Of course, we couldn’t leave @kazoku_japanese_cuisine without having another one of their dons, which is covered by #burpplebeyond one for one deal. It might be kinda basic, it might be entirely predictable, but we simply had to try the Aburi Mentai Salmon Don ($11.90 nett).⠀

As you might’ve guessed from my previous reviews, the sashimi was faultlessly fresh and were sliced generously thick. The blowtorching released the fragrance of the omega-3 rich oils in the salmon while altering the texture, giving it a softer, crumblier mouthfeel when chewed upon. Of course, the star attraction is that savoury, creamy umami Mentaiko mayonnaise, which had its deliciousness amplified due to it being scorched by the blowtorch.⠀

Kazoku is an incredibly affordable place to satiate any hankering you have for sushi or sashimi, and it turns into outright robbery when you use Burpple Beyond for their rice bowls. Once again, thank you for the hospitality, @kazoku_japanese_cuisine & @burpple!
