Queen Sushi: Restaurant Review
Go there… Go there now…
On Queen Mary Rd. just east of the Snowdon metro station is perhaps the best sushi place EVER. Okay, there may be better SOMEWHERE, but i have been trying really hard to find it (using guidebooks in other cities and friends’ recommendations) to no avail.
The 7 Dragon specialty roll is perhaps my favourite - crispy yellow rice paper outside, crunchy tempura inside - and the BEST sauce. Did i mention that each specialty roll comes with its own unique sauce?
I never get the salad at a sushi place - all too often it is a little bit of iceberg lettuce covered in some sugary, thick salad dressing - it makes my skin crawl. The waitress - on what is now my sixth visit to Queen Sushi - convinced me to try their seaweed-cucumber salad. YUMMY!
I can also recommend the Oh My God roll - a hint of strawberry at the very end of each bite. Scrumptious. For sushi - it isn’t cheap, BUT well worth it as two people and two rolls makes for the need for a long walk.
But be warned, as my gentleman companion complained last night: “You’ve ruined the cheap avocado rolls i buy for lunch at the Sushi shop. I’ll never enjoy them again.” That’s me - raising people’s foods standards one person at a time.
