Great sushi meal at Midori Sushi (Umegaoka Sushi No Midori Sohonten) @ Mark City, Shibuya, Tokyo

Midori Sushi located at 4th floor of Mark City shopping mall in Shibuya, Tokyo. This sushi restaurant is quite famous and serve great sushi. Be expected to queue at least 30 minutes and the restaurant is full throughout the day. However, they have a very well organized number queueing system. Once you get the number from the queue system, you can walk around or shopping until your number being called. If you are not around when your number is called, the seat is gone. I came here just to try their premium ala carte menu which not only delicious but excellent. The staff were friendly and accommodating even though I don't speak Japanese. The food is fresh and the sushi that I ordered even better than the one that I had in Tsukiji market. Its a convenient place to have great sushi meal without having to spend a lot. Reasonability priced sushi restaurant.

Taste:10/10(Excellent. This is the best sushi that I ever had with fresh ingredient and amazing premium conger eel. The plenty of salmon roe sushi is excellent with taste salmon roe which each bit accompanied by pleasant burst of fish oil from the roe).
Price:6/10(Moderate. With such a good quality meal, I spent around 2,500 Yen for all the meals below. One premium eel(630 Yen), two plenty of salmon roe sushi(400 Yen each), one extra fatty tuna sushi/toro(500 Yen) and fish meat(500 Yen)).

Amazing tasty fish paste from Warung Aziz Satar @ Cukai, Terengganu

I went to Terengganu on duty trip and was recommended by my colleagues to try satar in this shop. Once I tried it, I really fall in love of the food here. The little pieces of fish paste wrapped with burned pandan leaves taste really good. The natural pandan leaves wrap brings in the good roasted aroma to the fish inside. Do savour this traditional local made delicacy if you happen to be in Kuala Kemaman, Terengganu.

Taste:9/10(Very good. The roasted fish paste or known as satar is delicious and contain sweetness of fresh fish and dash of spiciness).
Price:9/10(Cheap. Each stick with 10 pieces at MYR5.00. Its good to eat as it is or my favourite is to eat it with bread).


This is what they called as satar. Roasted fish paste. Very delicious fish paste with some condiments and chili. Beware if you can't take spicy food.

Besides satar, they also have roast squid, roast fish, roast sting ray and roast glutinous rice. All wrap with banana leaves before roasting to give special aroma to the food.

Assorted roasted seafood.

Roasted squid.

They also have otak-otak and this shop featured in "Best In The World" TV food show.

This is how the satar (fish paste) content look like.

Taste so good. Must tapau (take away) home.

Fried squid.

Delicious keropok lekor from store beside.

Taste good with bread.
