More people are becoming familiar with the unique culinary culture of Japan as the cuisine spreads throughout the country. People are lining up to get their hands on tempura, ramen, sushi rolls and other Japanese dishes. I'm taking a break and ordering takeout in the interim, but home cooks like myself are busily preparing their way through replicating some of their favorite Japanese dishes at home.
I ordered the following:
Shrimp and Vegetable Tempura
Agedashi Tofu
Philladelphia Roll
Salmon Skin Roll
California Roll
"If I were trapped in one city and had to eat one nation's cuisine for the rest of my life, I would not mind eating Japanese. I adore Japanese food. I love it." - Anthony Bourdain
Went back to the tablet to order four more plate of sushi starting with this Shrimp with Basil Cheese. It is more or less the same great taste like the salmon version with the sweet spicy basil perfuming the cheese.
The last three are all shellfishes like this Ark Shell (Akagai) with a reddish-orange body. A deliciously sweet subtle clam flavour possesses a unique soft yet wonderful unique crunch. Love this pair of Scallop Sushi, so sweet and yummy delicious. A twist to the usual is this Surf Clam with Lemon Basil giving this a bright and sweet profile.
For a conveyor belt sushi chain, Sushiro managed to differentiate itself from the competitors offering something unique. I will definitely be back to dine again.
