Sushi Express - Giant Scallop!

Hweecat meow.


Today I'm going to write a short post about Sushi Express in Singapore. Cat and I are fans of Sushi Express; we visit any nearby Sushi Express restaurant whenever we feel like having some affordable sushi and seafood! :P

Sushi Express, also known as 争鲜 (zheng1 xian1, meaning "vying for freshness"), is a popular brand name in revolving sushi restaurants and aims to provide fresh and quality dining at affordable prices. It seems that the Taiwan brand name philosophy holds true in its Singapore branches, as the restaurants usually see long queues during dinner times.

The key attracting factor is that each plate is charged at a standardised price of S$1.50 each. This really helps speed up the decision process on which item is value for money; no more mental acrobatics over coloured plates! :D What is even more awesome about Sushi Express is that it's now the Giant Scallop season - and you can grab a plate of whole Giant Scallop for an unbelievably cheap price of S$1.50! *throws confetti*

Giant Scallop...yum!
The big and juicy Giant Scallop is a really satisfying treat. Drenched with teriyaki sauce at the side, the Giant Scallop tastes really sweet and fresh. Yummy! :P

There are two types of Giant Scallops which we spotted: the orange roe scallop and the white roe scallop. I prefer the orange roe scallop as the orange roe is sweeter than the white roe, but sometimes only the white roe scallop would be available.

As the availability of Giant Scallops depends on their supplier, there are limited quantities of Giant Scallops per day. The next time you visit Sushi Express, do look out for these juicy affordable scallops! :D

P.S. Cat and I tried having 4 Giant Scallops each before; we ended up having insomnia / feeling unwell. As scallops may contain toxins, do consume these delicious Giant Scallops in moderation (even though S$1.50 per giant scallop is indeed value for money)! ;)
