The Sushi Bar Normal Chirashi Don

Hweecat meow.

I've been pigging out with Cat so much (and getting caught up with work) that I have accumulated a backlog of posts. Time to start completing my posts! :P

Since our first visit to The Sushi Bar at Far East Plaza, I have wanted to make a return visit to try more items in the menu. As we were hungry and craving for some really good salmon aburi sushi, we decided to visit The Sushi Bar again last Friday. To ensure that we will not leave hungry this time, we ordered a Normal Chirashi Don (S$24.90) in addition to a plate of the must-order Salmon Aburi Roll (S$14.90).

Normal Chirashi Don

The Normal Chirashi Don is of such premium quality that we felt it was well worth the price! It comes with 3 thick slices of salmon, aburi salmon, tuna, swordfish, yellowtail and scallop, and topped with ikura (salmon roe). What we really like about the Normal Chirashi Don is that premium cuts of sashimi were chosen for the chirashi don. We were especially impressed with the tuna in this chirashi don, which tasted fresh and succulent, unlike the tuna served in most restaurants which usually tastes mushy (and hence not so pleasant to eat). The sashimi-rice ratio seems to be about 2:1, such that we have just enough rice to eat with the sashimi without overpowering its taste. If the Normal Chirashi Don is already so impressive in terms of quality (and definitely one of the best chirashi don in Singapore), I can't imagine how much more "premium" could the Premium Chirashi Don be!

Salmon Aburi Roll and Normal Chirashi Don

We like how the Salmon Aburi Roll tastes just as 'shiok' as the one we had on our first visit. So far the quality has been consistently great. (:

From our two visits to The Sushi Bar so far, we are impressed with how the chef could serve Japanese food of premium quality consistently at fairly reasonable prices. The portions are generous, yet leave us feeling hungry for more. We feel that it's better than Itacho Sushi in terms of food quality and freshness, yet just a little more pricey. Would we visit The Sushi Bar again? Cat doesn't feel a pinch of regret after paying the bill, so the answer is: yes. :D
