![]() Monday to Saturday: 12pm to 2pm 6pm to 8. Flame Seared Salmon Trout With Cod Fish Roe on Hokkaido Sushi Rice. It is probably the cheapest Bara-Chirashi Don in the city area and is worth a try if you are looking for a cheap version. Assorted Seafood Slices with Otoro on Sushi Rice. Will I Return Again? I visited District Sushi without huge expectations and true enough, the food is decent value but not memorable. Rants The cheap price point may be a draw for curious diners in the initial phase, but the way to go in the long run is still to step up on the quality of the offerings even if it means raising prices by 10-20%. Other dishes on the menu include donburi options like Aburi Duck Teriyaki (S$12), Grilled Eel (S$12) and Chicken Katsu (S$12). That said, the price point is definitely an alluring draw, especially for the target market in the Bugis/Bencoolen area.įor a side dish, the Salmon 3-ways Sushi (S$12) is a decent option, though the price is relatively less value for money as opposed to the Bara-Chirashi Don. At a similar price range, I much prefer the version at Sushiro which is more value for money for me. The rice is not as fragrant here, while of quality of the sashimi chunks are at most passable. ![]() For the price, the portions are really quite decent for me though I can’t say the same for the quality. I went straight for the Bara-Chirashi Don (S$13) topped with salmon, tuna, octopus and poached prawn. The Food The menu is a 2-page offering of mainly Bara-Chirashi Don, Kaisen Don, Sushi and Donburi. The good news is that there is no GST and service charge here. The main draw of District Sushi, other than the sushi offerings is no doubt the Bara-Chirashi Don, which created quite a stir back in last November and December when it was only going at S$10 nett. The space is a no frills setting, with simple interior and a relatively young dining audience given that NAFA is right opposite.

I headed down to District Sushi, a two months old restaurant located at Sunshine Plaza to rival Sushiro at Thomson Plaza. Because food is life and travel is to live. Hi! I’m a Singaporean girl and I happily spend all my money on food and travel. 20 pieces for $18++, what a great deal! And so fresh, soooo good! The highlight though was the platter of salmon sashimi. Of course, Koh Sushi and The Sushi Bar are unbeatable (to-date) when it comes to rolls but the special maki here is definitely worth a try! I love the contrasting texture from the crispy salmon and soft anago. Other than going cray-cray over bara/chirashi, I’ve also had a ridiculous infatuation with maki rolls. It may not be the best nor my favourite, but the generous slices of fish were very fresh! Price tag being equal, I much prefer Hokkaido Sushi’s chirashi don to Manzoku’s. ![]() Sushi rice plus raw seafood makes me really happy in any form. I loved all the sea creatures in this bowl. Fish was fresh enough but the rice was strangely sweet and wasabi too “fake” (I mean artificial)… Bara Chirashi Don (Set 29): Sashimi of Blue Fin tuna, amberjack, scallop, Scottish salmon, simmered sea eel, simmered shrimp, egg, and salmon roe atop sushi rice. The chirashi don had thick slices of salmon, tuna, swordfish and amberjack, a couple of commercially produced (I guess) tamago, and a spoonful of ikura. The anago don was better – four long and tender (albeit thin) anago almost spilling out of the bowl, a beautiful sight!Īgain, my expectations were (very) high due to the raves I read on Instagram (I’m an addict!!) lol. Lunch sets come with salad, chawanmushi and mochi for dessert, but I can certainly do without the frills (not even a mochi fan ha) if that means more fish on slightly dry sushi rice. I enjoyed dinner at Sumiya very much but lunch was a tad underwhelming, especially when there were so many gorgeous photos of the bara kaisen don on my Instagram feed. … which (un?)fortunately didn’t manage to displace Hanare and Koji from my heart. ![]()
