Sushi Bay, Carlingford, NSW

My life is back!!! After a week of dreadful exams... Finally.. I am able to write again!!!!

Soft shall crab sushi

Grilled prawn

So, during exam, I have managed to come to several restaurants, including Sushi Bay, in Carlingford. It says that it is actually Japanese sushi, however, it tastes and looks so Korean. Every sushi they offer, they have Korean sauce to go with it, it tasted sweet, like a teriyaki sauce. Fortunately, this restaurant has sushi train!!!! Sometimes I am so upset coming to sushi restaurants without sushi trains, or the sushi train is turned off.

Fried Unagi

Aburi Salmon

 Anyway, some interesting menus were there. So I tried the fried unagi. It was a bit different. I mean... fried unagi?? We normally have fried salmon skin, or unagi sushi.. But it tasted good.

Then, I tried the grilled prawn with sauce on top. I think that was the highlight of the night. It tasted just right. The prawn was not over or under cooked. The sauce also has a very nice flavour to complement the prawn.

Aburi Scallop

I also tried the aburi salmon and aburi scallop. DO ORDER ABURI SALMON AND SCALLOP AT SUSHI PLACE! Anyway, they are my favourites, I always order them as the benchmark of sushi restaurants. I found their aburi salmon and scallop are quite good, quite unique with some sort of sweet sauce at the top, tasted like teriyaki sauce.

Soft shell crab roll

Now, the exciting part, the soft and shell crab sushi. There are two types: the big one with only avocado, sauce, rice and salmon roe, and the other one was the roll, with rice, lettuce, mayonnaise sauce and everything else. I think the big one, looks good, but does not taste that good, the other one tasted better. I really like the mayonnaise sauce they have. Sometimes mayonnaise can be quite overwhelming but this one does not.

Overall, the service was quite well and the food was alright. I will go back next time. However, it is quite pricy.....
