Met up with a friend who lived in the Tseung Kwan O area for dinner. As it's been a while since we had Japanese together, I decided to try out Sushi Senju. Located in Popcorn, it was the only Japanese restaurant that I knew of in this area.The restaurant is not small but for some reason, the seating still felt a bit cramped. Menu is in English, Japansese and Chinese, They have a variety of items from sushi to yakitori to even donburi and udon. Salmon Roll with Cucumber and Cheese ($78). The sal
The restaurant is not small but for some reason, the seating still felt a bit cramped. Menu is in English, Japansese and Chinese, They have a variety of items from sushi to yakitori to even donburi and udon.
Salmon Roll with Cucumber and Cheese ($78). The salmon had a slight fishy taste but then I didn't get sick afterwards so? There was a small slice of cream cheese and I did like the crunch of cucumber.
Deep Fried Hiroshima Oyster with Black Truffle Sauce ($68). I didn't dip into the mayo which was flavored with truffle oil (not even a paste) as I didn't want the taste of oyster destroyed. But I guess it didn't really matter anyways as the oysters were so oily, they were dripping away. It came with a side of salad which was a bit unexpected.
Soft Shell Crab Roll with Avocado ($88). The soft shell crab wasn't even crunchy. I was a bit disappointed in that. It was also slathered with mayo so you really couldn't taste anything but mayo.
Chicken Liver ($38). This was horribly dry. To make matters worse, it was drenched in a super sweet teriyaki sauce.
Beef Udon ($98). The soup tasted more like it belonged in a bowl of pho. The udon was over cooked. The beef was tender at least but lacked beef taste.
Tempura Shrimp Rolls ($78). At least the shrimp here was crunchy! This was ok and sadly probably the only decent thing we had.
I rarely have high expectations for sushi restaurants that are located in a mall, let alone in an area that doesn't have a thriving Japanese expat population. But the food was mediocre at best with prices that I felt didn't meet that expectation. Service was like all the other Lubuds group restaurants. Always missing the mark. Like one point where our table was full and the waiter still tried to cram the dish in. So, we ate the last remaining piece quickly. But instead of that being a clue that he should remove the empty plates before placing the new down, he continued to cram it in. Seriously, even a cha chan teng knows to remove plates before plunking it down. Why is it that every time I dine at at this group of restaurants, I always get the same type of service? For the same overpriced meals?
