Japanese delights

Another delicious meal at Sushi Kuu (Wellington Street, Central, HK). Really like this place :-)



Seafood onsen egg







A nicely cooked onsen egg with perfectly runny yolk, floating in light bonito soy sauce and topped with ikura (tasted slightly smokey), decent uni and chewy cuttlefish. Overall pretty good.

















Always a good sign when you get to pick
your own sake cup...

Miso soup





That was a very good brown rice miso soup (with plenty of tofu cubes and tiny mushroom caps).








Aaaah... the sake fountain :-)


Grilled blowfish






Sweet, a bit sticky and slightly chewy. Quite good. Came with a dollop of excellent Japanese mayo (god I looove Japanese mayo...)












Grilled wagyu ox tongue





I just HAVE TO order this everytime I come here :-) Was still as yummy as ever.
Toro and spring onion cut roll




Good stuff - the toro was almost creamy and the onions present but not overpowering. Liked the presentation very much, especially the way the roll came with an "extra-topping" of toro.
Hokkaido crab tempura





Very nicely done. The crab was sweet and moist and we couldn't resist chewing & sucking on the legs. I obviously had to eat all the shishitos... :-p
Toban yaki sake steamed clams





Another of my favourite dishes at Sushi Kuu. Simple and perfect.
Mini shabu-shabu





Delicious broth, tons of mushrooms (MIAM) and green veggies. Even better, I could not detect any MSG (quite rare by HK standards).





Nice marbling, very beefy taste (Australian wagyu ?). Pretty good stuff.







Hokkaido milk pudding







The caramel sauce topping was delish, and so was the creamy and milky pudding. Tasted & approved!











Matcha ice cream






Not the best I've had in HK but still pretty good and refreshing to finish the meal.
