Another week in the office means another opportunity for me to try out new restaurants in the vicinity. This time, I had read an article online about a new Japanese restaurant on the Wharf street end of Queen Street that specialised in good quality food for reasonable prices, I definitely had to go check it out. It was in the old lodgings of Roll'd and apparently owned by the people who run Sushi Kim on Creek Street, a local favourite of officeworkers.
There were quite a few main options as presented on their menu as well as individual sushi rolls. On other sources, I had read about their fusion rolls but I couldn't find them that day. Prices were indeed reasonable with all mains under the $11.80 mark. Service was fast and sauces were available on a self serve basis.
The first time I went, I had their Sake Don and an extra Karaage Roll. The salmon was thick cut and the portion was generous. The avocado was ripe and it was also ample and went well with the dish. The topping to rice ratio was good and added with a bit of kewpie and soy sauce, it would definitely make on of my favourite work lunches in a while. The sushi roll also had a very generous amount of crispy chicken that was well marinated. The meal was great.
That meal as so enjoyable that the week after, I went back for a second time.
This was the Tempura Prawn Udon Soup. The prawns were plump and freshly fried, conveniently served separate from the noodles to ensure crispiness. The udon was also tender and the soup was wholesome.
I had an extra salmon and avocado roll. The portion of filling was super generous. Again the salmon was fresh and delicious and the avocado was ripe. I couldn't recommend this more and will be back again in the near future for another lunch.
