豐州水產 (English name: Toyosu Suisan) was the much hyped restaurant a few months ago. A Japanese restaurant serving sashimi donburi, it claimed to fly in their seafood fresh daily from Tsukiji Fish Market in Toyko. There was always such a long line. People waited at least an hour for a table.Well, people move on. Now there are no more queues. Or at least when I was there. I arrived at lunch where I quickly got table.

Well, people move on. Now there are no more queues. Or at least when I was there. I arrived at lunch where I quickly got table. Seating is very spacious and mostly tables but they do have a bar area.
Menu is in Chinese and English. They had a donburi sets that all come with a miso soup and salad. One of the options was to choose three mini dons that will come with a bowl of udon. And if you don't want raw food, they have vooked rice bowls as well. Why someone would come here to eat non sushi type items as that is their selling point is beyond me, but it happens. But I wasn't too interested in that. I wanted the premium don! Because hey ... go big or go home, right?
Finely Chopped Flying Maguro and O Toro Bowl Set ($188). When it arrived, I was a bit taken aback that my big bowl of sushi rice was so small. But the miso soup bowl was so big!
For such a big bowl of miso soup, it was average at best. Nothing really stood out for me here.
The salad was ok though the lettuce wasn't very fresh as I saw some browning on the edges. I did like the dressing as it was a yuzu type dressing.
But those were just the side acts. How was the star? Size was pretty small. But the quality of the seafood was excellent. It also included half an egg with a superior runny yolk. Mixing it all up, this was a pretty delicious. But size portion for this price, I could get just as good elsewhere and for a bigger portion.
Overall, the sides were average. But the sushi was very fresh. Portion size was a lot smaller than I had expected. Would I be back? Unsure. But for this price range, it really isn't that bad. Just the portions were pretty small. Only worth it if there is no queue. If there is a queue, go elsewhere.
