By the plate- @ Sakae Sushi


Sunny

Aftermath of our meal from Sakae Sushi, we managed to get one plate of every colour. Or rather, it is "working backwards". Not like japanese or english restaurants where diners eat whatever that is 'planned' for them on the menu, but by intuition, whatever comes and you take that on its colour plate until every colour has a copy.


Take what; comes may, the challenge. Retrieving it from the selection as long as it is a new colour of a plate. What which came to us was red, avocado unagi; yellow, kakiage (vegetable tempura); green, chuka kurage; turquiose, egg mayo; blue, tamago; indigo, salmon nigiri; pink,- the black ebikko inari(!); purple, california maki; and black, chawanmushi.


Colour Plate (SGD 2.99)

So halfway through (counting (the colours)) there is also black. Black ebikko (probably through the staining of squid ink) laid on a bed of rice in beancurd pouch. The ebikko was almost negligible; but extremely hardy and crunchy, so it should be prawn and not salmon or flying fish roe.


Strawberry Mousse Cake and Green Tea Chocolate Cake (SGD 5.99 ea)

Through the colour-(picking) there is also new dessert on the menu. Mousse cake, a non-spongey waxy texture more like set yoghurt. The green tea had an ashy flavour to it, and slushy ice-cream inside. Both cakes have a sponge cake base at the bottom of the dome, flourry and firm.

P.S. The rainbow of colours to designate the sushi in the belt. Red, premium plate, availability and exotic ingredients; green, wet gunkan sushi; turquoise, dry gunkan sushi; blue, nigiri sushi; pink, premium creative plate; black, special a la carte like chawanmushi and cha soba. There is also the yellow plate. It is the more exclusive premium plate.
