JPan Sushi - Ordered in 1/29/10 - 3.25 Forks

Jpan 287 5th ave.  Brooklyn, NY 11215

JPan is another in a long line of reasonably priced, decent quality sushi joints in Park Slope. I generally like this place as I think it's good value for what you are getting and they take AmEx. Dan and I had remembered that the last time we ordered, it was a lot of food, but for some reason, we did not learn from our mistake this time. We ordered the Japanese Veggie Spring rolls (standard fried spring roll fare) $4.50, a Spicy Roll Combo with miso soup ($15) and an additional Yellow River Roll ($12). When we got the food, it looked like it was enough for 3-4 people. The Spicy roll combo came with spicy tuna, salmon, and crunchy triple fish roll. The triple fish roll was enormous and too big to fit in one bite. The other 2 rolls were slightly more normal sized, but I thought it had a bit too much rice on the outside. Then there was the Yellow River Roll...normally, rolls come in 6 or 8, this one came in 12 pieces! And they were also huge and difficult to eat in 1 bite. I was a bit disappointed in this roll as I think there wasn't enough fish and in fact one of the pieces had no fish at all! It was just a bunch of rice..I think it's probably the end piece, but they shouldn't have put it in there if there's nothing in it! All in all the total bill was $34.30 and we were completely stuffed at the end. It's definitely more "American" style, big pieces of sushi, but not a bad value in the end.
