s) suits me just fine. Was thinking of places like Morimoto...

So I was defrosting some ahi steaks that are going to get seared up for dinner, and noticed that the package says "sashimi grade." But as far as I can figure out, there’s no USDA or other grading system in place for fish. I...

I am stuck in Barcelona for a few more weeks (I know, tough!) and am hankering for good sushi/sashimi. Most of the japanese places here suck. Rather than using local fish, most use the usual suspects (tuna, salmon, etc.) that are...
