Better sick than starving? Yeah some of the rice was terribly hard but the fish tasted fine, and keep in mind I searched for anything 'fishy' as I ate. I read somewhere the raw stuff has a 2-3 day life in the fridge while the cooked stuff (crab, shrimp etc) have about a week. All my disgusting experiences confirm this.

If it's a piece of nigiri or even a maki with raw fish on it, I like to sear it with a torch. This works especially well with fatty pieces of fish. I let the piece of sushi come back to room temperature first and then I torch it up. It will cover most of the fridge smell/taste while giving the piece of sushi new life.

If you have plain fish leftover you can make soup out of it. I chop some up for my cats to eat. If you have plain fish leftover you can make soup out of it.

Lots of laughter. I don't usually get much 'interesting' stuff, just enough that I know will get eaten and do a lot of california roll type stuff so that if there are any leftovers, it's not a big deal. And I usually take my time and to make sure that if there is any hamachi left, I scarf it down at the end of the evening as sashimi. But that said, I think that sushi grade fish, provided that it hasn't been manhandled too much, should last a day or two if kept chilled (meaning not left out on the table all evening). Just take out a little bit at a time and keep replacing it on the table (if you are making it on an as-eaten basis). I'm not sure if you prefer to make the rolls before your friends arrive, so if that's the case, it's hard to say how much to make, IMHO.

I live 3 hours to the nearest Sushi (Winnipeg) so we dont get Sushi very often. I travel to Denver for work quite a bit and make a point to goto Sushi Den downtown. Its incredible. Anyway... Considering our sudden cravings and lack of availability we were considering having a Sushi party not only to satisfy the "jonesin'" for sushi but also expose some of our friends to wonderful meal. I have found many places online where you can order sushi grade fish and our concern was what to do with the leftovers(assuming there are any) or how long would it keep.
