About 2 weeks ago I was en route to Italy with my wife and we stopped
over Amsterdam's Schipole airport for an hour before getting on our
connecting flight to Milan. Before going through another terminal we
passed by the duty free shops and deli's. Right in the middle of
nowhere along the terminal was a sushi bar, man'd by two Japanese
sushi chefs. Unfortunately I did not have time to get a closer look
but was quite amazed and yet amused to see this, as it seemed out of
place.

Has anyone eaten there and can comment?

Haven't eaten there, but having been in Amsterdam back in 1990, I can
tell you it has a rich ethnic commuting. Of the foods I sampled, all
were pretty good. Even my cousin cooked well.

I think was the first to get me to try sushi.. well, the herring at
least. From what I've seen at Airports for sushi stalls, they aren't
all that great. But my guess is there are probably a few gems here
and there.

Actually pretty good. I however advise going down the corridor away from
the casino and there is a little food shop on your right about 100m down
that has wonderful Iranian Caviar for carrying onto the airplane. Bit of
crackers and caviar, the only way to fly. The flight attendants on KLM will
chill multiple bottles of vodka for you but the cranky old biddies on
Northworst just bring you a glass of ice and ONE mini bottle.
