those are chinese. Never buy fish from chinese supermarkets. I am japanese and only eat sashimi from fish that you just fished or by respectable distributor.

You don't need to go to an Asian market. Just get grade A tuna fillets from a seafood store or maybe even a good grocer. Americans use it, too, to make tuna steaks/seared ahi tuna.

The only place ive seen in the 757 with sushi grade fish is The Fresh Market in Hilltop. Though, I think their selection of fish might be small, but they do serve fresh sushi on hand so I could be wrong about the size of their selection. Go check it out. Its my favorite grocery market to shop at.

Suggest a good seafood store, if youre in the tidewater area. Unfortunately I dont know any, except farm fresh.
