| Samurai Sushi is now, Kamura
So yesterday my buddy texts me a picture, to reveal that my (and probably yours too!) all-time favorite sushi joint in the entire world is gone. 
Except actually they've just renamed themselves, to Kamura.
Turns out "Kamura" is a Filipino word. For inexpensive (for also "expletive", apparently  ).
Anyway I thought that was great, that they've now fully embraced the reason that they are so good. Great quality, greater quantity, at fantastic prices, run by Filipinos who are the secret to excellent everything.

That’s not right then … the OG samurai sushi was owned by nammers. Their side store in Richmond (banzai sushi) is still nammer owned and still has the huge ass rolls.

They renamed a while ago but the menu / nammer staff / phone number are the same. I go once in a while for their Maki Combo B.

Will report back the next time I'm in that area on whether it is still Samurai.

Appetizer sashimi + salmon avocado roll = perfect macros lol

Didn't realize it was still there, going to Churchill I frequently hit Samurai of course. I can still remember exactly what the nammers at Cambie look like even though I haven't gone in probably 7 years. Is it still the nammer lady doing cash? I'm close to the one on Fraser but have only gone once in my life and it didn't hit the same as Cambie.

Portions are the same, though prices have gone up. Nothing's changed besides the new name and no dine-in since covid. Maki B Combo is my guilty pleasure - the portions stretched my meal budget during my high school / uni days.

I got my chicken bitch and nammer sushi in Richmond. What more can a man ask for ?! It’s heaven in Richmond
Oh and you guys gotta try village curry in Steveston. Best Indian food by far. It’s so good that there is actual Indians in there all the time. Not just a bunch of vegan Hondaracer’s.

If memory serves me correct, Samurai Fraser is NOT affiliated with Banzai/OG Samurai Sushi Cambie

That would make sense. Fraser Samurai never quite fondled my discerning palette the way Cambie did.

ok no matter how much i wanted to save money and get good value for money when eating out when i was younger, i couldnt do this place more than a few times. the balance of fish and rice is actually unappetizing... like a whole mouth full of tuna and you've only had one bite. also they don't know how to thaw fish properly and it's often semi frozen inside
