How do sushi, Nigiril and Sashimi differ?

Sashimi is thinly sliced raw meat—usually seafood—that is served without rice. Nigiri is a specific type of sushi made with a slice of raw fish over pressed vinegared rice.  Sushi is vinegared rice that is mixed with other ingredients, which may or may not include raw fish.

Servers happily welcome diners and provide excellent service. Located only 5 minutes outside Eglin’s East Gate, military and civilian workers appreciate DoModachi’s fast lunchtime service.

DoModachi Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar serves both beer and wine, and features a banquet room that seats 30 people.

Ms. Kye is the original owner and operator of the popular Shanghai Chinese Restaurant, which she founded about 20 years ago in Niceville and later leased to another operator for nine years.
