Taste:Salmon Salad Roll: This was probably the strangest one out of all the appetizer. The salmon roll with some green beg inside. Did not taste very good. And did not know whether to dip it into the soy sauce with wasabi or not. I do prefer it diped into the wasabi. Portion was really small, you could say they were bite size
Seasonal Sashimi- this was also a mini portion. So small I did not realize each of the sashimi came in two portions. It consist of salmon, prawn and another sashimi which i have no idea of. The salmon sashimi was delicious. Too good to be true. It was juicy fresh and it melts in your mouth. Was so delicious, I wanted more. The other two i did not taste unfortunately. But they were fresh and vibrant in colours.
Grilled Sole fish with mixed herbs- This was the only cooked dish. It looked quite wierd when it was served, especially everything around it was raw and red/orange. This was white with green herbs sprinkled on top, and a few drops of the dark sauce on the side. i was bit skeptic of the grilled sole, but it turned out to be good. The fish was done nicely, not overcooked. The herbs was not over spinkled, could taste bit of rosemary. This was the biggest portion they have served so far and it was delicious. tasted abit like grilled chicken.
Bubbles Sushi- This was SHICKINGLY disapppointing. i came here FOR the bubbles sushi and it turned out to be quite badly made. Apart from bubbles sushi we have ordered ordinart sushi nigri and they tasted fresh and perfectly done. these bubble sushi was so badly made. The piece of fish on top was just laid on top and does not stick to the rice at all. i can see it as fish AND rice. no connection at all. The fish was not fresh and they were rectangle. Nothing of it resembles the picture we have seen on their website or menu. It was highly disappointing to be honest. i don't understand how the bubbles sushi was not fresh but they extra that we ordered was really fresh and resembled a sushi. Either it was because it was from the set so they did not care if it taste good or not. But i did not want to finish the dish. The portion was small. and one thing i realize after tasting the bubbles sushi is the ratio of fish and rich is very important to how the sushi taste. with the bubble sushi, the rice was alot more than the fish, the fish was small and thin, it did not taste like a good sushi at all. I would prefer the normal sushi than this ball sushi.
Assorted dessert- This was really small and I wasn't too happy at first But as I dug in, i realize it was quality dessert. I thought they ramdom gave me assorted dessert but it was a mix of their signature dessert. There was a vanilla cream puff which isn;t as good as beard papa, but it was vanilla cream and it tasted so milky. Then there was a green tea mochi which i thought was okay, wasn't too rich in green tea flavour. The last was a black sesame dough ball with bursting black sesame in the centre. unlike chinese black sesame dough ball, the black sesame in the centre was not runny. Instead it was quite thick. i liked it very much.
EXTRAS WE ORDERED:Salmon roe sushi- this was by far the most expensive sushi. it was 50 hk dollars for one piece. It was good, nothing to complain about but is it really worth 50 hk dollars for one, when you can get 2 piece for 45 dollars?
Salmon with cream cheese roll- this was not worth what we paid for. the portion was really small although it came in 3 piece. But the cream cheese was so small that you cannot really taste it when you put into your mouth. usually the cream cheese burst into your mouth and you would think it is too rich. But here, i hardly taste any cheese. i would rather they gave two piece than three piece.
Salmon California hand roll- I liked the hand roll the most. It was 40 hk dollars and much bigger portion than all the other rolls which costed even more. Big fat salmon, with avocado, crab roe was all fresh and tightly folded. the seaweed was crispy. I really liked it and it fills you up.
Amosphere: i loved the atmosphere. It was on third floor. The place was nicely decorated and furnished. definately made a lot of effort into making it grand. It was mainly black and gold for the colour. With alot of booth seat on the side and a couple tables in the middle. Not lots of seatings but enough for 14 tables I think.
Conclusion: The service here was superb. Was greeted immediately and was seated. Tea was refilled every so often and she always say " excuse me..." which I really appreciate. Although i was using my coupon, they were very polite and helpful. Not once they were rude and impatient. Everytime they served food, they said "excuse me" and told me what was coming up next. there was one point when i was looking at a piece of sushi thinking if it was raw beef or tuna, the lady quickly and politely told me it was toro and not beef, and smiled. it was real helpful, and she was really polite. I liked how everytime I said thank you for their service, they would say "don't be so polite" in chinese and say thank you back to me. this is the type of service that i think every costumers should get. I can't ask for more. They were even polite when we paid, and no matter how much tips we have paid. They explained clearly when the bill came, that the set was not charged as it has already been paid, and what was charged was what we ordered as extras. i love their attitude! They deserve a GOLD star.
One thing i have to mention which i did not at the top is their Soy sauce I have once read that the soy sauce that we dip our sushi into plays a big role in the whole experience. usually the sushi place we go to in hong kong, their soy sauce was probably bought and never been seasoned the way they have wanted to. as a result it is very salty, so once you dip your sushi into it, your sushi is very salty. Too salty. But the soya sauce here is sweet, not VERY sweet to point where you can't eat it or think your drinking syrup. what i mean is the saltiness isn't to extreme and you can taste a bit of sweetness to it. which makes a whole lot of difference when you are eating the sushi, it brings out the freshness of the fish.I came for the bubbles sushi but in return it was highly disappointed. The bubbles sushi was badly made, the fish was not fresh and cut into every shape but circle. The portion was small. But the cooked fish was great and also the extra normal nigri sushi I ordered was fantastica nd freshly made. so i do not know what went wrong there. I was expecting a lot more from this middle high end sushi place especially their name is called 'BUBBLES sushi" you would expect them to make perfect Bubble sushi. i hope they would make it til its perfect or maybe change their name?
I loved the service though and the interior. Not too packed and no one talked aloud and I can sit there quietly for hours enjoying my meal. I loved the interior, it was grand and still new. There is a lot of privacy and I was probably paying a lot for their decoration more than their food. I have to mention their washroom. there is only one washroom so you could wait a bit. But it was spacious and very clean which i liked.
Would I come back to bubble sushi?I would probably not. the dishes are expensive and for the middle range quality, I don't think it was worth. it was a good experience and they did have some good dish. But for the price, maybe next time for special occasion. But if I had another chance to buy Group buy coupons, I would like to come back for more bargain. I really loved the service and I think they are a very good example to others in the industry.
