my favorite Japanese restaurant

I like Japanese food, especially sashimi... oh.. I can hear somebody saying.. eeeek! heehee.. it's raw fish and you dip into soy sauce with wasabi! In Perth you cannot enjoy the variety of sashimi... mainly.. two different parts of tuna, dhufish, octopus, salmon and something that I don't know in English! ooops... I used to enjoy so many different types of sashimi in Korea and I was told that same fish tastes different by the way a chef cuts! How interesting! Some eats sashimi too fast then they wouldn't know the taste... some takes too much wasabi with it... then its own flavor is ruined.. Have you ever chewed only steamed rice for a long time? It's really sweet at the end... just like that you need to enjoy its flavor slowly.. then your taste buds will realize its flavor... I'm not a professional food critic but this is how I enjoy sashimi.

My favorite Japanese restaurant in Perth is Shige at South Perth. I like sitting at the bar looking at the chef preparing dishes... very clean kitchen.. fast moving staffs.. long sharp sashimi knives... and sashimi is fresh! It's not that pricey but not cheap either.

Udon and soba are good there and all hot pot dishes are good too but lunch specials are not recommended.
