The Sushiko Story

Sushi has been integral to my life since I was a little girl. My mother is Japanese, born and raised in Yokosuka, Japan. She met and married my father, who was stationed there in the Navy. After he retired, our family moved to Poulsbo; this was in the late 70’s. At that time, there were few Asian grocery stores or ethnic grocers. No Asians were living here yet, except the Japanese and Filipino Americans who settled on Bainbridge Island before WWII.
