It's been almost a decade since we were first/last at Sakari Sushi. This was again lunch.
Ordered the green tea iced because the weather was blistering. These tasted more diluted than they looked. $3 a cup lightly murky green iced water?
Lunch came with salad with goma dressing. I kinda liked this for some reasons. Maybe it's because it's well tossed and chilled.
Chawanmushi was like half filled. Or half empty depending on your perspective. Only kamaboko and some mushrooms. Dashi was weak.
I have the impression that their barachirashi felt more premium in the past. That's just an impression. Still tasted nice though with the finely diced seafood. Portion felt small.
Another option for lunch was their mini donburi which included both aburi engawa don and a kaisen don. I thought this felt more satisfying compared to the barachirashi this time round.
The aburi engawa bowl was sublime. Didn't expect to find bits of chopped squid in it. This was smokey, melty with the fat of the fin over the rice and well salted. Nice. 👍🏼
The other mini bowl was a small kaisen don. Wasabi's grated. Not bad - had a cleaner taste compared to the engawa.
