Image: At the rate that they’re springing up all over Sydney, I think I’m eventually going to hate slate veneer tiles, but that’s something to look forward to. For now here’s another venue made to feel more substantial and vaguely authentic through their use; the silver metal lights are funky too.
At the rate that they’re springing up all over Sydney, I think I’m eventually going to hate slate veneer tiles, but that’s something to look forward to. For now here’s another venue made to feel more substantial and vaguely authentic through their use; the silver metal lights are funky too. Dine at the sushi train, al carte or choose a set menu for perhaps the best value ‘degustation’ in Sydney. Dinner Course B ($25.50/head) includes ten courses. Not every course is a winner; the Seaweed Salad ($6.50) is vividly green and tasty; the Hiya Yakko ($5.00) or soft tofu with soy sauce is fairly bland. A Sushi and Sashimi Combination ($20) is fresh and well presented, if Westernised with crumbed chicken, avocado and mayonnaise nigiri sushi. Ginger fans will appreciate the wasabi and pickled ginger being in containers table side. Teppanyaki Beef Tenderloin ($18.50) is tender and presented in a cast iron sizzling platter on a wooden base. It’s unlicensed and service flags from a clear language barrier, however dishes come from the kitchen with lightening speed. It’s not the best Japanese in Sydney, but the price is right, and it’s handy if you like shopping at Pyrmont’s SupaIGA.
