i love japanese food and chinese food. my 2 favorite things are sushi and dumplings. i know fried dumplings are bad, but are steamed dumplings alright. and also is there any sushi that is good for you and some sushi that i should stay away from. also any other healthy asian food suggestions would be appreciated, thanks

personally, i would just have a cheat meal with all the foods i like, and just use will power to get me through the gaps :p

Yeah full on sushi is best left as a cheat meal due to its high amount of white rice. However, sashimi would fit great into a well balanced diet since it is just fish. If I end up going out to eat on a non-cheat meal day to a nice restaurant I tend to always ordered fish... seared ahi if they have it. I am a sucker for japanese food... it is a good thing good sushi is expensive here cause that way the once a month I can afford to go all out is easily placed on a cheat day for me.

thanks guys, but what about the steamed dumplings (pork dumplings)
