Having Lunch And Dinner At Sushi Zanmai

After having a light meal at Sushi Zanmai earlier, I just can't get out the awesomely fatty tuna taste that lingered in my mouth from my mind. What to do? A revisit to the restaurant, that's what! This time, we went during lunch and dinner (yes, two visits on the same day) That's how good the sushi were. If you have budget constraints, better don't go eat sushi there early in your trip or you might end up coming here everyday and blow your budget eating everything!
This time, instead of sitting at the counter watching the chef in action, we sat at a table. Just fill up an order form on which items you want and the quantity and pass it to a waiter. You can always ask the waiter's help if you are unsure about ordering. They were friendly, cheerful and really helpful despite a busy restaurant.
 
The reason we wanted to sit at a table this time was because we were feeling quite conscious about taking photos under the watchful eyes of the chef. Not that they didn't like it because they didn't say anything or look annoyed - more like curious at us, acting like typical tourists.
 
Raimie's lunch - salmon roe maki sushi at 250yen. You get to choose to eat it temaki style too. He had a light lunch because we bought something at McD for him earlier (and gotten Yatterman toys with the Happy Set too).
 
Mom and dad had these. Snow crab at 198yen apiece, fatty tuna at 198yen (normal price 398yen), sardine (I think) - can't remember at 98yen, egg at 98yen and last but not least seared fatty tuna at 198yen (398yen normal price). My mouth and stomach were really happy that day.
 
Then, for dinner we went to the restaurant again. The restaurant's exterior at night. By this time, the waiters recognized us already. LOL
 
 
A dinner feast for us. We ordered seared tuna (198yen), egg (98yen), scallop (198yen), fatty tuna (198yen), salmon (98yen) and a set of chirashi sushi course. Rice topped with fresh prawns, sardines, tuna, squid, eel, eggs, salmon roe, etc and came with a big bowl of miso soup at 1,480yen. It was sooooo yummy.

Itadakimasu!!!

I have to warn you though. After eating good sushi in Japan, you'll probably end up comparing any sushi served back home infavourably. Zaini absolutely refused to go to Sushi King nowadays! :D
