Itacho Sushi (板长寿司) is currently holding a Premium Hokkaido Scallop Festival with up to 30 per cent off their range of innovative scallop items. As a seafood lover, I can’t afford to miss this chance to savour the shellfishes. Heading to the branch at ION Orchard on a weekday morning to beat the peak lunch time crowd.

Flipping through the online menu via the tablet, I quickly zoomed in to the Scallop Sushi promotion page and started sending the items to the cart. Took a slightly longer time to decide which are the dishes I wanted as they all look equally delectable. In the meantime, scooped out a small spoonful of wasabi and poured soy sauce over it.

Didn’t have to wait for long before the first plate of sushi was served. From the left are two each of Roasted Salmon Skin Soya Sauce (S$1++ each) and Roasted Salmon Skin Soya Sauce with Cod Fish Caviar Mayo (S$1.20++ each) sushi. The salmon sushi were melt in the mouth soft and so yummy. If not because the restaurant limits each customer to just two pieces per type, I would have order it over and over again.

The three scallop sushi on the right side of the plate are Roasted Scallop Sushi (S$3.50++), Roasted Scallop with Black Truffle Sushi (S$3.90++) and Roasted Scallop with Cod Fish Caviar Sushi (S$3.70++). All three of the scallop items were so fresh and sweet tasting just like those I had in Hokkaido. The toppings on the two of the sushi enhanced the overall flavours to raise it up a notch.

The next plate I ordered is the 3 Kinds Scallop Sushi Set (S$5.80++). The scallops are un-torched and came with different toppings of tobiko mayo (seasoned flying fish roe), black truffle (paste form) and lobster salad with avocado. Again the raw scallops were just so yummy and the toppings complemented the whole package.

The last dish to be served is this Baked Scallop Spicy Salmon Mayo Egg with Rice (S$8.40++). A beautiful dish topped with six scallops, an egg and baked till golden brown. The creamy and spicy salmon mayonnaise completely covered the white rice underneath. The oozing egg yolk added a wholesome goodness to the rice dish. Even as I walked to the cashier to pay the bill, I am already planning on the next trip to try out the other dishes on the menu.

This spring vegetable baked rice was delicious. Even my meat loving husband liked it although he would have liked it better with a steak 😂 I saw it prepared on the Today Show. It’s also pretty easy to prepare. The garnish salad is absolutely a necessity for unami flavor. I used cilantro in the garnish salad, but not parsley and it was fine that way. Will definitely make this again and can easily serve it as a side dish if you want to serve meat.

Kitchen Quest: Baked Rice with Tomatoes

Did you know you can bake rice? Makes sense I suppose, you can bake pretty much anything if it’ll fit in the oven. Fairly certain I read once that roast chicken is actually baked chicken, by true definitions. I’m not looking it up to check though. Do your own research. (more…) “”

Even though there is a Saizeriya (サイゼリヤ) at Sun Plaza nearer to my place, we have only visited it once or twice. The reason is because of the free shuttle bus service to Sembawang Shopping Centre that picks and drops us from the very same bus stop in front of our block. Being a fussy eater, mum always goes for the Black Pepper Chicken Spaghetti (S$5.90) since she doesn’t fancy the other dishes.

First time trying out the Curry Chicken Baked Rice (S$6.50). I am surprised they served this on a hotplate and not in a baking dish. While the cheesy rice is decent with just enough curry flavours to whet the appetite, the chicken tenders were on the drier side.
