Believe or not, I didn’t have my first bite of sushi until I was 21 years old! I think this may have been because I grew up in a smaller city with not much diversity.
Now that I live in Vancouver, it’s almost impossible to avoid great sushi! In more recent years, however, sushi has fallen from my list of frequent foods. I used to find it extremely difficult to find a good Japanese restaurant which could also accommodate gluten-free dining.
I’ve now found another place in a perfect location which can serve up some decent gluten-free sushi. Kibune Sushi is right across from Kitsilano Beach and will provide gluten-free soy sauce upon request.
As with ALL sushi, make sure the staff is aware that they must use a clean cutting board and wash they’re hands when preparing your meal. The chances of cross-contamination can be quite high in sushi places, but if you are careful, there’s no reason you can’t enjoy some rolls or sashimi with everyone else.
