Kokoro sushi left me a deep impression since my last visit. My wife and i had our dinner over there few months back and we really enjoyed ourselves. Even though the price was slightly on the high side, but the quality of it's food more than compensate for it. On this particular afternoon, i was running some errands around Mongkok area and hoped to have some quiet moment by myself and i suddenly think of this restaurant. It was conveniently located near Mongkok MTR, just a minute walk.Kokoro sush
Kokoro sushi is shaking up the Japanese dining scene in Hong Kong with their creative approach to things and their stylish decor. I reached slightly after they opened, thus i was able to choose a corner seat by myself so that i can relax myself.
Based on their quality of food, their set lunch was reasonably priced. It ranges from $88 to $268, offering different types of Japanese cuisine available. All set comes with miso soup, chawanmushi, side dish and salad bowl.
For a start, the waiter brought me a cup of hot tea and wet tissue. I guess it is Japanese tradition to be hygienic thus it was good for me to wrap my hands clean before having my meal.
Salad bowl - It was really good. There were vegetables, corns, beans and cherry etc in it. All were incredibly fresh, even the vegetables were juicy as well. Beef brisket was offered as side dish. It was served cold and it was soft.
Chawanmushi - There were alot of ingredients in it, such as gingko nut, glass noodles, crab meat, mushroom and egg pudding. Egg was soft and hot, and i could taste the freshness in it. Miso soup was rather thick, as seen from the photo. It was just passable at best.
Assorted seafood sashimi rice bowl set - As i feel like eating sashimi today and this dish offer different type of sashimi, thus this appeals to me more. When served, it look like the chef's masterpiece. He decorated the dish in a way that all sashimi was piled on top of the rice, with little rice seen. The whole plate look colourful and vibrant. Crab claws - It was literally a claw, with little meat in it. Though the meat was soft.
Botan shrimp - It was big and round in size. It was one of the better i tasted. It was really sweet and juicy, with its juice splashing out from my mouth.
Tamago - It is also a type of Japanese omelette, which is made by rolling together several layers of cooked egg. Instead of the usual grilling method, i guess it was cooked via steaming. Normally, tamago will not break off easily as it might be over cooked. This is soft and sweet.
Salmon roe - It was good to serve with rice. Texture of it was smooth and soy sauce was needed to mix with the rice to bring out the flavour in it.
Salmon - It has a high fat content, thus it left a oily feel in my mouth and it was delicious as well.
Crab roe - Only a very small portion was served and i just mixed them together with salmon roe to go with the rice.
Scallop - Ever since i have tasted scallop at a particular sushi shop in Yuen Long, my standard of scallop has rose. Even though it was not of that level, it was still one of the better ones around. It still retains its elasticity and was chewy.
Sea urchin - As sea urchin was considered a delicacy in Japan, only a spoonful of it was provided. It was soft and literally melt in my mouth. It was creamy and rich.
Toro - It was again one of the better ones i have tasted. It was from the fatty parts of the fish, thus when consumed it has a rich taste and buttery texture.
