Eating sushi for the first time requires a certain amount of bravery, trust, and a vow to only use the super strength it gives you for good or morally neutral deeds. Try some sushi with today's Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of sushi and Asian cuisine at Jaiyen. Jaiyen's menu is a massive dance party of super fresh, generously portioned dishes that range from sashimi starters, chef's-special rolls, and sushi and sashimi dinners to soup, tempura, noodles, and fried rice. Fuse your foraging stomach with the pad thai Jaiyen ($7.75) to complement the Jai Yen maki ($9.95), a creative chef's-special roll of scallop, shrimp, crab, and avocado rapped with cucumber beats and topped with house-music special sauce.
