Food Review: Sushi Tei

Food Review: Sushi Tei

I always look forward to Tuesday as it is the only day of the weekdays that I get to meet my boy for dinner for an early mid week break. Plus, I hardly get to see him lately, like twice a week max =.=

I was not exactly in a good mood the whole day and was quite tired that I actually forgotten that I was hungry =.= Additionally, I was craving for some dim sum but was unable to find any places that serve nice dim sum at night. With no other choices in mind, I went along with the suggestion to visit our frequent dinner place Sushi Tei at Thomson Plaza for dinner.

We are such regulars that the counter staff could recognize us easily. We chose counter seats as usual and started looking through the menu. For this month, there is a Hokkaido special menu and we decided to try the Wagyu pasta with tan tan meat and onsen egg for a change, unagi maki, spicy salmon maki and the usual - Sushi Tei salad with sesame and Sushi Tei dressings.

My mood was soon lifted when all the food started arriving. Food therapy works the best for me! See how colourful they are! :D

The Sushi Tei salad came and we mixed in the dressings and started our "lo-hei" practice. Lol, the people sitting next to us might have thought that we had gone crazy~. I always preferred the Sushi Tei at Thomson Plaza because the servings are so generous and the food are of good quality compared to some of the other Sushi Tei outlets I had went to. Can you see the generous chunks of salmon, squids and tuna in the salad?

The spicy salmon and unagi maki were crunchy with cucumber in each of the maki roll. Two simple dishes yet they were done perfectly! :)

The star was the Wagyu Pasta with tan tan meat and onsen egg. For those who does not know what tan tan refers to, it refers to minced pork. The onsen egg looked like poached egg (in Western context). The presentation of the dish was beautifully done. The taste of the pasta was surprisingly good with a hint of spiciness. We polished off all the pasta including the gravy to the last drop. Thumbs up for this dish ^_^

Really enjoyed the food and company and hopefully the Hokkaido menu is still available the next time I visit!
