Sushi Tei

This post is gonna be full of photos that will make you drool. So as promised, this blogpost will be about one of my favorite food and the place I usually go to settle my cravings in Penang. My current favorite Japanese restaurant in Penang goes to.... *drum rolls --> SUSHI TEI!!!! 

why? Cause they have excellent service, the food is good and price is reasonable. They used to have this RM8 add-ons for side dishes  which consist of 3 thick slices of salmon sashimi and a plate of sushi whenever you order one main dish. But sadly this promotion is not available anymore. Hope they have better promotional sets soon. ok,let the food pictures talk to you now!

Let's start with Sushi~

Ebi mentai

 This is basically mentaiko on prawns. Yes, I'm a big fan of mentaiko!!! If you haven't tried out mentaiko before I guess it's time you do cause one mouth of it and you will never wanna go back to days without mentaiko.

Tamago mentaiko

 Japanese omelette sushi with mentaiko on top again. 

Kaki Mentai Sushi

 gotta say this is the BOMB!!! fresh raw oysters with mentaiko on top! One bite on the oyster and it's juice burst into your mouth blending with the creamy mentaiko. It's a mouthful with creamy & rich flavors bursting in your mouth!!! This is a must try for all seafood lovers like me.

Salmon sashimi

Chawanmushi

 Then we move on to Japanese Hot Pot dishes also known as Nabemono.

Kami Nabe with beef slices

 This is the Japanese version of steamboat. The difference is the soup is on paper. This dish is more bland tasting with the sweetness of different vegetables. But the whole thing tastes YUMS when you start cooking the beef slices inside. Make sure you don't over cook your beef slices.

When it comes to Japanese selection of noodles, I somehow always prefer Udon over Ramen. So here comes the Udon series. One of my favorite things about Sushi Tei is that you can always opt to change your noodle selection and add more soup for your noodles for free.

Ebi Tempura Udon

Japanese Mushroom Udon

 Don't be fooled by the looks of this simple mini-sized-cute-fairytale-alike mushrooms! This dish might look simple with just mushrooms but the soup is just oh-so YUMMY!!! I've tried looking for these mushrooms in our local market but to no avail. :( I think it's imported. I always request for more soup whenever I order this!

Spicy Seafood Udon

 This is also super YUMS for seafood lovers! There is Japanese scallop, prawns and squids inside. It is mildly spicy with the sweetness of all the seafood.

Lastly, Gohan which is Nasi to us Malaysians! Asians must have their rice right??? No rice = No energy. Agree??? Put your hands up all rice people~

Sashimi Rice bowl

 All sashimi lovers should be drooling over this picture. This bowl of rice is packed with salmon slices and big fish roes. Imagine many bits of fish roe oil bursting in your mouth!

Unagi Rice Box

For all Unagi lovers it is a must have! Rice topped with many many many slices of Unagi.
