With Mai Tai Sushi & Bar having opened earlier this month, I was anxious to see what might be missing from the already strong Worcester sushi scene and was pleasantly surprised by the list of unique makimono rolls. Although Mai Tai has the safe standards known to the casual sushi consumer, it’s list of special rolls offer something a little different, including the Fire Dragon roll. Combining two sea favorites, the Fire Dragon includes two shrimp tempura with cream cheese, cucumber, and avocado rolled into a soya bean wrap. The roll is then topped with baked spicy salmon, scallion, eel sauce, and a flavorful spicy Japanese mayo. The textures, flavors, and presentation are a great example of how to bring something new to an already impressive sushi scene here in Worcester.
