Jun Sushi: Tempura Prawn roll
Posted by Bone at February 25th, 2008
I had some kaitenzushi last night at a restaurant near Causeway Bay. It was really good, and I managed to polish off 9 dishes (which left me with quite an impressive tower by the end of my meal). I had a Sapporo with it, and its weird how there’s a difference between Sapporo in England and here, since I thought the ones Neil had bought for me at Japan centre were imported.
I didn’t eat anything too bizarre, except for one maki roll that can best be described as tasting like hay. Upon closer inspection there seemed to be lots of tiny dried shrimp on the top, which explains why it was so dry. I also ordered a basket of deep fried sesame soft boned chicken. Yes, I ate chicken bones.
Total cost: HK$228
I think you’ll find the Sapporo tastes exactly the same, it’s just the effects of all the MSG you’ve been eating kicking in. Be careful, if the lights on the side of sky scrappers start dancing, thats when you know the MSG has built up to dangerous levels and it’s time to seek help/a full English.

Ha, so I guess you know what the symphony of lights is!
Transformers was awesome, for the first 15 minutes I had the entire IMAX to myself, then three other people came in.
It turns out that post-midnight eating options are limited to McDonalds, ready-meals from 7-Eleven and places with no English menus. Luckily I found a 24 hour restaurant just around the corner from the hotel that does takeaway and had an English menu outside, so I’m chowing down to spare ribs in sweet and sour sauce with special fried rice (HK$64)
