Enter the Dragon...Roll


Today my girlfriend and I went to our favourite all you can eat sushi restaurant, Sushi on 7. A place orginally recommended from a friend of mine. We returned today with empty stomachs and a song in our heart, or maybe that was the heartburn from being hungry? We sat down and our tea quickly arrived. We eat at Sushi on 7 almost every Monday, which is the best time to go because on weekends it's packed and the service is slow. Like most 'all you can eat' sushi restaurants, we order off menu's given to us. Becuase we eat there so often we don't usually need to look at the menu, which has over 190 items, and including the dinner only items.


I always have my miso soup, mixed seaweed salad to start and my girlfriend varries depending on her mood. What I've learnt from eating here is that if you enjoy eating rolls and sushi more than appitizers go for the rolls first. My last two trips I've order my regular rolls and sushi first, and end up eating more rolls then appitizers. This is a very helpful when you want to get the bang for your buck. Sushi on 7 is a very good value for the food that you get, for two people for lunch the bill comes to $30.07 with tax AND tip included. Dinner is roughly $50, again with tax and tip, plus they have more items for dinner.


A few helpful hints when eating at all you can eat sushi restaurants; Order a glass of water, it gives your taste buds a break from the soya. Only order what you can eat, or else the sushi police come after you and charge you more! Practice with chopsticks, even though some places have diagrams on how to use them, it isn't always as easy as it looks. Try to avoid wearing white, becuase if you sit around a person who is learning to use chopsticks your gonna get covered in soya. Ask questions and try something new (unless your fluent in Japanese, you probably don't know what everything is), so ask and you might come across something amazing.


Food: 8/10, Service: 7/10, Number of trips made to buffet tables: Since it wasn't a buffet stlye it doesn't apply. But I had 24pc pc sushi/handroll, plus lots of apps.


Happy Eating

I love this place. I remember in the beginning how the staff was so amazed you ate so much.. now I think they are used to it. How would we live without Sushi on 7?

I'm like that with miso soup too, doesn't feel like a real JP meal without the soup.

It's so true, with out having miso soup is like having a cheese burger without the chesse. It just ins't right.
Thanxs for checking out the blog.
