When I got to know about En Sushi, I thought to myself, another Japanese Restaurant in the area? There are District Sushi at Sunshine Plaza which offers cheap and good Chirashi Don and Barashi Tei which dishes affordable Japanese Food too. After visiting, my verdict is, En Sushi is going to introduce fierce competition for Japanese food in the area, since the food is affordable and tasty too.
As one step foot into the Japanese Restaurant, one will notice Sake display on the left. The tables weren’t neatly placed hence it doesn’t look organised. Functional homogenous wooden tables and chairs are in the restaurant, no comfy cushy chairs.
First item was impressive, the best Pitan Tofu ($4.90) I ever tasted. The pitan was a concentrated layer unlike most which is dilute. The Tofu was silky and tasty too.
Hotate Mentai Aburi ($12.90) is as delish. The smokiness from Aburi elevate the sweetness of the scallop and with Mentaiko, it complemented the sashimi.
If you like strong flavoured food, Chuka Karaage ($4.90) is good option. The seasoning is strong and rich.
Toss the Green Daikon Salad ($8.90) well like Chinese Lou Hei after pouring the sesame dressing into the salad. Other than crunchy from the vegetable, the flavour was contributed from the salad sauce. A good add was the lightly chewy jellyfish.
For Bara Chirashi Don ($10.80) fan, look no more. Turn to En Sushi for an affordable fresh bowl of Sashimi Don. The sauce was not too salty and yet appetising. Easily one of the best.
Alternatively, turn to Chirashi Don ($19.90) with premium Sashimi slices.
We tried 2 hot food, the Gindara Saikyo ($18.90), grilled Cod Fish with Miso and Sliced Beef Steak ($14.90 – 100g / $28.90 – 200g). Personally, I lvoe the former. The miso harmonized the rich oily fish flavour.
2 highly recommended rolls are the Spicy Ebi Fry Salmon Aburi Mentai Maki ($15.90) and Salmon Aburi Mentai Maki ($14.90), especially for the Mentaiko fan. Both are equally good.
Lastly was the Curry Katsu Spaghetti ($11.90). The curry isn’t the typical sweet curry but the savoury kind which I am sure will delight most.
