Finally , sorting out a lunch date with an old good friend of mine, we love good food and drinks and probably food helped us to bring up a lot of topics for chit chat, she doesn’t do blogging but she is also a true foodie, and I really love to hang out with her ☺ I have been bugging her to take me to the sushi place and we manage to meet up today in Iwanami Japanese, pretty much right outside CWB Sogo MTR Exit. We had our sushi set (12 pcs omakase) plus Albino. To begin with our meal, the steame
Buri came right next to the Sayori piece! I have to say, this buri made my day, soft with an optimal amount of oil, pretty much melt in my mouth! Meguro soaked in soy sauce Kinme Dai! One of my friends fav!!! Both of us were a huge fan of Albino, chef Ricky said that they are in superb quality today, so we had to do one bowl each. Served in a light soy sauce rather than the citrus, is still really good but the citrus could help wash away the greasiness, still, it is in superb quality! Half way through we had miso Grill toro with tempura spring onion , a very interesting combo, good to explore this new stuff! No sake today,but chef ricky offered us an additional snack Ika with uni, a very old school combo, but it was good! The aka gai was really fresh too! Remind me of the old good times in the market! Kohada marinated in vinegar Aka-abi with sakura ebi Mini uni rice Mince toro hand roll with tempura onion to end our meal To choose between coffee or ice cream, we went for coffee icecream, they had coffee jelly in there and impressed me completely! Often lots of people said good sashimi can make good sushi? It is very important to know how to play around to match up the correct ingredient and craft a piece of sushi, coming back will be a must, jst gotta work out the best time to come back with my friend, together with some sake.
