At $12.80, this is probably one of the more affordable, value-for-money barachirashi around, and I like the sashimi/rice ratio.

Just nice for a satisfying lunch without feeling like I over ate, and still had space for chawanmushi ($3.20, smooth and tasty but could do with a little more ingredients - only had a mushroom slice and shrimp)

Chunks of prawns/ salmon/ tuna/ octopus with ikura were relatively fresh, evenly mixed and not overly seasoned, and I loved the sesame flavour of the rice. All was good except some of the tuna cut didn’t seem quite right with the tendon(?) present, which was too tough to chew so the texture was ruined for me when it came to those pieces. Quite a pity but I’d say it was still a satisfyingly decent bowl overall without burning a hole in your wallet so I get why there was still a queue past-lunch. I didn’t have to queue so it was quite shiok 😂
