also, both the skin of the fried crabmeat and the maki sushi wasn't crispy enough. 

overall, i am quite disappointed with sakae sushi standard. it used to be not bad. May reconsider again to patronize sakae sushi in future.

Really had to eat some sushi the other day! I didn't waste any stomach space ordering the ramen, side sishes, etc. Devil's Maki ($12.99)This sounds really interesting and at first I thought it would be flaming hot. But nope! This maki came in a set of 8 and consisted of salmon, cheese, cucumber and lady's finger. Salmon sashimi was slightly seared, i like how it's like half cooked and half-raw.

Tried some interesting creations at Sakae the other day.This is the Hotate Bliss Set ($13.99) that comes with a bowl of rice and soup. The Hotate Bliss is made up of one scallop and a few chicken chunks on a piece of brinjal. I'm not sure how anyone can stuff the whole thing in their mouths so I ate it separately. It was ok overall.

This is the Salmon Kamaage ($2.29) which is basically the part of the salmon near the fin and also a piece of salmon meat. This is deep-fried and it is very crispy. Be careful when you eat it because it's hot!

This is the Salmon Fritters which closely resembles a potato croquette. I like how it was not just stuffed with salmon but had corn in it as well. The batter is light and fried to a crisp. It was both crunchy and soft at the same time.

Next, we also ordered the Chicken Cheese Katsu. I like that the katsu is not fried but grilled. However, the mayonnaise and cheese combination covering the chicken was a little heavy for me. The meat was soft and overall, it was tasty.

We also had the Chicken Cheese Tartar Katsu. It is essentially the same dish as the previous one, just with tartar in the mayonnaise. This one was more flavourful than the previous one and had a tinge of sourness to it. The additional tartar taste is the same as the tartar sauce in the McDonald's filet-o-fish.

Walked over to this Sakae sushi branch to satisfy my Japanese cravings with my mom! The restaurant is pretty quiet on a weekday, especially during lunch time so the service staff weren't running around at top-speed like when they were during dinner hours. Service was still very prompt nonetheless. We ordered the mandatory Salmon Sashimi (8 pcs - $9.99). The slices were very fresh, but sadly, weren't as thick as last time.

Next, came the Chicken Cheese Yakimono ($9.99). I like the cheese on top as it was really rich, but for those who are watching their weights, they should give this a miss as it is laden with a large amount of oil! The chicken was not skinned so the layer of fats is still there. There are about 6-7 pieces. Though, the combination was pretty good. Wished they used lesser oil though!

Lastly, we had the Salmon Karaage ($2.29). It had one piece of salmon cheek and another part of the fish. We usually eat the salmon karaage which was a lot simpler as the bones were already taken out! I kind of like this part (albeit the bones were a hassle). I felt that compared to the karaage, this had a tad less meat, but relatively, this part was quite delicious too!

Overall, I'm very satisfied with this meal at Sakae Sushi as usual. I just wished that the prices would decrease ): Or at least, they could serve a larger portion for the price!

I think their mentaiko salmon sushi creations deserve special mention; I can never stop at one, or two, or three.

I am a super big fan of japanese food, and especially enjoy eating the different types of sushi available in the restaurant menus. ONe of my all-time favourite will be the sashimi sushi. Large and thick slices of sashimi has been topped on the japanese rice cube, that is very fresh and chewy. Premium rice has been used to make their sushi which is also firm and fragrant.

Sakae Sushi used to be one of my family's favourite hangout when we were staying in Bukit Batok. Sadly, its standard has dropped for a certain period of time but once in a while we still visit it for some Japanese food. This is the Stir-fried Konnyaku Noodles (beef) for $9.99. The price was reasonable for the portion. The noodles were some sort of glass noodles that was springy and slightly crunchy.

Beef was soft and tender and there were mushrooms and sliced carrots as garnishing. Surprisingly, there was quite a lot of beef cubes and I think it might be able to feed 2 small-eaters.

I'm not sure if the staff has undergone hygiene trainings before but when I requested for one of them to refill the ginger slices, she simply left the mini tong on the table. I was rather disgusted by that action and didn't touch the ginger slices subsequently. Maybe it's time to step up on hygiene classes for Sakae Sushi staff.

Pepper Seafood Treasures - $6.99

This dish came in a cute presentation, with the bell pepper exactly as it is in the first picture. When you open the cheese, there's salmon, mushrooms and chicken (?) Not very seafood-y but it was good! The bell pepper was crunchy and fresh and had this very.. natural taste. The cheese melted nicely and added to the fragrance of the salmon and mushroom.

Seafood Hana Sushi - $8.99

I did not really like this dish because of the whitish thing at the top (raw squid if i'm not wrong), it tasted really mushy and had an awkward taste. I don't know how to describe it. The salmon sashimi that wrapped the sushi was pretty thin, about 2 pieces made 1 salmon sashimi, but they had about 3 pieces? So if i do the math, 9/2 = 4.5 pieces.. they sell 5 pieces for $6.99 if i'm not wrong, so this dish is quite worth it if you like the squid and salmon sashimi.

Salmon Sashimi (8pcs) - $9.99

Mandatory dish to order in a japanese restaurant!
The salmon sashimi was fresh.

Tip for ordering salmon sashimi: 8 pieces is a few cents cheaper than the 5 pieces one!

I like this outlet as the waiters are generally quite nice and although there seem to be a constant flow of newbies working, they were quite good in their service and were very eager to learn!
Hurry head down to try the monthly dishes before it's gone!

A must try in my opinion is the fried salmon. Surprisingly, they are not as dry as they sound, and were actually cooked to perfection. Soft and juicy on the inside, crispy on the outside. The serving is quite large too, for its price.

1. Beef, salmon, half-shelled scallop (since they placed it all in one plate)

The physical food was definitely NOT representative of the image in the menu. I thought it was going to be acceptable portions of each dish. But turns out the whole set is actually.. pretty small size.
The beef was cooked with kimchi, giving it a tinge of spiciness, but it was sour too. Kind of a weird mix with beef. But still acceptable.
Salmon was quite a thin slice, it was so flat, one piece felt like it can be eaten in 3 mouths.
The half-shelled scallop is one of my favourite amongst the set. I like the smokey flavour of it and there was mayonnaise on top of it to boost the flavour.

I like how they used the onion as the bowl! Very creative! This is a dish where one can eat the bowl as well! HAHA! It is similar to the normal chawamushi as it has crabmeat and meat inside of it.

The salad taste like the sakae salad, just that it was of a smaller portion. Quite nice as the vege were crunchy and the salad sauce was a nice mix.
The beansprouts were OK. It was cooked with lady fingers, onions and carrots. A little too oily for me, but still alright.

Edible rice paper was used for the vegetarian sushi. It was individually wrapped and contained cucumbers, carrots lettuce and mangoes. It was simple but tasted amazing. 9/10

Vegetable tempura was basically assorted vegetables (which came in a variety) which were covered in flour before being fried. They tasted crisp and went well with soy sauce 8/10

Potato Koroke which is one of the best dishes here. It contained potatoes as well as mixed vegetables. It was very crispy on the outside and left a very distinct taste. This can be compared to hash browns 9.5/10

The tofu here was succulent and was dipped in terriyaki sauce. It was a simple dish that left a lasting impression.

It is nice to find that the restaurants in singapore and finally having a couple of vegetarian options even when it comes to a sushi outlet.
