kai sushi & robatayaki, plaza singapura.

after being in melbourne on holiday for two weeks, i really needed some japanese food- definitely no more cafés, for a while at least. remembered glancing through their menu and noticing that they had pretty well priced set lunches, so i suggested going there for lunch.

it turned out to be a really good choice. for $15.80 (before taxes and service charge) i got a pretty good portion of sashimi, especially compared to the rice. i love it when i have chirashi and the proportion of rice to sashimi is just right. there were much more fish cubes than rice, and i ended up with just fish (my favourite kind of problem). also loved the cut of the fish- one of my pet peeves is when they dice up the fish in a bara chirashi so much that i can barely taste anything, which pretty much defeats the purpose of having it.



the set also came with miso soup, an appetizer and chawanmushi. interestingly enough the chawanmushi had yuzu- i've never had that particular combination.

i'm definitely coming back here. this might be one of my favourite places to have bara chirashi now, given how reasonably priced it is and how generous they are. here's to hoping they maintain standards till my next visit.
