Westmall does not have a wide variety of restaurants to choose from so my family settled for Sakae Sushi. The other choices are Mayim and Swensen's for chinese and western food respectively. We were not feeling very "western" and there was a long queue at Mayim.Got the seasoned seaweed and I must say, it is very, very seasoned. The colouring left a green tinge at the bottom of the bowl it did not feel good to know that the food was so processed and it must have had lots of preservatives. I wond
Got the seasoned seaweed and I must say, it is very, very seasoned. The colouring left a green tinge at the bottom of the bowl it did not feel good to know that the food was so processed and it must have had lots of preservatives. I wonder if seasoned seaweed in other Japanese restaurants are the same.
Salmon sashimi is a must-have when we go for Japanese food. We may have gone overboard with the amount of salmon there was on the table (there are more salmon dishes coming up haha) but back to the sashimi. I find that the sashimi slices have really gone thinner over the years. The colour of the sashimi is also a little dull and not as bright-looking as before. Would reconsider when getting sashimi slices from here next time.
There were some special salmon dishes for the month so we picked this salmon sushi with fish roe. The design of this was really cute but taste-wise only so-so.
Lastly, we had the salmon karaage which is basically fried salmon. This is normal but we always order it because it is important to have fish in our diets. Although Sakae tries to stay in the competition by always coming up with creative and innovative dishes, the quality of its food has really gone down over the years. There used to be a long queue outside the restaurant but the numbers have since dwindled to only about a handful. Having said that, it is still a very established restaurant that has so many branches that it does not need to be afraid of going out of business.
