Sushi 🍣

This is half a scallop, torched, and glazed with honeyed chilli. It’s delicious to be sure, but the nitpicker in me feels that the searing could be better controlled. (I just don’t think singed rice was part of the plan.) But at 80¢ per piece, there’s nothing much else I could really carp about.

💭 Must try!

The rice was insipid; the salmon dry, over-cooked and plainly wanting in quantity. The small wad of salmon that peeks titillatingly from between the rice is, unfortunately, all there is to it. Not quite an “appetiser” on the whole – this dish whetted no appetites and was a waste of stomach space.

💭 Focus on the ramen

Sushi Goshin strikes a nice balance between the quality-price dichotomy. For just 80¢ per sushi, we got salmon sashimi shake and torched salmon aburi and hotate slices, all of which tasted incredibly fresh. The aburi salmon was soft and fragrant: smeared with dark, sweet sauce and served with a sprinkle of sesame. Fifth time here but I can still see myself coming back for sushi fixes.

💭 Solid personal sushi staple.
