One has to ascend a short flight of metal steps to the tiny restaurant on level 2, made to look like the steps of an aircraft.

 The food came, and we had our Premium Assorted Sushi Platter (SGD$58.00) - consisting of a range of sushi with salmon, prawn, Toro (tuna belly), Uni (sea urchin), omelet, salmon roe etc. The seafood was fresh and the rice was cooked to the right texture - grainy but not hard nor mushy. We enjoyed these sushi very much.

 Next, we had the Sashimi Moriawese (SGD$58.00) - comprising of 3 slices of 6 different types of seasonal fish. Here we had Salmon, Sword fish, Tuna, etc. The sashimi was very fresh, and we were pleaesd with the thickness of each slice - taut, crisp and bouncy in their freshness.

 Then we shared the Lobster Mango Roll (SGD$30.00) , a long roll of goodness all swirled into one - omelet with sushi ginger, thick sliced cucumber, fresh mango, lobster salad and bonito flavored rice. The flavored rice had a gentle-but-distinctive fragrance to it, and the mango was sweet. The lobster was springy and sweet in its freshness, a delight for sure.

 Another dish is Nitsuke Fish which is actually braised fish. The fish is quite meaty and flavourful. The braised white carrot is very soft and fully soaked up the flavours. One letdown point is number of fish scales I find while eating this dish.

 On top of the set meal, we also have Soft Shell Crab Maki ($22) which is quite chucky with the freshly deep fried soft shell crab and taste quite unique with the spicy sauce. But feels that it is a bit expensive for just 4 pieces of maki.

Overall it is quite a unique place, but the price is a bit high than expected. But then again it is not easy to produce such good meal with such a small kitchen.

Sushi Airways – The Plane has Landed

In December 2012, a plane missed it's designated landing strip in Changi Airport Singapore. It was reported the plane that was piloted by Chef E.C. Wong, had managed to land safely in Kampung Glam area and luckily no one was hurt. As the plane was carrying fresh seafood and ingredients from Japan, the pilot has no choice but to open up a sushi bar from that point onwards and continue to serve the freshest ingredients flew in four times a week from Japan.

 As according to its name, the restaurant is designed based on the 1930s aeroplane stereotype. The kitchen, tables and sushi bar are made of shiny metal that are found in the galley of aeroplane. The restaurant can probably only seat less then 40 person. So to make sure you get a seat, you might want to call to make reservations during the peak period.

 Airways Garden Salad ($15) which is fresh garden salad with wafu dressing. The salad is light, refreshing, yummyy and delicious. The dressing simply binds the ingredients which include avocado, tamago and tomato. A good way to open up your appetite.

 For mains, we recommend their Mango Roll ($30) first – avocado, mango and flying fish roe. Each ingredients are generously prepare and served. You will notice the freshness of the mango to balance the slightly fiery fish roe. The sushi rice are mixed with other fresh flavourful vegetables, to create a unique flavour to the mango roll. Uniquely fresh.

 Sushi airways version of California Roll ($15), is the inside out version, where the rice is on the outer part of the roll and covered generously with flying fish roe. Using just white sushi rice, it simple and nice. The chef just let the ingredients speak for itself.

 For people who like some fizz in their drink, try their Passion Fruit Soda Smoothies ($6). Not sure where the smoothies come from, it is more like a Passion Fruit Soda Fizz. It is more on the sweet side, I actually have to dilute it further with some ice water.

 We boarded the plane on one Saturday afternoon, after the lunch crowds and there are only 4 tables occupied. The service is good, but the food took quite a while to come to the table, especially their rolls. As only Chef Wong and his assistant are preparing the food for the whole plane, the captain seek your understanding.

Overall, Sushi Airways food represent a creative, unique and fresh. Each dish prepared individually by Chef Wong and his co pilot, so you can expect the high and consistent standard. The price is reasonable, if you compare the quality of the food that you received. I'm looking forward to my next visit to try out their other fresh air flown ingredients. Bon Voyage!!!

Had California maki roll for $15, Kani mentai cheese for $30, Grilled fugu (pufferfish) for $16, and Kurobuta katsu for $ $15.90. Prices are a little steep, but definitely worth it!

Rice is specially marinated, and fish roe are juicy. Try popping one roe in your mouth, and you will know what I meant


What I like about their service was they specially went out of their way to get a simple cake, knowing reservation was for my birthday, and their desserts only consists of ice creams. Nice cake, as it wasn't just a pick'n'go attitude

 Sushi airways is located on the 2nd floor of one corner shop in Baghdad street. Never expect a Japanese cuisine around this area, so wondering if is nice. Did some research from their website and read some reviews and think is worth a try. As I'm looking forward to meet the "air stewardess" and experience something different as well.

I did not make any reservation, although I know this place has limited seats. So me an friends walked in around 8pm and we were just lucky enough to have 3 counter seats. So we can actually see clearly how the chef prepare our food.

We ordered few dishes for sharing.

1. Salmon tataki $15
- something like a salad with salmon sashimi topped with fresh leaves,lettuce and refreshing sauce. A good appetizer to start with your meal.
2. Mango roll $30
-the mango roll was huge in size compared to normal size, came in 8 pieces. The stuffing was the rolled egg, topped with big slice of mango and lobster. Nothing special, and a little pricey.
3. Sashimi small size $58
- there were 6 different type of sashimi and came in 3 pieces each. There were salmon( very thick slice), yellowtail, tuna,scallop, prawns, and fish egg (first time trying, very special and was good, like eating oyster)
-the sashimi was incredibly fresh, every bite melt in your mouth.
4. Grilled fugu $16
-not many Japanese offer this dish, so why not ordering here since they have it!
-very chewy and nice

We only ordered hot green tea at $3 for each pax.

