Our Story

I still remember that day vividly. It was a busy evening at a SUSHI on Boylston st, and I was tasked with taking orders and serving them to the customers. As a new employee, I was still adjusting to the fast-paced environment and the intricacies of sushi preparation.
It was during one particularly hectic moment that I made a mistake. In the midst of a flurry of orders, I accidentally handed a customer a rainbow roll instead of the spider roll they had requested. The customer wasn't pleased, understandably so, and the owner made it clear that I would have to bear the responsibility for my error. I had to pay for the costly mistake, a hefty sum of $17, which was quite a significant amount for me at the time.
Devastated and disappointed with myself, I held the rainbow roll in my hands. It looked beautiful, with rows of vibrant fish and fresh vegetables carefully assembled. Despite my culinary knowledge being limited to the dishes we served at the sushi restaurant I worked at, I knew sushi was often associated with raw fish, and that scared me a little. The thought of consuming raw fish that smelled strongly of the sea was initially off-putting.
However, faced with the reality of having to pay for the roll, I decided to give it a try. Cautiously, I took my first bite. To my surprise, the taste was far from what I had expected. The combination of flavors and textures was exquisite. The freshness and tenderness of the fish combined with the subtle sweetness of the vegetables and the delicate tang of the rice created a harmonious symphony of flavors in my mouth.
With each subsequent bite, my apprehension dissipated, and my fascination with sushi grew. I could appreciate the artistry and craftsmanship that went into each roll. It was a moment of enlightenment that changed my perspective on sushi entirely. From that day forward, I became a devoted fan of sushi, constantly exploring new varieties and flavor combinations.
Little did I know that this mistake would become the catalyst for my deep love and passion for sushi. It was a valuable lesson learned through an unexpected turn of events. Today, as the founder of ROLL SUSHI, I am grateful for that $17 mistake. It opened my eyes to the remarkable world of sushi, and I am determined to share that passion and appreciation with others through our sushi creations at ROLL SUSHI.
