Kan Sushi
Looking for an affordable omakase that allows you to try different varieties of fish? If you love trying different varieties of fish, the 15pc ๐๐ฆ๐๐ค๐๐ฌ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ก๐ข ๐๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ก [$118] is perfect for you! That being said, the sushi rice is on the less vinegary side. You can choose 9,12 or 15 pieces of sushi and this set comes with miso soup, salad and a soup! For just $60, you can enjoy a 9pc omakase sushi lunch! Truly unbeatable value at Kan Sushi!
If you prefer a summarised version of my experience, scroll ahead down. Otherwise, here's a detailed breakdown of the sushis got:
| First Half of Sushi | Description |
|---|---|
| ๐๐๐ฒ๐จ๐ซ๐ข (Japanese halfbeak) | Sweet, with a good tender yet firm bite! |
| ๐๐ป๐๐ก๐ข๐ฆ๐ ๐๐ฃ๐ข | Citrus glaze paired excellently with the fatty flavours of the fish |
| โญ๐๐๐๐ก๐ข๐ฎ๐จ (beltfish) | Salty, tangy with fatty flavours, albeit almost sinewy. Excellent |
| ๐๐ฃ๐ข | Tender and subtly sweet |
| โญ๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐๐๐ข๐ง ๐๐ฎ๐ง๐ ๐๐๐๐ | Insanely buttery with a savoury glaze. Absolutely heavenly. |
| ๐๐ป๐๐จ๐ญ๐๐ญ๐ | Incredibly tender and sweet with the added briney complexity of the sea urchin sauce |
| ๐๐ข๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ (flounder) | Tender and wonderfully umami, almost woody flavour |
| ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ฐ๐ | The garnish was sweet, savory and refreshing while the engawa was half creamy and half crunchy |
| Second Half of Sushi | Description |
|---|---|
| ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ข (Amberjack) | The refreshing citrus flavour paired nicely with the fatty flavours of the fish! |
| โญ๐๐๐๐๐ข (Red Seabream) | Wonderfully refreshing and savoury while the fish was sweet! |
| โญ๐๐ญ๐จ๐ซ๐จ | Tender, buttery and melty goodness |
| โญ๐๐๐๐ฎ๐ง ๐๐ง๐ข | This uni was sweet, heavenly creaminess, with briney undertones! |
| ๐๐ค๐ฎ๐ซ๐ ๐ฐ/ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐ญ๐ฅ๐๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ก | Umami goodness, with different crunchy textures! |
| ๐๐ก๐ข๐ซ๐จ ๐๐๐ข | Refreshing lime flavour paired with the subtle umami flavours of the prawn! |
| ๐๐ค๐๐ ๐๐ข | Sweet and crunchy, with a savoury glaze! |
| ๐๐ข๐๐ค๐ฅ๐๐ฌ | Now, I know pickles aren't sushi ofc. Regardless, these were sweet,salty, tangy and crunchy! I enjoyed the sake-soaked pickle that had a complex bitter intensity that complemented the saltiness! |
The strength in this omakase meal were the fishes. Not only was it exciting to try so many different varieties of fishes, the sushi themselves allowed the natural flavours of the fishes to shine. Coupled with the great value for money of Kan Sushi's Lunch omakase options , this is definitely an omakase spot I will be returning to!
