Sushi is made fromcooked rice mixed with vinegar.12The rice is oftenshaped into small balls or rolled into long cylinders. Then, different kinds ofseafood or vegetables are placed on top or inside the rice. Many types of sushiare served in restaurants, and they are prepared by skilled chefs. The fish isalways served very fresh. Special sushi restaurants are often visited bytourists and local people. Sometimes, the sushi is served on a small woodenboat that floats on a small river.