Guess what, we were offered free desserts after our meal although just a tiny glass, but it was so sweet of them!

Service was good, food was good. There's even 10% discount for UOB card holder.

 The bar area is chic and stylish. Most of the restaurant comprises of bar tops unless you're lucky enough to get a table (That said, PLEASE MAKE A RESERVATION!!).

The menu is far from extensive, but they have everything you need here -a fine range of sushi and sashimi with the handful of hot dishes. We say skip that though -you're far better off filling your tummy with the makis and raw fish. Yum.

 The avocado roll was delightfully creamy and rich -it melts in your melt and the crunch of the fish roe elevates the taste to another level. For $25 though, I don't think I would pay to have this again even though this is one of the signature dishes. The creaminess, although pleasant, also ensured that I could not have more than 2 pieces at one seating. Too rich! But the avocado serving is generous -avocado fans will love it!

 The assorted sushi platter came with various sushi including shrimp, scallop, swordfish, tuna etc, I enjoyed the swordfish sushi the most -it was firm and the slice was thick. The fish was really fresh and the slice was much thicker as compared to other restaurants. The scallop was creamy yet delicate and every bite is sheer unadulterated indulgence. Fantastic.
The variety is fantastic but for $38 it's on the steep side... For the quality it's worth a shot though, especially if you're in a big group and wish to try an assortment. They also have a larger platter at $58!

 The salmon tataki is one of the best I've eaten. It's served with a tangy salad dressing and an assortment of lettuce and rocket. It is refreshing and perfect. The slices of salmon were slightly thin though, but for a salad, the thickness was just right. If it had been on its own however, a slighter thicker slice would have been preferred. The greens complemented the salmon to my surprise -the leaves weren't bitter because the salad dressing had adequately masked the unpleasant aftertastes.
We highly recommend this dish!

 Otoro (tuna belly) is perhaps my favourite part of the tuna. It has a creamier and slightly fattier taste to it -although I admit I don't quite like to have my tuna belly just anywhere. There are only select places that I'll have it, because sometimes the fatty taste just borders on disgusting when the fish isn't fresh enough. In this case, the tuna belly was paired with spring onions -a match made in heaven! The sharp taste of spring onion in small quantites complements the fatty tuna belly.

The total bill for 3 people came up to over $100, but it was really worth it! The place may have really limited seating and at certain junctures I felt slightly claustrophobic when people shifted around and they ended up standing really close to where I was seated (it's quite cramped!). Nevertheless, this place is DEFINITELY worth a try. Not exactly the cheapest place to have a sushi fix, it's one of those places you'll go to and be pleasantly surprised, blown away by the quality and the attentive service.

The staff paid attention to our likes and recommended dishes accordingly. She was also really patient when we were deciding between makis (she also told us that the mango roll is another signature, but avocado is also worth a shot! not really a huge fan of mango, my dining companions preferred the avocado) and kept refilling our cups of green tea whenever it went below the half-cup mark.

We highly recommend the salmon tataki and the assorted sushi
) Also, do make reservations because it gets really packed and there are very little tables (think: 3 to 4). Unless you don't mind the sushi bar (and even then, it's no guarantee that you'll get a slot too :/), go early and make reservations! We also liked that the name card of this place came in the form of "boarding passes" (don't have a photo of this, oops) where the name of the manager is printed under 'passenger name'.

A truly unique experience with fantastic food and service.

    Sushi Airways,as its name suggests,is an aviation themed Japanese restaurant and the design concept is brilliant-from the metal stairways to the ‘air stewardess’ to the luggage compartment thats chock full of liquor (sneaky airline!).The set lunch is pretty substantial and affordable-a main course,sesame salad and free flow of miso soup,rice and green tea for just $15.And a cute little scoop of royal tea ice cream on the house.

    It was a pleasant surprise to NOT taste plasticky food-always expected of kitschy themed concepts. My pan-seared teriyaki salmon was unami heaven-it was coated in a caramelish glaze (Mmm,Tom’s Palette salted caramel ice cream) and the skin was perfect.Ikea will weep in jealousy. I’m never a fan of sushi rice and that’s maybe because all my sushi comes from supermarkets-but the rice here is really bouncy and fragrant-more so with the generous sprinkle of sesame seeds on top. Miso soup was expectedly salty (I can’t imagine anyone handling a refill without getting treated in the hospital for salt overdose) but definitely tastes better than the one at Yoshinoya (That’s my only encounter with Miso Soup unfortunately).Fishing the rare cubes of tofu and slivers of seaweed was agonising and rewarding at the same time.
    \I didn’t get to try the fruit soda,which was at the lunch pricing of $2.99(u.p $6) because I was downing so much green tea.No sugar and very fragrant. MACHA BLISS. Didn’t expect the set lunch to include dessert, but hey,dessert came in the form of a scoop of royal tea ice cream. Tastes like Earl Grey sorbet,studded with tea leaves. Yummy.

    To complete the airline concept- their name card is fashioned in the form of a boarding pass. For early reservations.they even print your name on the ‘boarding pass’ which makes the flight experience even more authentic.
