Some may find my title a little exaggerated but this was really how I felt the first time I tried Sushi Sase! *I have been to Sushi Sase several times now, for both lunch and dinners.

I have been to Sushi Sase several times now, for both lunch and dinners. I usually book to have Chef Sase to prepare the meal but if he is not available, I find that Chef Jason does a really good job too! My most memorable experience would still be my first visit to Sushi Sase.
Yes, it is extremely expensive but Sushi Sase's decor is exactly what a sushi restaurant should be like. A nice clean space with a very welcoming counter, a few tables on the side and a very clean bathroom with a high-tech japanese toilet - definitely a plus if you are a clean freak!
The service in Sushi Sase is great and staff are very courteous. I like the omakase course with hot dishes for some variety.
The first time I went I had .. .
* Amuse Bouche - Visually appealing snow crab jelly
* Hokkaido Uni with sea salt - a bit of sea salt complimented the sweetness of the uni very well!
* Grilled Kinki ... DELICIOUS!! Their Kinki fish are all caught by hand line fishing unlike other Japanese restaurants.
* Sauteed abalone - Super tasty!
* Saba sashimi - something I normally don't eat but this was definitely the freshest I've had in HK. I actually liked it.
* Snow crab chawamushi - even this was exceptional!
* Mushroom tempura - Batter was perfect not too thick not too soggy.
* Japanese salmon sushi - this was one of my favourites! The salmon was blanched in hot water then marinated in soy sauce for 12 hours .. amazing ♥
* Chu-toro sushi - very fresh.
* Eel sushi - probably the BEST eel sushi I've ever had in HK (Note: The eel sushi they serve at dinner is much better than what they serve at lunch)
Our meal ended with a bowl of miso soup with kinki head.. super delicious.
Sushi Sase also does AMAZING puddings!! We had both the matcha pudding and caramel pudding for dessert. So SOOOOO GOOD!
We really enjoyed our dinner and felt like we were back in Tokyo for a few hours. That, in my opinion, is a restaurant worth going back for!
I must add that I had the Freshest shrimp sashimi EVER at Sushi Sase. I don't usually like raw shrimp but these were huge and extremely fresh.. with their heads chopped off seconds after they were whipped out of a large bowl of water (where they were swimming in).
Kind of mean but oh-SO-fresh *!!
A note for those who cannot get reservations for dinner, you can also order the dinner menu if you go at lunch.
Overall, I would say that though Sushi Sase is definitely more on the expensive side, for authentic sushi it is still worth a try. Remember to book Chef Sase or Chef Jason! Both extremely gentle and friendly chefs.
