Many restaurants offer a selection titled "non-raw sushi" just for those
diners that don't want raw fish.

Included are shrimp (just like shrimp cockatil, you should be able to sell
that to almost anybody). Don't confuse this with ami-ibi (sweet shrimp),
while delicious to a sushi head but seasonal is definitely raw.

Tamago - egg. Kinda like a cold, sweetened omelet

Spider Roll - Fried soft shell crab

"Crab" sticks - I'm not sure its crab, but its like the "seafood" salad
stuff.

Lump Crab Meat - cooked, sweet real crab.

Fried Rolls - usually whitefish

Seared Tuna - not truly raw, just extremely rare.

Avacado, cucumber , kanpyo ( a sweet pickled squash) or other vegetables

Inari - sweet rice in a deep fried tofu blanket.

and the list goes on.
