I’m a total sushi rookie but I’ve taken the plunge and headed over to Sushi Zushi!

Sushi Zushi is an open-concept sushi counter that lets you watch your food being prepared right in front of you (perfect for admin who is super nosy). It’s basically like a delicious dinner and a sushi show rolled into one!

As a newbie, I followed the chef’s recommendations to kick things off.

The Otoro Fatty Tuna Sashimi (S$12) was my favourite, practically melting in my mouth. The Chutoro Medium Fatty Tuna Sashimi (S$9) was a solid runner-up, with just the right balance of richness. While Sake Salmon Sashimi (S$2) was a classic.

Each came with a touch of wasabi (admin isn’t exactly the biggest fan) which worked beautifully with the profile of the sushi.

Next, the Aburi Salmon (S$4) was a showstopper. Lightly seared with a sweet sauce, it had this smoky, caramelised richness that I couldn’t get enough of.

I tried the Crab Mayo (S$6) which had snow crab mixed with creamy mayo. It wasn’t life-changing but still worth a shot if you love mayo-based sushi.

With 19 handroll options, I was spoilt for choices. 

The Ebi Handroll (S$4) was a surprising favourite. The deep-fried ebi paired with mayo, fish roe, and spring onion was an explosion of flavour in every bite. Easily one of my highlights of the night.

Wagyu Beef Handroll (S$9) was a wildcard. It came with a quail egg for dipping, and I had fun mixing the egg. It wasn’t my favourite but was a unique experience.

And, of course, I had to get Chawanmushi (S$3.50). It was light and hiding a chewy mochi surprise in the airy bed of goodness.

I finished the meal with Goma Ice Cream Black Sesame Ice Cream (S$3.80), a thick, rich, and unapologetically sesame-y dessert. If you’re into bold flavours, this dessert will be your newest obsession.

The rice deserves its own spotlight. Hand-beaten twice daily with red vinegar and made using Hokkaido Sansanmaru rice, it’s the perfect foundation for every bite.

To celebrate their opening, Sushi Zushi is running a S$1.50 promotion on their sashimi sushi! 

Plus, if you spend S$50 or more to get a spin on their Gachapon machine to win prizes like DJI Mini Drone, iPhone, and more. This is available until stock runs out!
