Next, we will taste " Wafu Salad ". It
consists of avocado, lotus root, raisin and vegetables with wafu dressing. The
Wafu Salad shine the Sakae Sushi ‘farm to table’ philosophy, the vegetable it
is so fresh and taste like just pick from the farm.
Really feel like wanted to ask June, it's Sakae have it's own vegetable
farm to provide all these fresh veges? ^_^

We have a short chit
chat time before serving the next menu. During the sharing, I heard my stomach is roaring while we discuss about the nice foods topic. The next meal is Salmon
Festival, “ Aburi Salmon Maki ” and “ Salmon Zukushi ”. This is my first time in my
life that I can taste all kind of Salmon sushi, It's really " OISHII !!! I have to say sorry to
my “weight control program” as I have to stop for 1 day. All the sushi is well
organize and it show us the love of the Sushi Shifu (the sushi rice is added
with Vitamin E oil which it's good for our skin and also good for immune system). Aligato and Gambate
Master.

After taste all the Salmon plate, the next menu is “ Yaki Corn
Tempura ” is a juicy grilled corn with tempura. It is very special which you
hardly found at another sushi bar. I enjoy the crispy and crunchy bite feel.

I love all the
previously serve foods but next menu " Hotate Mentaiyaki " is today challenge for me. I seldom eat
scallops but surprisingly it's no fishy and the combination grilled
scallops with creamy codfish roe mayonnaise made the taste evolve to another
level. Of course, one is enough for me. The rest I give it to my partner KeaNu boy who really scallops/Sushi big fans.

Until now, I have been
tasted 6 menu and June told us there are more to come. I am so impressive with
the quality foods that provide to us. I started to feel my stomach
is abit full but I told myself, the best foods was continuous coming soon. So, I must keep on
tasting the next menu and guess what. “ Goma Soft Shell Crab Cha Soba ” is my
favorite food of the day. The buckwheat noodle with sesame dressing is so
delicious plus the crispy soft shell crab which has fire up my desire for more.
Pity KeaNu boy, I have take all his Soba.

mushrooms and vegetables in clear broth. I like the combination, it's look so tempting hot pot and the smoked duck taste Tender and sweet, I should have ask a bowl of rice to pair with this tasty duck soup .
