Since I wasn't going to get to see Erica on her actual birthday (she's gone for 3 months, so long lah) I decided to make her an early bday card and have sushi din din at Ebisu. I made the card bright and cutesy because... it matches her house!! LOL
Ebisu was really nice! It's a contemporary/sushi sports bar with a touch of class! They had a full bar where you can order drinks and flat screens left and right.The prices of the food was not bad either and the menu had great selection and choices!
The baby fried octopus was perfect. The batter did not overpower the taste of the octopus.
I've never had Agedashi Tofu with seaweed before and I liked it. I think the tofu should have been sliced into smaller cubes because the cornstarch layer just fell apart when I picked it up. The cornstarch/flour was too lightly dusted in my opinion. There wasn't enough crunch and the sauce tasted a little water down.
At the top of the photo is their Atlantic Salmon marinated in soy based olive oil topped with citrus white wine mayo and flavored with garlic chips. Let me tell you, this dish had a unique kick to it, you could taste every flavour! As always, I think Salmon and citrus flavours are the perfect combination.
In the middle is the BC Blazer. It tastes like the name. It was like woahh....haha There's crab meat and avocado wrapped in seaweed and atlantic salmon topped with unagi sauce, Japanese mayo, and tuna flakes. I could only handle a few of these babies because they filled me up pretty quickly!
