  Jukusei Sushi

  Jukusei or aged sushi - this is where you will find one of the best exponents of ageing in Singapore. But that's only half the story. The other half is how they prepare the rice of shari. The rice is done old school, with enough tangy acidity and firmness and at the correct temperature.

  Expected a lot due to the aged sushi, but fish mostly taste about the same. Fish lack variety and price doesn’t justify

  While there are some fish that taste good, there isn’t a variety of fishes served. With the 400 per person set, there isn’t any wagyu or beef, mostly white fish. Also, the difference of sushi served compared to 450 per person set is too vast to warrant the 50 dollar difference. We were told that the 450 dollar per person set has abalone, that’s it. What we saw were completely different because we saw that people who go for the 450 per person has lobster, 3 Uni, abalone and other dishes that we didn’t get. What was bizarre was the second uni we received which taste unfresh and to be honest, taste really awful! Told the Chinese chef but he said everything is fresh. I checked with my hubby and he agreed with me as we have one too many Omakase experience in Singapore and in Japan. Our set ends with fruits that don’t look very generous. Half a white strawberry, small orange, melon and mango. Mango is not even a Japanese fruit, can they select muscat grape or give one whole strawberry instead? To our surprise, we were also told that we don’t have ice cream in our set, but the chef gave them to us, which we appreciate. I would say that the quality, taste and rice do not make me want to return because there isn’t creativity in the sushi, taste wise it is pretty standard and all of them are smoky except for cuttlefish, the fish are cut so small and thinly and the rice keep falling apart. Everything is so-so except for the Baku uni which was really awful, and nothing really stands out positively.

  Stinky parrot fish

  I was served an aged parrot fish nigiri that was smelly and stinky. My wife agreed with me of the unpleasant smell.
  
  A few gd pieces but generally everything is aged so a hardy stomach for those adventurous
