Burning Man 1996: Sushi in the Desert

From my days in Emergency Medicine I know the value of having small bills. (After an earthquake the ATMs don't work.) In my pack I have a hundred dollars or so in two dollar bills, my favorite denomination.

US $2 bill

Those small bills came in very handy when we met the Sushi Girls. That's right, you heard it correctly, sushi in the desert of Burning Man.

Here you see one of the Sushi Girls surrounded by excited customers. The price was cheap, the sushi was ice-cold and plentiful, and the wasabi was fresh and strong.

Sushi Girls

Oh sure, we had some competition, but in short order - that is to say, after we'd bumped into them selling their wares several times around the playa - we had told the Sushi Girls that we'd buy whatever stock they could produce. Our entire crew was thrilled to be eating moist and tasty sushi instead of our desert rations...

Sushi Girls

Here are the Sushi Girls, posed as they deliver another tray of happiness. Mmmm, where are they now, I wonder...?
