Hey, completely get what you’re saying about fish being or smelling too fishy but actually you don’t get that with sashimi because all the fish is raw and fresh so it barely even smells fishy. You should give it another go and see if you like it!

But Japanese cuisine doesn’t just mean sushi and sashimi - there are a lot of other incredible dishes like black cod, teriyaki chicken, wagyu beef and so on. Definitely a lot to explore :-)
