Whereas my partner and I usually go crazy on Jap food, on our most recent trip, we didn't get the chance to. Instead, we settled for the casual restaurants, sushi trains and supermarket-variety sushi... which really wasn't bad either! :)

Sushi platter from Marketplace (supermarket in Langham)So the verdict? Well, at some places, the sashimi and sushi is not as fresh or tasty as it is in Sydney (or atleast some parts of Sydney) but... Why is it so cheap?!?!?!

Not good to hear that the sushi isn't as fresh as you'd find in Sydney! Love it that you're featuring Japanese food. It's probably our most favourite cuisine when we dine out.
Hubby and I tried Izakaya Den (Melbourne) on the weekend..and I wanted to try the ox tongue dish but there were so many to try.. I couldn't order everything. I see you had beef tongue in HK.
I've been the Izakaya Den in Melbourne before. I distinctly remember that my camera ran out of batteries as did my mobile that day LOL
From memory, Izakaya featured good priced decent jap food - and jap beer. hehe
