The main reason I am here for this buffet is the unlimited serving of the Sashimi Moriawase (Assorted Raw Fish). Mitsuba has more variety than most other all-you-can-eat places like Hamachi (Yellow Tail), Shime Saba (Vinegared Mackerel) and Hokkigai (Surf Clam), typically not available on the menu at most other buffet locations. The raw fishes are sliced thick and they were just so fresh, sweet and succulent that we kept ordering more plates of them.
Among the various cuts of sashimi from the menu, I can’t helped but kept picking up piece after piece of my favourite Mekajiki (Swordifsh); dipping it into the soya sauce and wasabi condiments, before sending it into my mouth. The light saltiness of the soya sauce brought out the sweetness of this firm flesh raw fish. Umai...
Though one is not supposed to eat sushi at a buffet to maximum the “ROI” (Return on Investment), I went ahead and gotten the Sake Aburi (Seared Salmon Sushi with Mayonnaise), Sake Mentai Aburi (Seared Salmon Sushi in Mentaiko Sauce) and Sake Mayo Ball (Salmon Sushi Ball with Mayonnaise). Big mistake!!! All three were a total disappointment due to the fact the sushi rice was too mushy and not well seasoned.
