## What is Sooshi?

Sooshi is all about one of the most delicious foods. Whether you are new to the whole topic or you are already a fan of sushi: You will find tons of information about what sushi is, how to prepare sushi and where to find the best sushi places.

Five different categories are offering you a wide variety of information and many topics to discover. Everything was designed and painted from scratch, to achieve highly aesthetic images and views to make the preparation of sushi the biggest possible pleasure for you!

***

SUSHI:

Sooshi provides the most common sushis and an instruction for each traditional type for preparing delicious sushi by yourself. You can interactively browse through the how-tos.
Our app deals with the following traditional sushi types:
• Maki
• Nigiri
• Gunkanmaki

UTENSILS:

For making sushi you will need several utensils. So we added the most important ones to a small list for you, where you can find information about how to deal with each utensil.

FISH:

The most important thing for great sushi is, of course, the fish. Without good fish you won’t have good sushi. That’s the reason why we made a whole section in our app about fish.

INGREDIENTS:

Cooking sushi rice is not easy. But we will help you! Our small cooking tool will assist you in every step for a great result. And of course there are many more ingredients, but don't panic: We'll walk you through.

RESTAURANT FINDER:

With the restaurant finder in sooshi you are able to find the nearest sushi-restaurant.
The app takes your current GPS coordinates and uses the Foursquare API to find the best and nearest spot for you to eat some delicious sushi.

### 5/5 — LOVED THIS BUT NEEDS MAINTENANCE

*2025-05-26*

I used to love this app then tried it again but buttons hardly press so hardly working anymore😭

### 1/5 — Bad

*2023-09-10, version 1.3.1*

It wouldn’t work it was glitchy lagging BLAH BLAH BLAH just in all BAD APP!

### 5/5 — Awesome app

*2021-02-23, version 1.3.1*

I just downloaded this app love it I have had it for five minutes and already learned things

### 3/5 — Update Needed but Unlikely

*2021-02-01, version 1.3.1*

The app is gorgeous and *in general* functions very well. But the connection to the Foursquare API is dead and given it’s been 5-years since the last update, this is unlikely to be corrected. Worth getting to learn about sushi, but only partially useful to locate local sushi establishments.

### 4/5 — Current Location

*2017-11-30, version 1.3.1*

Love the app, it’s gorgeous, but the Current Location in Restaurants doesn’t work at all. It doesn’t even ask me for permission to use my location, and it doesn’t even show up in system settings.

### 5/5 — WOW is right!

*2017-10-29, version 1.3.1*

What a treat for the eyes (even on iPhone 4s). Spectacular example of wonderful programming, gorgeous graphics, silky smooth interface, and useful information all beautifully presented. Slick indeed! 

(Even has a built-in Timer to cook your rice! ...Who knows what other surprises still to discover in the app.)

Huge kudos to the Developer showing what can be done with a very tiny app that even still runs on iOS 6!

(One glitch with Restaurant locations. The built-in Map feature - and a gorgeous one at that, super easy to read, even on the 4s - quickly shows all local sushi restaurant locations, but gives an "Failed to Fetch Data Error from FourSquare API" when click on a specific local restaurant in the list. Even with that glitch the App still shows the zoomed map location for that selected restaurant using that wonderful built-in map. Even shows distance in Meters away so very accurate.)

### 4/5 — Sooshi

*2017-10-27*

Sooshi is a great application for those unfamiliar with the meal and what it requires in order to get the best results. The app is designed to educate users on the different types of sooshi, the preparation methods to use as well as the closest restaurants that serve the dish. The app also has a nice minimalist design with dark and bright color backgrounds which fit in with one's idea of the places that serve the dish.

### 3/5 — Attractive

*2017-10-27*

Unfortunately seems to not really offer an easy to use method of bringing up locations. Perhaps it’s only useful for those in Japan?

### 3/5 — Location error?

*2017-10-26*

I don't know why Google Places is the only location service this app uses, but it seems it is. The restaurant guide opens in Tokyo, and cannot be budged off. I don't know what the issue is, but it makes the guide useless, unless I want something like Google Places. I don't. I don't think I should have to. I don't even know what it is. The content looks beautiful, but I went right for the guide to see what might be there, and well, no go. Not a very communicative app with the rest of the known universe...

### 3/5 — Really nice app except the map doesn’t work

*2017-10-26*

Really nice app except the map/restaurant feature doesn’t work, too bad.
