Hello everyone, Last week, I went to the restaurant of Gaki Japanese to taste some of its sushi foods. I had to say that I am quite impressed by the quality of foods I had gotten with the price tag.When I first gone into the restaurant, I ordered 2 meals: one with sushi and the other is sashimi rice.Right away, as soon as the order is taken, the egg arrived.The steamed egg tastes quite smoothly, with the occasional mashed crab and mushrooms mixed into it for enhanced taste of the freshness.

When I first gone into the restaurant, I ordered 2 meals: one with sushi and the other is sashimi rice.
Right away, as soon as the order is taken, the egg arrived.
The steamed egg tastes quite smoothly, with the occasional mashed crab and mushrooms mixed into it for enhanced taste of the freshness. However, I did find a lotus seed in the bottom of the egg, which I am not sure if it's meant to be.
None the less, the egg tastes quite well.
Then, the cold noodle arrive:
I remember tasting this type of dish in the school cafeteria, but never think too much of it as it just seems like any raw noodles to me. However, in this type of high quality restaurant, even raw noodles can be made well. I first tasted the noodles, it's refreshing taste get drawn into and around my mouth. As I crunch into the noodles, the strands break with the slightest of touch, something I really enjoy and is really satisfied about. I will continue to enjoy this dish for its satisfying taste.
However, after tasting the cold noodles, I felt cold and asked if I could change to a seat not directly underneath the aircon. Eyeing an empty seat in the corner, I asked for that seat. But, the service people said no, saying that it is hard to change the seat order. So, I asked for them to switch off the aircon directly above me, to which they also rejected the idea of. This is a bit of a frustration.
Then, the main dish arrived
The sushi display is quite well, wihh only the shrimp out of place in this shot. The seafood on the sushi was very fresh, conveying some of its ocean taste in the firm meat. The smoked salmon sushi was quite interesting, with the meat breaking apart in the mouth and carrying the taste of the salmon and the egg inside of it.
One thing I would Reconmend is to not use wasabi for the sushi as it can block the taste of the seafood
Next, the rice arrived
This is undoubtedly my favourite dish, the display is done perfectly, with each element sorted into a nice array. The salmon and the octopus was very firm, enforcing the taste of the seven seas in them. The crab roesatisfyingly clicks in the teeth of mouth, giving a bubble pop sound. It was so long ago that I had tasted roe this good, which says a lot about my eating habits. The egg was firm, and steady, bringing with it a very large egg taste. The shrimp gives a sense of crunching satisfaction as the protein fibers break in the mouth. My favourite part, the sea Urchin, surfs the saliva of my mouth, leaving a taste of the ocean circulating before it is enhanced by the other seafood.
Again, do not eat the food with the wasabi, it will ruin the taste.
One thing I would say though is the wasabi in the store, it is Fake. Which is basically what you see in most stores now, such a bit of a disappointment, but I won't complain for the good price tag.
Overall, this place offers, much in the way of taste, being more than worth the price tag you pay for it. However, there are some improvements need to be made about its service, and wasabi.
