Kinsa Sushi – Xmas Set Showcase [MEDIA INVITE]

Kinsa Mosaic Set

Kinsa Sushi, the home grown sushi restaurant is welcoming the Christmas season by enhancing the popularity of Purple Rice Maki.

During the Tang and Sung Dynasties, purple rice was reserved only for the Emperors and inner circle as it believe in the health benefits of consuming the purple rice. With these benefits in mind, Kinsa Sushi brought to you the enjoyment of this purple rice in their menu.

Black Beauty

Black Beauty ($15.80). The purple rice has similar texture of the brown rice. It has the al-dente texture and slightly chewy as well. The creamy mayonnaise, three types of roe and the crispy fish use make the combination of flavour and texture of this maki unique and enjoyable at the same time. Best part, it is also healthy. Yum.

The Salmon Mentai Maki ($16.80) is a more toned down version compare to the black beauty. The mentai make it more creamy, while the combination of torched salmon and ikura exudes a more aromatic flavour to the maki. Not a common sushi roll indeed.

One of the signature dish in Kinsa Sushi is their Wagyu Don. This time around, they created Kagoshima A4 Wagyu Kamameshi ($26.80). Using the same Kagoshima A4 Wagyu beef, combine with purple rice to create the Japanese Kettle Rice dish. Though I like the savoury sauce use for this dish, I prefer it to be done using white rice instead of purple rice. I also find, the kitchen should be more daring in making the rice charred, so it has the smoky flavour like the Chinese claypot rice.

The star of this Christmas promotion is Kinsa Mosaic Sushi ($38.80). The star of the set is the nicely assemble 9 pcs of mini sushi roll, which the toppings include unagi, ikura, prawn and others. Completing the set, there are Century tofu and Lobster salad as the cold dish. The hot items will include Soft Shell crab, Fried Oyster, Pumpkin Croquette and Soba tempura. Followed by Miyazaki Mochi for desserts.
