The Silver plate- *blue*@ Sakae Sushi

Wednesday, January 16   keyboard  


Cloudy

 Non-stochiastically, there would be an urge for starchy, sticky carbohydrates. Marinated. Flavoured strips and those unbridled moreish cuts that goes with them. Even if it was ambient temperature, tepid. 


The salads, mayonnaise, avocado. They seem to represent how sushi is being catered to here, the Out into Asia theory.


 Ebi kani maki, lobster salad combo, yasai tempura, edamame, tamago sushi. Rainbow has new addresses.


Blue Paradise Maki (SGD4.29)

January the highlight's seafood. Hence there was kani, seafood treasures, hotate jewels, and a paradise that is blue. Utopia like the Caribbean there would be volcanic craters aqua or coastal cliffs, hence a suitably association with the maki, volcano or shrimp or spider butterfly, and its beverage coasters, sea-sprayed blue.


A stain the maki'd left. Smokin' hot blue, and my brain's frozen. {From the aurora}. A flash fire across the makizushi, it is sweet, like a Blue Curacao. (Calpis' from Japan anyway, fizz's the culprit. Ramune too (lemon).) That could be how blue'd been, to tune drinks. Fish fritter, and not breaded ebi like what is garnished on the red plate, it is batted by the lucid taste of the kani, with the mollifying accompaniment of nori and rice.

P.S. So silver'd be a league below the red (plate, premium). Take on a new rainbow. White ($2.20) plate, blue ($3.00) plate, pink ($3.80) plate, green ($4.50) plate, grey ($5.20) plate, red ($6.00) plate, gold ($6.90) plate (Sushi Tei). To-do resolution list. Ditto, have I not been in a slumber?

By the plate- @ Sakae Sushi

Tuesday, November 1   keyboard  


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.

Pink Sushi

Tuesday, April 26   keyboard  


Sunny

One of the sushi you would definitely not choose first, in an open-air counter selling assorted sushi. Because there are just too many slimy orange, bright reds and greens to pick up in your basket, who would waste a chance at this odd looking thing?


Sakura Denbu (SGD 0.70 ea)

If you go and notice it, it is actually called sakura denbu, and is really pink in colour! Denbu is not a new kind of fish or prawn roe, but rather fish flakes or fish powder, coloured by the cherry blossoms for this case. Taking it out from the chilled section, it is a bed of hard, sweet sushi rice, layered with a blanket of sweet marinated powder; crunchy like powdered candy. A marinate rather similiar to the tasty, chilled jellyfish found on gunkan sushi.

P.S. That neon pink cast, the sakura gives the denbu a nice pink colour, originally a pale white or brown, to enliven sushi or rice dishes. The same idea as the bright red colouring found in chinese bbq pork meat, to enhance its appearance, and making it more appetizing to look at.
